Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomIt’s not a dislike, more advice that those with mobility issues may struggle to access rooms. It’s an old property with steep, narrow stairs.
It’s cosy, lovely big room. The pub is like a warm hug & the food is excellent, as are the staff.

United KingdomOnly thing was the walls are very thin between rooms and we could hear the conversations next door and below in the bar. However, they very thoughtfully provide little ear plugs if you need then!
Beautiful old inn full of characture, the room was beautiful and bed very comfy. The breakfast was delicious (veggie version was really tasty). Location is brilliant, in the heart of the town on a very quaint street, with all the historic sites a few minutes walk away. Would definitely stay again. The staff were really friendly and helpful.

United KingdomFor two octogenarians the climb to the bedroom in the attic was rather challenging. However, staff were on hand and insisted on carrying our luggage to and from the room.
It oozed atmosphere and was warm, cosy and popular. The staff were always attentive and made you feel welcome and valued. The food was very very good-breakfasts were enormous and the chicken pie evening meal from the menu was exceptional !

AustraliaYou will have to sit in the bath for a shower due to the roof but I did not mind this at all.
Very country and historic feel to the property. Our room (Dover) was fantastic and spacious. I would not recommend this room if you struggle with stairs. The room has a bit of a slope to it which I loved as it added to the uniqueness of the property. Friendly staff, excellent food and great breakfast. The location is perfect for exploring with many pubs, shops and restaurants within close walking distance. Parking is £2.50 a day and a short walk away. You can’t park there overnight on Tues and Weds until 17:00 due to a weekly market but there are other car parks not far.

United KingdomNo real negatives. It is a pub so it could be noisy if you were hoping for a quiet early night but that was not an issue for us. There is no onsite parking but there are car parks which aren’t expensive nearby.
Character property, full of interesting details including the sloping floor in our room, Hythe. Loved the decor and our room was very spacious and comfortable. The location is excellent. The staff we met were all very welcoming and friendly.
