Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

we needed a one night stay prior to us driving to the outer Hebrides....rooms were comfy, downstairs restaurant was a real bonus and excellent for an early morning breakfast....

United KingdomThere were quite a lot of stairs
The hotel is a short distance from the Zoo and on the bus route to the airport. The room was lovely and a good size. Staff were friendly. Dispute being busy in the pub, the food and drink were served quickly after ordering on the app. The same was true for breakfast which is not in the room rate but available in the pub.

United KingdomHad a room at front so could hear traffic in early morning. One day seemed really busy so get a back room if light sleeper. Had a double room with a small double bed. Okay but used to more room and room was plenty big enough for bigger bed.
Excellent location. 20 min bus ride to Edinburgh centre on well serviced route, even at night for a late night concert out. A few other shops and restaurants around if needed. That said Wetherspoons have plenty of food options and excellent beer choice. Best value around. All the staff were friendly and efficient. Near the Zoo and Murrayfield but all other attractions within a bus ride. Even went to seaside at Portobello on bus that goes past hotel for £2.00 each way

Breakfast was optional in the bar and was great value as per normal witherspoons menu. Location great for bus into city centre. We appreciated getting a space for car in car park.

Lovely stay for one night with one of the better Wetherspoons pubs on the lower floor, enjoy a foaming pint of ale here and you might not leave! I was on the second floor at the front of the hotel but barely heard the traffic outside (the foaming ales may have helped)!

Great location in nice part of the city. Easy 20min bus ride from Waverley. Lovely room, super comfortable bed and pillows and nice welcome tray including bottles of water and biscuits. The pub itself is nice with pleasant outdoor area at the front. Couldn't fault if, would choose it over Travelodge or Premier Inn.
