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...).

United KingdomThe shower, only because it was roasting and obviously faulty. We couldn’t get it to cool down but part from that everything else was great.
The room, parking, food, friendlessness of staff and location were great. Also we travelled with dogs and they could have not been helpful enough. The parking is a £3 charge per night but at least you have space and safe parking.

United KingdomBeing short, the bed was a little high for me. The chairs in the dining room were too heavy for me to pull in.
Centrally located and a fifteen minute walk from the train Station down hill. A five minute walk from the back of the hotel to the bus station. The staff are very friendly and helpful and are willing to go above and beyond.

United KingdomThe receptionist on arrival lacked interest and courtesy and as the first to greet customers, needs to be re-trained in customer services, a smile costs nothing!
The bedroom was clean and well presented. The bed was very comfortable. Nice selection at breakfast.

United KingdomNo lift and our room was on the 3rd floor, although it is appreciated that the building is listed. It was a struggle to carry bags and walk the dog up 3 floors.
Central to town and not too far from the motorway entrance route to Scotland.

United KingdomNothing to really complain about. Lounge area was also used at the restaurant, so not too much seating to just relax. Yet far from a major issue.
Very friendly staff from the moment I arrived. They were very keen to assist, even when room wasn't quite ready (I was early). The bar was a nice addition & had a modern feel. Which added a nice contrast to the traditional feel of the actual hotel. Breakfast was very good. Room was nice, if a little small, yet I did choose a "small" double! Great location in the middle of town.
