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 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 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.).

The hotel was well located, the staff were very friendly and attentive. The courtyard room was large and well appointed. The breakfast was enjoyable. Hotel residents are able to access the racecourse which was interesting to see.

United KingdomCheck in system (lady was not helpful). 20 minutes wait for 2 cocktails. Dinner room was like a playground with kids running about with balloons. My husbands meal was good, mine was not. Sauces out a carton the mushroom starter sauce was the same as the chicken sauce, bland. Never checked on, no desserts offered. I would definitely stay in the hotel again however never eat their again.

United KingdomWhere have the tea pots gone at Breakfast ? Hate making individual cups, in the cup, often more than one cup each. Up and down , up and down. awful idea. Similarly would prefer small milk jugs even if under new 'self service' system, we have to self fill from larger communal jugs. Similar up and down story. We needed an extra cereal bowl on the table just to collect the waste products, tea bags, butter wrappings, marmalade tubs etc. Some sort of on table waste receptacle should be included in the new standard. Room 117: Toilet makes a sound like a Clyde ferry horn leaving harbour, when flushing.(pipe noise quite loud, esp. at night) Constant noise throughout the day and night from heat exchangers below window, rumbling away, like a generator, this needs suppressing. (needs a muffler or sound deadening) Worst feature of room 117 ! Check it for yourself. It's Poor. No swimming pool or SPA facilities.
Arrived late from flight, missed dinner but staff organised some excellent sandwiches and nibbles plus a drink from the bar. Would not expect better service, anywhere, under the circumstances. 5* customer service. New 'buffet' style Breakfast was a surprise: Mixed feelings about that. Decided not to partake as we chose Eggs Benedict from the menu. Result: Freshly cooked eggs and bacon, to order, Just like it should be ! ....Sublime ! Buffets are just OK, but food quality and warmth is never the best, it just sits too long generally. Hard bacon, dried sausage and rubbery eggs, often the result, not exactly what is expected of a 4* establishment. Careful with this, needs tuning. Room: Bed comfort was excellent. Wife slept like a log...! I slept well too but was woken early by the noise. (see below.) Free high speed internet....super...great ! Free parking. (despite the sea gulls)....WOW !! Savings from the airport parking allowed us to upgrade our room. (117) Free EV charging......as an E driver myself this was....unexpected, even if only @ 7KW/h.... BRILLIANT !!! and more to come! Needless to say...we will be back for more, hopefully a little quieter next time, but overall....Unbeatable package as it is right now. We loved it.

United KingdomI recently had the pleasure of staying at the Western House Hotel in Ayr. The room size was fantastic plenty of space and really comfy bed. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, always going above and beyond to ensure our needs were met. Highlight was the breakfast with a great selection and really tasty haggis! Overall, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Ayr.
