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.).

Ellen House B&B was a perfect choice in Matlock. Great location. Rooms very comfortable with everything you could need and a bath a rarity these days. Breakfast was amazing with so much attention to detail. Hosts lovely and know how to run a B&B with nothing they hadn't thought of.

United KingdomThere was nothing to not like!
Everything was wonderful! Anne and John made us feel at home and made my mum's birthday so much more special. We loved all the little touches and the breakfasts were gorgeous and kept us going for most of the day! The location is perfect for walking into Matlock and the train station is so close too for little day trips. They were very helpful in recommending places to visit and eat and for accommodating us when we had an early check-in. the room was sparkling clean and comfortable. We loved it and felt safe there.

We stayed at Ellen house for five days, the breakfast choice was incredible, nothing was too much trouble , Anne was the perfect hostess and John was an incredible cook. the extra touches in the room made it special too, homemade flapjacks , lovely toiletries , beautiful soft white towels, plenty of supplies to make your own drinks. everywhere was immaculately clean . Our room had a door that opened onto the garden so watching the birds feed and sing in the morning was wonderful

AustraliaThere is nothing that could be improved on. Like most B&Bs the room was a little small for large suitcases but not tiny. Rooms are up one fight of stairs which could be an issue for some but not for us.
Ellen House has a lot to offer - very friendly and knowledgeable hosts, spotlessly clean rooms and common areas, parking (which is very hard to find in Matlock), a very convenient location - a short walk from everything and generally just a lovely place to stay. The breakfast was freshly prepared to order and delicious. Homemade preserves with breakfast were a special treat as were the home made flapjacks (YUM) in our room each day. Ellen House is also very close to the train station if that is how you travel.

I've never seen such a vast choice of cooked breakfasts in a B&B. We loved the eggs Benedict and mushroom omelettes, full English - everything in fact. The bed was extremely comfortable and the decor interesting and attractive. Our hosts were very hospitable.

Location is brilliant, can walk straight into town or even walk into matlock bath ( takes around 30 mins) or train station is about a minute walk away 😊

Room, facilities and hospitality were second to none in this quiet, family run residence. The attention to detail was impressive and our room/bathroom very clean and well appointed. Breakfast was great and afforded a good variety of homemade and locally sourced produce. Located just 5 mins walk to town centre and railway station. Really cannot fault and will return.
