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.).

Views from the hotel are spectacular. Beautiful traditional hotel staff very attentive staff service excellent. Lovely to be served drinks in the traditional drawing room whilst choosing from the menu & then have canopies while the chef made a beautiful dinner. Breakfast was also chosen from menu in the dinning room & freshly made.

United KingdomNothing, it delivered everything it said it would and was excellent. Plenty of parking and a short walk into town.
Breakfast was made to order with good selection of food, Dinner was exceptional, couldn't fault it an any way. Lovely experience of serving canapes in the lounge followed by dinner in the dining room. Room was lovely, separate seating area and nice little touches like bottles of water in the room biscuits and coffee / tea. Hotel was very clean. Staff are amazing, everyone was friendly and service was second to none. Well done to all.

United KingdomMy only small issue was the ambiance in the dining area. With no background music and tables relatively close together it made it difficult to converse without feeling the whole room could hear everything being said. I know it’s probably subjective but I did find it a little awkward and judging by the stilted conversations around us I suspect I wasn’t the only one. It certainly wouldn’t stop me going back and overall the experience was great.
Was really surprised at how pleasant our stay was. The room was great, traditional with a touch of style and well equipped. Food was excellent and the staff were both friendly and attentive

United KingdomNo complaints
Second visit there and it was just as good as before. Excellent chef and lovely staff. Spacious well equipped rooms all with lovely views over wonderful Highland scenery. Electric charging vat reasonable cost was a bonus for us. Food and service excellent- I’d recommend the dinner B&B package because this is the best eating “out” in town!
