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.).

United KingdomThe map for the rooms and the boards displaying where you were , were very confusing! They need to simplify this and ask a guest to take them around the building and then they will realise how confusing it is. The pool room could have a bit of attention . Beds very firm.
Great venue, amazing grounds, staff were very attentive, maids were also great at cleaning the rooms. Great swimming pool. Food was really nice from breakfast to snacks.

Lovely setting and not too far from Edinburgh itself. Great leisure facilities but the weather hindered using all of the facilities outside. Having a choice of restaurants was great too.

United Kingdom- Large hotel but long wait for lifts. Most of the time it was due to housekeeping staff and trolleys using the same lift to go between floors. Often the lift door would open, but we couldn't get in as the housekeepers trolley takes up the space. We were greeted with the same issue, on its way back to us. We eventually decided to take the stairs - Walls are very thin. We was awoken at 2am by a drunk adults next door to us, shouting and singing. We had booked a family room with our 2 kids so was a bit annoyed that our kids were woken up by a room occupied by drunk adults. Not the hotel's fault but sound proofing could be better and not allocating family rooms with children next door to a group of adults 3 - Scottish breakfast, no black pudding, square sausage etc?!

United KingdomThe quality of food and service in the Brasserie did not meet my expectations. Food was ok... a little overcooked and bland. We came to the Brasserie towards the end of service and the staff were clearly in 'clear up' mode.
Location was great, room very comfortable, Pool and gym 10/10. Although the staff were mostly very young, they were all very professional and welcoming.

United KingdomTennis Courts are unplayable, they haven't been maintained, surface is broken up, they should not be advertising this on the website!! Lack of options for my wife who has an dairy allergy, they were unable to provide alternatives on the menu, for example swapping our a brioche bun for a normal bread roll, the food at dinner did not meet our expectations
Good size room for standard double and excellent breakfast (buffet style) with helpful staff regarding any allergies etc. Swimming pool with sauna and steam room was clean. Overall staff were helpful

United KingdomI was disappointed with the breakfast setup, we were seated outwith the main restaurant. This is the area people queue to enter, I felt this was not appropriate and no service was provided at the table to let us order extra from kitchen. I understand there are flasks to enable self service for tea and coffee and that is a fantastic idea for taking out, but not for a breakfast I would expect from Dalmahoy. The food was excellent but let down with these aspects.
We love coming to Dalmahoy and we book to come at least few months or so for the past few years. We love the relaxed atmosphere, the walks around the hotel and the swimming pool. Food was fantastic as-well as service within the Brassiere. We went to the cocktail lounge for a lite lunch on arrival and there was limited games for my 9 year old girls , this is such a lovely place to sit especially with the weather on Saturday. We would have spent more time if there had been older age games. All staff we encountered were helpful and happy which was lovely.
