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 KingdomPerfect location! Right at the heart of Kirkcudbright and an easy walk to the river and to the rest of the town. The room was very spacious for a single. It was decorated to a high quality and immaculately clean. Breakfast, from the Full Scottish to the porridge was very generous and delicious. All of the staff I met were friendly and welcoming. The skies in that part of the world are amazing. My room was at the front and I had stunning evening sky views towards the sunset.

United KingdomBreakfast choice was a bit limited, but then it is low season. Still tasted fab. Would have been nice to have the bed made every day (and the shortbread topped up! ) but that's being picky. Shower door was a bit sticky to open
Great location, in a lovely central street. Room spacious, heating worked well, so cold weather not an issue. The big light in our room stopped working, but they offered us another room. Breakfast was excellent, bar and restaurant also really good. Staff were friendly. Basically, this is a pub with rooms, but it's very comfortable. Other reviews have complained about noise from the bar when they have live music, but we just shut the fire door and it was fine.

United KingdomWe mainly chose the hotel for the bar and restaurant facility. We had travelled 300 miles to be told due to an emergency drain problem, these facilities were not available (although problem appeared to be sorted by the time we arrived). No alternative arrangements within the hotel were offered, only a suggestion to use another hotel further down the road, which, having checked out, did not suit our requirements. We then spent the next hour and a half wandering around the town trying to find somewhere to sit down and eat, which proved a non-starter as all were closed. The only options available were takeaway. All very disappointing.
Location. Good breakfast. Well appointed and comfortable room.

United KingdomOur room was on the top floor and because of the unusually warm weather for the time of year was warm which made sleeping uncomfortable. This is in no way a criticism of the hotel, it was as said unusual weather for September.
Location was central. Staff were very friendly. Facilities were good. Food was very good. The bar was well stocked and had a cosy feel about it.

United KingdomThe bed was very high to get into and very soft,I didn't sleep well as I need a firm mattress.you could also feel the springs so quite uncomfortable. The shower had no pressure and I had to open the door in order to get water on my back,which was a bit awkward. The chair is very low,so when you sit down,you are so low the table is higher than you so it's hard to do anything. I just did my hair as there is no other mirror to dry your hair at as the wardrobe mirror doesn't open enough to see in it properly. It was very noisy with the fans/ extractor on the roof? Started about 7am.
The staff were excellent Breakfast was nice
