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 KingdomCan't think of anything
Great location. Extremely comfy bed. Lovely staff who are friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend the food in the restaurant, very tasty and has a good vegetarian menu and the best home made chips. Good selection of beers and a nice covered outdoor area.

Bar lounge area was lovely, big wood log burner on. Well stocked bar with local beers & spirits. Walking distance to harbour & other restaurants. Owners are lovely.

United KingdomThe only remark would be that breakfast wasn’t included in the room price.
Location excellent with easy free street parking nearby. Room comfortable and clean with nice view from window. A little disappointed that breakfast was not included in the price, but in fact saved time as we would have had to get up earlier! Very helpful and pleasant owners and staff. Also good to be able to have evening meal.

United KingdomOnly slight issue was the bed was too soft and we both had sore backs in the morning.
Nice welcome and staff very friendly. Beer garden was superb especially as it was a hot week. Typical pub food, we both enjoyed. Spacious room and the location is superb. Kirkcudbright is a lovely wee town.

United Arab EmiratesI didn’t realise that they didn’t serve breakfast with the room because we went through Booking.com instead of directly through them. That was a disappointment!
The owner was very helpful and the place was spotless.

United KingdomA little bit more time for breakfast and dinner. When travelling and visiting whilst on holiday it's nice to have little more time for breakfast and likewise in the evening to order / eat dinner. Dumfires & Galloway like much of Scotland is famed for it's sea food, but there was nothing on the breakfast menu for e.g. Kippers, Salmon etc. nor on the evening menu except for Fish and Chips. But these are minor things overall.
The staff and owners were very friendly and helpful, also the hotel has a lovely beer garden and outdoor dining area. Ideally located within a few minutes of the town centre.

United KingdomCould have been difficult to get street parking if the town had its normal visitor numbers. Not suitable for people with mobility issues due to stairs.
Central location with street parking. Immaculately clean. Bar and beer garden - but clientele left by 11pm, so not disturbed by noise. Very friendly owners. Enjoyed our stay.
