How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The hotel doesn't have its own parking, one has to find a space in one of the streets close by (not difficult when we were there.)
This auberge is right in the middle of the old medieval part of Souillac, it is an old building, full of character. The accommodation is basic but perfectly adequate. The manageress is down-to-earth and efficient but friendly and good for a conversation. The bar has local clientele, the immediate area is full of life, but peaceful at night.

Loved it all but would have accessibility issues for some guests.
in the centre of the little town, really old character building in a picture postcard traditional square. the concierge was very helpful and accommodating (arranged taxis, store bags etc) Loved the bustle of the café which was packed with locals, always a good sign

A beautiful old characterful building in a beautiful location right in the center of the lovely town of Souillac. It could be updated and modernised but that might lose some of the charme. The town is a gem and after booking in at the hotel we enjoyed a walk around it and a meal. The bed was very comfortable. The location, in a small square with narrow streets, is very atmospheric. We would certainly stay again.

The ground floor was a dining room and a small bar. The small bar room was extremely cluttered with anything you'd care to name, Little incentive to drink in there. The small patio outside the front (subject to weather) was pleasant though. A very dated property in much need of some TLC. Parking was awkward we had to park 100m away near a park. Despite my good Fremch language we did not find the patrons particularly conversational or interested in us.
A one night stopover for us. Location was good on a small quiet back street square. We were reminded a little of the cafe Renee from "Allo Allo"! The property has probably not changed any since 1940 which for us gave it a sort of charm.

- • Solo traveller
- • Double Room with Private Bathroom

Parking nearby was a nightmare so don’t bother. If you find a place just park and walk - it won’t be far. No restaurant in the hotel but plenty of choice in the town.
Great location, clean and exactly what you should expect from a small French family hotel ( with all the idiosyncrasies which come as standard). Don’t expect air conditioning at this price, but the fan worked well and did the job on a hot night

Time and a return to normal. Anything that frees up travel and makes it easier for businesses to prosper!!!
We spent 18 years on holidays at a house we owned nearby. Many Sunday meals after church were a great treat at their retaurant. Unfortenately COVID has caused it to be closed for now!!

not the rooms we booked, no coffee/tea maker as described. we couldn’t get a drink, not even a bottle of water. it was bank holiday so the restaurant was shut..which I would have liked to been aware of before booking. plug socket hanging off the wall. did not feel very welcome. nothing was explained to us. would not stay again. we felt like we were not welcome on that day. presumably down to the bank holiday.
lovely location.. outside of the building was lovely. definitely want to go back to Souillac.

Old and strange decoration, a little bit creepy from my point of view. The fruit in the breakfast was not appetizing. If you are looking for a modern cozy hotel this is not your place. If you are looking for something to sleep and breakfast this is enough!
Kind owners. Nice breakfast for 7 euros (bread, croissants, butter, coffee, milk, sweets, yogurt, juice, nuts). The room and toilet were clean and the bed was comfortable enough.
