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 KingdomThere was nothing to dislike. I did not require breakfast so it didn't matter that there was none served.
My room had a beautiful view opposite a church with a lovely little pond. My room was warm and cozy and am glad I didn't book into a commercial hotel. Debs the owner was very friendly and helpful and the cats were no bother at all. They kept themselves to themselves and were not the slightest intrusive. There are also 2 pubs that serve food within walking distance so you can leave the car behind and be entertained.

United KingdomThe building is old and that gives it charm. If Someone is a fan of modernity and all kinds of comfort, let him look for another object and not spoil the opinion. The only downside is that we were there far too short.
My Queen & I enjoyed our stay at the Fitzwarine House. The owner - a lovely woman. The view from the window as we dreamed of. An extremely charming place for the weekend.

United KingdomA word of warning about the stairs-they are very steep and narrow.
The B&B is quite an experience. It's so unlike almost any other you're likely to find. The house is extremely old, and as well as a B&B, it's very much a home complete with 3 cats. Our room-3 was spacious and very clean and comfortable. The bathroom had a bath and a shower and again, was very clean. The beds were extremely comfortable. Our room was at the back. The house itself is roadside. There is parking right next to the house. We were offered fresh milk to take to the room. Breakfast saw a choice of cereals and cooked food. Whittington Castle is opposite, and it's worth popping over to the café, and for a walk around the ruin. Grass areas allow for a picnic too. If you want to experience somewhere/something different, this is definitely a must. We would return if in the area.
