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 KingdomCiting of breakfast layout could be better, crowded into a corner and having to find a table and keep going back to a small area to get each aspect of breakfast, not ideal. Not all rooms have view of surrounding hills, I had hoped it would , Not sure about number of dogs, not barking, but have to say not a fan of dogs, did not really take in pets welcome on web site, !,loads on 1st morning, not keen, but seem welcome in Ullswater and surrounding area, need to be aware. Could benefit with small fridge, room warm without heating, need water cooled
Everything I expected, lovely pub decor, excellent views if able to get a preferential view of surrounding area from places in dining hall, well presented in decor,

United KingdomOverpriced, room not as as advertised, suppose to be superior but more of a standard double, felt they used wrong terminology. Only one chair until we asked. Nicely decorated but poor design and finish of bathroom, shower screen hindered by bath handle. Basic mixer tap shower for shower and shower head holder fitted at only about 5 ft. £200 a night but had to order food at the bar no table service. No shot glasses for some of drinks advertised on offer and no ingredients for most of the cocktails. Paid less for rooms at other places and had larger rooms table service and spa facilities. Also limited parking we where lucky to get a space over half of guests had to park in nearby pay and display at £8 a day when paying £200 a room. Also check in was slow with two people ahead lf us still had plumbers in rooms, then another some technical IT clitch, so after trying to book in 40 min early prior asked fo wait so did with drink at bar, then turned into half hr wait from given book in time.
Beautiful location and view of the lake and hills nice fresh decor and good food.

United KingdomUnclear where reception is when first arrive which is a bit confusing. Hotel car park v small - a lottery as to if a space is possible. Had to park in pay and display- would prefer to be able to book parking at the hotel or have parking reimbursed or discounted if having to pay- seems unfair for some guests. Filter coffee is basic for breakfast- prefer coffee machine option/better quality.
Large comfortable rooms, bright and airy. Bathroom Small but functional. Lovely decor in bar and restaurant. Staff friendly.

United KingdomThere seemed to be a few teething problems re what menus applied when, plus there appeared to be a lot of staff mingling about in the bar but not serving behind it when we arrived. (Maybe a staff change over) All the food menus stated served only until 17.00 (including another one we were given when querying it at 16.55, although we were told food was available until 21.00). The actual until 21.00 menu wasn't distributed until about 19.00 so it was unclear what was available before then. Guessing as a newly opened hotel and likely new staff it just needs some time to iron out the kinks.
Clean, nice rooms.

United KingdomI've tried to contact the hotel about some lost property and they have not responded. Tried emailing, messaging on Booking.com and phoned them, but they haven't answered me. Disappointed, because it was otherwise a very good stay and the staff were helpful in person.
The door handles. You know they're making an effort when they're speccing nice door handles. Dog friendly, nice bar, great food, well-earned beverages and a cracking breakfast.
