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 KingdomMattress could have been comfier. Swimming pool not very warm and shame the jacuzzi was out of action throughout our stay - the leisure facilities were one of the reasons we booked so a bit disappointing.
Great location for visiting family. Lovely house and grounds. Cheery, helpful staff. Good breakfast with tasty bacon and sausages.

United KingdomThis is not really a hotel in my opinion, it is a wedding venue/function venue. Lots of groups of guests, slightly noisier than one would like especially in the evening. The staff although very polite are all very young and do not appear to be trained in hospitality which gives a bit of hap hazard feel to the stay. We ate in the bar on first night which was very expensive and basic, frozen chips, cold bacon etc, not what you expect at that cost. Dogs were allowed but my emails were ignored prior to our stay only to be hit with an extra £30 bill on arrival, but no justification for the cost... The potential for this place is huge but not somewhere I will stay again with loud wedding parties everyday..
Good spacious double room and plenty of space in the ensuite with good hot water.. very warm so much so I had to open the window! The breakfast spread is excellent and probably the best bit of the stay.. There is a small wooded walk which was handy for the dogs to have a comfort break...

United KingdomOnly one thing, is the bar prices for some drinks were very expensive and we fully understand the rise in prices but did slightly grate a bit as we were at a wedding in an annexe not in main house. But nothing else to complain about.
An excellent location with a stunning main house. The layout of accommodation is easy to navigate. The staff were all very helpful and polite at all times. The main house felt great walking through like a Victorian manor house. We particularly liked the cooked English breakfast, and once again the staff made it run smoothly despite the rush of guests all arriving at once so we'll done to them. We would like to go back again and use more of the facilities available to guests. Highly recommended 👍👍

United KingdomAnother lovely night's stay at this beautiful hotel. Myself and husband have stayed here several times over the years but this time I booked it as a surprise for our daughter and I. She loved it. We had such a good time, walked around the grounds, went swimming and enjoyed dinner and breakfast too. A great way to enjoy the start of the Christmas holidays with a relaxing night away.
