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 KingdomBeds were very creaky and not the comfiest I've slept on. That said, they wouldn't put me off booking again
Lovely hotel and bar. Staff all lovely and friendly. Came up for Hogmanay with hubby and son. Sadly, due to his age, we couldn't stay in the bar which had a great atmosphere. The bar has loads of potential with the back area and lounge,. I love that it is dog friendly. Rooms were nice and clean and cosy.

United KingdomProperty was fine. Even better if second bathroom had a shower also. Currently has a bath only no shower hose so strikes me as an easy enough thing to do. That way it’s not a waiting for the correct bathroom to be free. But this wasn’t a big issue within the limitations of a shared bathroom.
Pub downstairs, breakfast was good.

United KingdomRoom above was really noisy at night with what sounded like construction. Made it difficult to sleep and was a bit unnerving. When we checked out no staff could be found on site. Tried calling the 24 hour helpline but no answer, so just ended up leaving the room keys in the room door.
Helpful location stay on a travel between Edinburgh and Inverness. Easy to find with plenty of parking at the time we arrived. Check in was simple and the rooms had everything expected. TV was provided.

CanadaVery difficult to find a staff member to get checked in. Another guest had to call to find someone. Radiators in the room did not work at all. No heat to dry things or get warm, and it was a cold, rainy night. There was a portable heater in the room which I plugged in and used. It eventually heated up the room a bit, but being conscious of the power it was using, did not want to leave it on all night.
Breakfast was not offered at this hotel. The room was a good size. The bathroom was fine. Nice hot shower.

United KingdomOur room was quite tight for space and we could hear the bar downstairs when we were trying to sleep - but it didn't actually stop us from sleeping.
Great location, dog friendly and served as a nice place to stay the night between hiking days. Great breakfast and the bar with pool table downstairs was a fun way to spend a couple of hours. Everyone - locals and staff a like were very friendly and welcoming.

United KingdomCannot think of anything negative to mention.
What a refreshing experience! The host could not have been more helpful. Recommendations for local restaurants and pizza takeouts, and even set us up with his personal laptop so that we could watch a rugby game (the bar TVs were set to Football and we werent going to try compete with the football). Good value drinks at the bar. Room was comfortable (family room) and well appointed. Definitely an option when up in the Aviemore/ Newtonmore area.

United KingdomThe hotel is obviously a little old + in need of refurbishment. Whilst the room was clean and comfortable, the walls were in need of a lick of paint and the bathroom quite tired + in need of complete replacement.
The location suited us perfectly and there was ample on street parking outside / nearby. It was a clean room with comfy bed and an easy check in + check out process. The staff were very friendly.
