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.).

Outstanding. Truly lovely place, and the team running it are exceptional. I'm not someone who takes pictures of their food, but ended up photographing both dinner and breakfast- they looked like works of art! Tasted as good as they looked. Worth every penny.

United KingdomIt was all good. The only hard thing for me and my son was being so far away from my mums guest bedroom.
Tasteful sympathetic decor for a building from the 1600s with lovely touches. We loved the extended dining room; with so much light and space. We loved our loft room and also the outside seating spaces in the walled garden

United KingdomOne of the best stays in the UK, by far! The special cottage, the beautiful surroundings, delicious food and amazingly comfy beds: every detail sets your time there for total relax in high quality. I had some specific health requests and the staff was amazingly accommodating; a delicious wine as welcome treat; free water and high quality amenities in the room; and a big plus was that our dog could join us with absolutely no fuss. Location is perfect for a Cotswolds and Oxfordshire travel. I can’t wait to come back.

South KoreaThe stairs to the second floor are narrow. However, I am very grateful that they were willing to change to a room on the first floor considering my situation with two suitcases.
A stylish and classic atmosphere in a unique accommodation remodeled from a traditional house. The warm and hearty breakfast cooked by me was excellent, and I will definitely stay again when I visit the UK again.It was a happy experience to feel the traditional British atmosphere in the quiet morning neighborhood atmosphere and the atmosphere of the accommodation.

United KingdomMaybe one more vegetarian option on the main menu would be good. There was a specials menu so I was able to choose something really lovely from that but the other main menu option was a falafel burger which wasn't as exciting sounding as the rest of the non-vegetarian mains.
We booked a stay at The Royal Oak as a last minute getaway and we were so impressed with the attic room! It was lovely to stay in such a quirky, old place. It has been renovated really well and we loved all the old original features of the room. The extra welcoming touch of a little carafe of port was lovely too! We had a meal in the hotel restaurant in the evening and breakfast in the morning, both of which were delicious. We loved the way the bar was decorated with dried hops. We would love to stay again!

United KingdomI cannot think of one single thing.
The Royal Oak is genuinely one of the nicest pubs I have ever visited. Its located in the pretty village of Ramden in the Cotswolds. It manages to be cosy and contemporary, and full of character. The staff were all friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was delicious, the room was spacious and comfortable and the ensuite bathroom was very luxurious.

ChinaNo lift so it may be a bit challenging for aging people. Better to come with car otherwise you have to book a taxi from the rail station.
Love everything about the stay! The hotel is delicately decorated and gives a nice cosy and romantic vibe. The rooms are spacious and have a vintage feel. Staffs are really friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend to friends and come back in the future!

The Royal Oak is a beautiful Cotswold pub with rooms. It is very characterful with a lovely atmosphere. The room was very cosy and the complimentary port was a nice touch. We really enjoyed the dinner. The lady who booked us in and generally looked after us couldn’t have been more helpful.
