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 KingdomEverything way great except for the mobile phone reception which was negligible and the television reception. The main channels seemed OK but e.g. ITV3 kept breaking up and tended to spoil our viewing.
Excellent breakfast choice and all good. We dined at the hotel a couple of times and were very happy with the meals.

United KingdomOnly decaf coffee option was instant. These days it should be easy for a hotel to buy a cafetiere and pack of decaf coffee.
Perfect situation for walkers. Lovely walks from door of hotel and beautiful views. Hotel had character - I had a very spacious room with lovely local toiletries. All staff were friendly. Evening meal - as well as usual pub food, there were some tasty options with vegetables. I enjoyed my beef stew that was packed with a variety of vegetables. My friend was pleased her vegetable lasagne was also full of a variety of vegetables and not just the usual tomato and red peppers. It was possible to have a twin/double room for single occupancy at a reasonable price. Already, we are planning to meet up at The Royal next year.

Breakfast was great! Room was a little warm as the radiator thermostat didn't seem to work, but opening the window fixed it. Great welcome and would use again if I needed to be in the area.

Service and food very good, pleasant quiet countryside location with garden area. Adequate parking, staff helpful. Unfortunately I had to curtail my stay owing to an injury (sustained elsewhere) but received a credit with no hassle.

United KingdomMenu mentions that half serving of desserts are available but this does not include the pavlova. It may be useful to reword the menu.
We have stayed here before and it was as good as previously. Hotel is in the middle of nowhere and great walks available near by.
