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! From the moment we arrived, staff were warm, welcoming and friendly. We were offered a complimentary room upgrade which was a wonderful and unexpected surprise! Our room was absolutely stunning and decorated beautifully. It was spotless, immaculately clean and had everything you need - hairdryer, towels, and a surplus of toiletries! I’d paid extra in advance for champagne in the room as it was my partners birthday; it was lovely to find this chilling in a bucket of ice with 2 glasses on our arrival! The bed was incredibly comfortable, we had a wonderful nights sleep! My partner and I kept noting how beautifully furnished and decorated our room was! It was just immaculate. We had breakfast in the morning and the service and food were both faultless!

United KingdomNothing that comes to my mind.
The pub with rooms was more than adequate for my wife and I. The evening meal on the Friday was ‘spot on’. Beer was good. Decided not to eat the second night as it was quite quiet, not a bad thing, we just wanted somewhere with a bit of atmosphere. Other than that very pleased with our stay.

United KingdomThe room was beautifully presented, but the space was tight, it would have benefited from an extra mirror to do hair & make up by . And a bench to put a suitcase on. We found the bed mattress too soft & squishy, but realise that is a personal preference.
We didn’t have breakfast as we went for a cooked breakfast in the town. The location was easy to find, parking good. And just a short drive to the lovely town of Crickhowell. We did a lovely walk by the river and the weather was great in October. The staff were wonderful, and the food was extremely good.The restaurant was very busy on Saturday evening but the staff managed the situation well.

United KingdomThe bed was a little uncomfortable in terms of a pretty severe slope on the one side. The rooms are also very very warm, the inclusion of a large fan was well received but even on a low setting is still a bit noisy during the night.
The property has recently been renovated and is very stylish. The location is fantastic and the bar and restaurant looked superb, we didn’t eat there but will definitely go back to do so.

United KingdomDon't be put off by the colourful restaurant and bar in the photos on line, it's lovely once you get in there! We had trouble getting the TV to work. The bathroom had a funny smell, but maybe because the room hadn't been used much, it had gone by the time we went to bed.
Beautifully decorated bedroom and very comfy bed. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Excellent food - when we arrived we hadn't realised it was a special "steak" night and I wasn't too sure but went ahead and ordered, neither my husband or myself had never had such well cooked delicious steaks, hats off to the chef!

United KingdomI got married on Friday 8th September at Sant Ffraed House. I chose to get ready at your beautiful B&B the night before, I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and your very friendly, helpful and welcoming team who went above and beyond for myself and two bridesmaids stay. We had a lovely meal the night before and the beds were so comfortable and the rooms were gorgeous! We had a slight mishap in the morning of everyone in the village losing power as I was getting ready, but your staff went above and beyond to try and get this sorted, phoning up the national grid about getting power back on asap because I needed to get ready. We were luckily able to move over to Sant Ffraed House earlier than expected so was no stress and simply just one of those things that just happens, ( if it was to be anyone’s luck that morning it was mine! 😂 ) My husband and I will be planning to come back next year around our anniversary to stay with you as it was a special part of my day and something I will never forget. Thank you so much again Olivia Griffiths (was Kerslake)
