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 KingdomNoise outside in street at night but this isn’t something the Cross Keys can control. Hotel itself was excellent.

United KingdomAs a small town centre hotel this had everything we needed for a weekend away. We have stayed in other facilities in the centre of Sherborne, but this is the best to date.
The hotel was located right in the centre of Sherborne, ideal for shops and restaurants. We only had breakfast in the hotel but that was of good quality and plentiful. Coffees/teas were replenished as required at no extra cost. The dining room was clean and comfortable with friendly staff. The owner (Mo) was great and happy to spend time recommending places to go and things to see in the vicinity.

United KingdomEverything was good for us.
Hannah and Mo made us feel welcome immediately we stepped in the door even though they were very busy with service. Our room was tastefully furnished with small thoughtful gestures and immaculately clean. The meals we took at Cross Keys were delightful and we knew that if there were any problems in any way hat they would have been addressed immediately. Parking wasn't an issue as Culverhayes Car Park is only a few minutes walk from The Cross Keys. We will definitely return.

United KingdomWhen you stay here, there is only a limited number of rooms but if you want a hotel with everything, you don’t stay here(but we liked it!). Parking is 5 minutes walk from the hotel but it is safe and doesn’t cost anything for the night.
Pub /restaurant with a few guest rooms, very friendly staff, good facilities in an excellent location. Breakfast is generous and so is the restaurant. Overall, a nice atmosphere and a pleasant experience which will tempt us back to Sherborne

United KingdomWe loved it. Only negative is that there was a banging noise out the front of the room overnight. It may have been the high winds. There are also bells that ring every hour throughout the night.
Fantastic clean room with good amenities and excellent location. The breakfast was excellent and the venison pie in the restaurant the night before for dinner was outstanding. We will be back.
