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 KingdomThought it was a shame, as residents, we couldn't drink in the bar after 11.00pm. We were offered to take a drink to our rooms but declined.
Room was very clean and comfortable and staff very friendly. Breakfast and service was fabulous.

United KingdomExcellent location, just by the river and in the town centre. Good atmosphere, friendly staff who gave me some advices on where to go and how to get there. Room was large, more than enough for one (or two). Comfortable bed, bathroom with bathtub. View to the rooftops and just over the patio which became a little noisy at night but the staff had emailed me telling me about it, so it was no surprise. Just take earplugs with you and it will be fine. Had dinner on the pub, with view to Fowey River. Service was quick, food tasty. Didn’t have drinks, though. Quite a lovely place.

GreeceNot a fault of the property, just noting that the great location comes with some tradeoffs which were perfectly acceptable to us: - No parking nearby. However, there is a frequent bus service from the main parking to the harbour. - There may be some occasional noise from people staying late at the pub next door
Picture perfect view directly on the river! Beautiful room. Lovely atmosphere. Spotlessly clean. Very convenient location. Enjoyed dinner at Galleon Inn pub next door. Pretty memorable stay!

United KingdomMy husband is allergic to seeded bread. So a better quality white bread would have been nicer. The plug in our wash basin was missing its' rubber seal therefore water wouldn't stay in sink. Tap had to be left running while shaving which is waste of water.
Friendly, helpful staff. Comfortable bed. Very clean. Excellent location.

United KingdomOnly having to walk from the car park and back, that was the only downside! However, it wouldn't deter me from returning.
Location, although in the centre of Fowey it was a trek from parking in any direction, but once at the hotel, was worth the walk. Would definitely recommend this place.

The location of the hotel was central and overlooking the estuary. Breakfast was amazing with a great selection of hot and cold foods. Staff worked extremely hard and engaged with all the hotel guests. Bonus on a Friday as they had a 90’s live band but was finished by11.30pm.
