How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

My wife commented that the cleaning could have been done more assiduously. She surmised it was done by youngsters who cleaned the obvious bits but not everything (like, for example, the cord on the hotel's hairdryer and the Mira shower unit) but this did not detract from our enjoyment of the place.
The Grange is perfectly situated between Shanklin High Street and Old Shanklin - close to several restaurants and other eateries. The Grange is more like a hotel than a B&B with lovely gardens, covered swing seats and a large patio with tables and chairs to enjoy the drinks from the honesty bar. Complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits are available all day. The staff could not have been friendlier or more welcoming - especially the lovely Wendy for whom nothing was too much trouble. Breakfasts were great; ordering what we wanted from the extensive menu and which set us up for the day ahead,

Not so much a dislike, the Grange we thought needed a tidy up , repaint etc, it didn't detract from the overall experience.
Friendly staff, great location - we used the Grange as a base for our first vacation to the Isle of Wight. Very happy with the choice.

That we couldn't stay longer!!
The Grange is a great place to stay. It's a beautiful old building that is really well kept with lovely period features. The staff, particularly Wendy, are so friendly, and no request is too much trouble. The breakfast was wonderful with a large choice of options. Our room was really comfortable and large with a sea view and looking out over the gorgeous terraced gardens.

It was a very calm & relaxing place to stay. The breakfasts were excellent and the staff were very attentiveI, warm & friendly. We made use of the tea and coffee that was available all day, this was a nice touch. Situated in a very convenient place, and for exploring the whole island. A special thank you to Wendy who is absolutely lovely.

Some painting in the room would brighten it up. The car parking in the summer might be an issue as there are limited spaces.
The location was very good. The room was spacious for a twin room. The breakfasts were freshly cooked. The staff were very friendly. The bar on trust was a novel idea. The complimentary tea, coffee, biscuits etc during the day was an added bonus.
