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 KingdomEvening meal service was open for pretty limited times, so just make sure to confirm! I had a toastie and it was yummy! The floors throughout were a bit creaky, but the whole place had a load of charm. The water pressure was great, but it was hot and I had clean towels everyday.
The staff were great and breakfast was very filling. The view of the church yard was really nice to wake up to each morning. Wifi was stable!!!! There is onsite parking, but beware if you have a large vehicle the entrance way is tight! There's a cafe next door that's nice and quaint, a fish shop across the street and a Chinese just down the road. The shower is hot and there was plenty of space in the bathroom and bedroom. The light from the big windows was so nice!

United KingdomParking for van on street, access to hotel car park limited. Having said that street parking fine no restrictions between 6pm to 8am. Busy one way street.
Staff good, rooms good and clean. Evening menu basic no frills. As contractor do not need much more.

United KingdomMy only very slight criticism is that the shower could do with a mat inside as it was very slippy.
The Griffin is authentically quaint and traditionally creaky, which I love. Luckily for us, they do an early breakfast on a Sunday which meant we were able to eat before having to rush back to London. The breakfast was excellent. The towels in the room were large and fluffy. I would certainly stay again when visiting family in the area.

United KingdomThe restaurant menus weren’t available online and were only on chalk boards. No-one else was dining so we went elsewhere.

United KingdomNothing we didn't like but this is an old building and as such, there are the unavoidable creaky floors and uneven stairs. The access to the car park is very narrow but again, this is due to the age of the building and we managed it in a 4x4
Great location and beautiful old building full of character. Wonderful staff, great food, everything we needed

United KingdomFirst impressions were not great to be honest, there was a fusty / damp smell when you walked in the entrance and it looked very dated, not much atmosphere in the bar not a good wine selection but my husband said the beer was good. Bathroom was really small and the bathroom window kept opening on its own. The stairs were a bit of a challenge with a heavy suitcase. A small moan was about letting them know what time you will be down for breakfast in the morning, it finished at 9 so we had to make sure we were down by 8.45am which is a little early when you on holiday.
Over looking a beautiful church yard and lovely gardens, inside we were met by a lady who gave us our room key and told us where they room was, up some very creaky stairs and down a wonky corridor we found it. The room had a four poster bed in and a very tiny bathroom with a very small shower cubicle in. The room was very clean with kettle, biscuits tea coffee etc available. we came downstairs in the evening to have a drink in the bar, there were a few locals but we were quite disappointed as there wasn't much atmosphere, i left my husband to have a few more drinks and went to bed. The breakfast was outstanding - had a little wait for the coffee to come out but again this was good filter coffee not cheap instant. Everything on the breakfast menu was exceptional, local sausages and bacon from the butchers over the road - just great! On hearing the history of the Griffin Hotel you can forgive the quirks as this actually made it a great place to stay - we hope to be back in the future.
