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 KingdomWe were disappointed with the misleading location as it is advertised as Tetbury but is 8 miles outside. The external appearance was also disappointing although it is painted a nice colour. There is plenty of scope for improvement outside on the road.
We were very pleased with the quality of our room after a very mixed start. It was all newly refurbished and clean. The bar area was spacious and the quality of the food was very good. The staff all cared about the business - shame about the outside.

United KingdomTwo of us had steak and it was so tough my sister could not cut it up. The table next to us asked for steak knifes as they were having the same trouble. The rest of the party enjoyed the burgers.
The bed and pillows are fantastic. Excellent nights sleep.

United KingdomThere was only one item on the dinner menu for people on a plant-based diet. The UK Committee on Climate Change called for a 35% to 50% reduction in meat consumption by 2050 to achieve our climate change targets. People need help to do this by having interesting non-meat items on menus.
The pub didn't look promising from the outside but our room had been recently refurbished. The dining area was pleasant, too. We appreciated having "real" coffee in our room and a (small!) supply of oat milk. There was somewhere safe for us to keep our bikes.

United KingdomGoing home!
Really warm welcome by staff, which continued throughout our stay. The Chalet we stayed in is warm and inviting, with comfortable bed and seating area, private car parking space and easily accessible to the pub via a pathway. (take a torch for night time) Cental location to many attractions, catered for our needs perfectly, including vegetarian and vegan options for all meals. Delicious homemade pizza's freshly prepared and cooked in a woodfired oven are a real bonus. Local real ale, with most everything is sourced on the menu locally. Would highly recommend.

United KingdomOnly downside in my view was the feather filled duvet which was quite heavy, making us very warm.
The very warm welcome, the log fire, the friendly staff, the fab food and drink were all terrific. Also nice to be out of town a bit too. We would definitely return in the Summer and wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Holford Arms.

United KingdomOnly criticism is that the shower door in our room isn’t logically placed, we felt it too close to the toilet.
It matched up to the online descriptions and reviews. The bar and restaurant were well thought out and it has two log fires. There is a comfy sofa area too which was perfect after our meal. The bedroom and bathroom were a good size and the bathroom finish was high quality.

IndiaMeals were also great but breakfast could have been better, should have more options and portion size should be more. Also, room becomes bit too hot during the night, so good idea to keep the heater level low.
Room was very clean, but I really liked the host of the property and the pub area to hang during the night.
