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 KingdomThe stairs are fairly step & narrow but this is to be expected in an old listed building.
Exceptionally clean throughout, very attentive, warm & helpful staff, large room (11) with a 'wow' en-suite, at the rear so fairly quiet, on site car park, pretty beer garden.

United KingdomThis didn’t bother us at all but I’ll mention this for the sake of future bookings. There is a sister pub-The Mailman’s Arms-next door to The Stag hotel that our room overlooked. They had a live band performing the night we stayed, and the music could clearly be heard in our room. Be aware of this, and check for live performances when booking! The band were excellent and the music serenaded us to sleep.
Staff, in particular Jake, friendly and very efficient. The room was spotlessly clean and the beds were nice and comfortable. Slept like a log. Cooked breakfast was lovely-the mushroom in particular cooked and seasoned to perfection. Hotel is in an excellent position on the main street in Lyndhurst.

United KingdomIt is located on a busy A road which has a lot of traffic, and the rooms are located above a lively pub with music, which might not suit everyone. However it all goes quiet after around 11.30pm!
Convenient location for us. Good amenities in the town. Very friendly, efficient and helpful staff and owners. Spacious tastefully decorated bedroom. Lovely cooked breakfast cooked to order. Lunch and evening meals available. Crisp white linen and large fluffy white towels. Tea, coffee, milk and water replaced every day.

United KingdomThe room was quite hot even though it was cold outside and we had all the windows open. You could also hear the noise from the bar downstairs. Very limited car parking spaces so ended up having to pay for parking at the main car park.
Great location, the food was really nice and the staff were friendly. Nice walks around the area and cute shops on the high street.

United KingdomThe double bed is 2 beds attached to eachother but not lengthways, widthways so the join comes just at your hips when you sleep, which isn't horrific but just made my back sore the next day, not a huge deal at all, but if you're plus size or a tall person it's quite uncomfortable.
Staff were all lovely and super nice, loved all the dogs that were staying there at the time, breakfast was delicious and the birds in the aviary in the garden were adorable. The view from the room was so lovely, you get 2 hair dryers, tea, coffee even green tea, no hot chocolate which I tend to prefer but that's not an issue I just brought some from a shop along the road, 2 fans in the room, lots of towels, the bar of soap is quite drying so bring your hand cream, but overall I would recommend and I will be back. If you want, cosy aesthetic village vibes stay here you'll love it. Perfect window spot for reading in the navy blue room with the beams. ❤️
