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 KingdomI loved it.
This was one of the nicest country inns we have stayed in. Big open fire. Beer made on the premises. Dinner menu had new and seasonal choices which were delicious. Homemade bread, 3 types of home-made preserves and own black pudding for breakfast. We picked wild damsons that also featured on the menu. Big enclosed garden for kids. Quirky beer garden with champagne bottle sculpture. Monthly farmers market on the premises, beer festival once a year.

United KingdomOur bed was very squeaky, any slight move, which was annoying & disturbed our sleep sadly, the shower was cold for me but my partner managed to get his warm with a little turning of the no s so maybe they could add instruction.
The location, staff & food were excellent. They have a lovely bar, dining room & beer garden & our view from our room was stunning!

United KingdomMy bed had a big dip on one side and I think investing in some more modern Tempur style mattresses at some point would be a good idea. It wasn't an uncomfy bed as such but I think a new mattress would satisfy all guests.
The food is legendary here. Really really ace. The location is really nice and the pub always friendly and with great service. Annie the owner is always nice and Abi was brilliant both behind the bar and serving. There was a new lad serving too who was really good too. Rooms are totally ok and have character with pretty much all you need in them....don't expect a modern boutique style or it being really posh rooms though. I accidentally left two expensive Mont Blanc pens there and they were honest enough to message me.

United KingdomStairs are a little steep and carpet worn . Great menu at good price but staff shortages ( as there are everywhere in hospitality) meant service was a little disorganised and sometimes a long wait .
Quirky ,full of history and tradition.Whilst the building is old the bedrooms and bathrooms were spotlessly clean ….plenty of tea/coffee etc and bottled Malvern water .Outside areas spotless with plenty of seating and garden areas -and fantastic floral decorations..hanging baskets and window ledges .Owner more than accommodating as we were a bridal party had make up and hair people arriving very early the next day .Nothing was too much trouble .
