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 KingdomIt would have been nice to have had 2 chairs in the bedroom rather than just one. The village is lovely but very small and only consisting of houses.
The breakfast was beautifully laid out with an excellent choice of fresh fruit, cereals, yoghurts and cheese in addition to cooked options. The en-suite was beautiful with plenty of space and a good shower. All staff were incredibly helpful and pleasant; they couldn't do enough for you. A very quiet location and the bed was extremely comfortable. We had a meal from the Sunday menu which was very varied and served in the restaurant.

United KingdomI stayed in the balcony room. Excellent size and comfortable. Large bathroom with bath. Marsha and all the team were very welcoming, friendly, and very helpful. The food was excellent, especially if you like your fish. I had the Lamb, which was lovely. I would highly recommend it. Breakfast was plentiful with a good choice. I personally had the kippers, which was great.

United KingdomHaving attended a local wedding on the Friday, we returned to the Tickled Trout at about 7.30pm and it was busy enough with diners that finding a place to park in the car park (road outside too narrow for parking) was tricky. A slightly larger car park might be advantageous given TT's village situation.
The staff greeted us with sunny smiles after a hard drive....even though they were busy at the time. The food was absolutely superb. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them.

United KingdomRoom was too hot. We could not adjust the radiator. Duvet was synthetic which added to feeling very hot. However the manager was very apologetic and said she would sort the heating problem out the day we were leaving
Room was beautiful, bathroom exceptional. Lovely cotton linen sheets. Breakfast was generous and tasty. Restaurant dinner was really excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.
