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 can only mention one thing as everything else perfect. They need to upgrade their toilet roll! We actually bought our own as a result!
The staff were extremely welcoming and we felt at home straight away. We were given an upgrade due to us mentioning our anniversary and were delighted with the balcony where we could enjoy stunning views. All the rooms are very modern and have every facility you can think of. Very clean and spacious; shower to die for. Location excellent. Peaceful, beautiful surroundings. Pub old, but quaint and just gorgeous to have breakfast and dinner in. Food excellent and as a Coeliac they catered so well for gluten free with everything clearly marked on their menu. The owner was so friendly and did everything he could to make our stay perfect. We had more family join us the second day and they prepared the room super early so they could have a morning check in. What more is there to say? We couldn't have asked for a better stay and will definitely be returning.

United KingdomLights from cars leaving the car park would swing through the room during the night - a curtain in front of the window in the door would help block. Food was fine but nothing special.
Clean, smart modern rooms (in separate lodges around the main pub). Facilities excellent. Staff very welcoming. Large, comfortable bed. Light and airy. Plenty of parking.

This is a hidden gem. Room 4 was comfortable and clean and well thought out for the space available. The pub is authentic and independent. 1st impression on entering the pub was that we knew we were going to enjoy the stay. The food and service for dinner and breakfast was excellent. Choice of local beers. Would definitely stay again.

United StatesOur stay with Hugh and his team was a life memory. We've been home for three weeks and still dreaming about it. It was magic. The room, the pub, the setting, the people. Like a dream. Feel like we won the jackpot. Figuring out how to get back asap.

The Withies Inn is the quintessential English countryside inn and pub experience. The pub is warm and inviting with delicious food and drink, fireside seating, local flavor and an authentic pub ambience. The rooms are beautifully appointed with lush bedding and towels. The proprietor, Hugh, and his team are friendly and professional. I highly recommend The Withies Inn for your next visit to Surrey.
