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.).

Amazing staff, location and food. Honestly the best meal so far in Britain. A lovely homely atmosphere downstairs, sharing sofas and pints with ramblers and nice clean, well appointed meals upstairs.

United KingdomEverything was excellent, the ensuite could just do with re grouting to be a bit cleaner and the mirror light wouldn't stay on. The room and stay apart from that was perfect.
Excellent stay, food, service and location was perfect. The staff couldn't do enough for us, they are a credit to the Travellers rest.

United KingdomThe cooked breakfast was absolutely lovely. A small improvement could be to have more choice at breakfast. Ie. Pastries, natural yoghurt, fresh fruit.
Beautiful rooms. Cosy traditional feel to the whole place. Lovely Lakeland style fabrics. I believe it's going to be " updated". Please don't spoil it. The place is charming just the way it is.

United KingdomOnly thing I could possibly fault would be the noisy traffic outside but that is completely out of the Inn's hands and is worth it for the prime location! We both came prepared for this with sleep headphones and a fan to mask the noise, worked great for us!
When we booked this Inn, we were particularly excited about the location and we really weren't disappointed when we pulled up in the parking lot! The view from opposite the Inn is absolutely stunning! Both the interior and the exterior of the Inn were gorgeous as well, it had an old-timey feel without feeling outdated, and the Inn never felt too busy so it was lovely and peaceful. The staff that work at the Inn are really lovely and helpful and definitely added to the experience. We stayed in room number 5 which we loved, we were surprised at how modern and clean the bathroom was and the rest of the room was beautifully decorated. On our last night at the Inn we ate dinner there, I had the lamb and my boyfriend had the rabbit and both were so delicious. We also had breakfast the next morning which was equally as yummy, and a service I really loved at the Inn was the option to order a packed lunch to take with you on your excursions. There are plenty of picturesque routes to walk right outside of the Inn, and lots of cute villages nearby too. This Inn completely exceeded my expectations and I would love to stay here again in the future!
