How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewIt was pretty amazing being in a refurbished castle. The staff were excellent, everyone we met was so kind and the rooms were impeccably cleaned every day. The pool was an absolute bonus, especially on the hot days we had! Right in the heart of Sarlat too so easy to walk everywhere.
You get used to the stairs!

Verified reviewThe hotel is a historic and authentic castle located in the heart of Sarlat’s old town.

Verified reviewBeautiful hotel, I cannot fault a single aspect. The lady on reception, I think her name was Valerie, was so lovely, friendly and helpful. The room was gorgeous and well equipped, the bed was so comfortable, and despite being in central Sarlat it was so quiet at night. The air conditioning was a great perk in an old building, and the breakfast was very good. I would recommend this to every couple for a comfortable and romantic stay. We can't wait to come back!
If you have mobility issues the only downside would be a lot of stairs and no lift or nearby parking
Dear Tegan, it has been a pleasure to welcome you two during this very special week for you. All the staff (especially Valérie of course) thanks you for this excellent review. In addition, we would like to provide 2 pieces of information to our travelers: first we really can't have a lift in our old Manoir of the 15e century (because of a majectic original spiral staircase) but some rooms are at the ground floor; and our guests can book a parking slot in our private and safe car park located 5 minutes walking away from the hotel... We will also delighted to welcome you again! Last thank you from all of us for recommending our Petit Manoir

Missing an elevator. Staff was nice to bring our luggage’s above but we left early morning and no one to bring luggage’s downstairs
Dear Benoit, we thank you for your review. Unfortunately, as the Petit Manoir is a building from the 15e century, it's not possible to add an elevator in the beautiful original spiral staircase... We always offer our help to carry luggage when guests arrive, and suggest guests to call us from the room when they are ready to come down and check out, in order to help to carry bags downstairs .

Verified reviewThe hotel is in a truly fabulous location in the centre of this fantastic town. Despite this the bedroom was quiet and peaceful. The swimming pool is a bonus. The staff (especially Eric) were terrific.
Breakfast was poor (i.e hot food served very cold). Perhaps they should just stick to French breakfasts and avoid trying to please us Brits? Didn't like the fact that entry into Sarlat is complicated by bollards that prevent car access at peak periods. The car park for the hotel is fair walk (although Eric accompanied us and helped us with our luggage). The hotel stairs are a nightmare with luggage.
Dear Ben, we thank you (especially Eric of course) for this long review, but particularly for its title! However, we would like to specify to readers that there's always someone to help our guests during breakfast (it's with great pleasure we can of course warm eggs or bacon on demand). Our breakfast is usually as much appreciated by French people as by British people because of its diversity... And sorry if our car park seemed far away to you, as our hotel is located in the heart of the beautiful Sarlat's medieval part, we always try to help our guests with their luggage outsite (and inside) le Petit Manoir.

Verified reviewLe Petit Manoir was a beautiful ancient manor house, renovated tastefully in a French contemporary style while providing all the modern amenities required for a comfortable stay. The staff were welcoming and helpful, adding to the delightful ambiance of the hotel, which felt more like a home. Our room was exquisite with an exposed stone wall running the length of it with a large fireplace in the centre. The view over the old roofs of Sarlat added to the charm and uniqueness of this property. Breakfast had everything we could want and at the highest quality, often homemade. Quality sums up our stay in one of the most delightfully different hotels we have ever stayed in. This is a hotel that is an absolute must and we are looking forward to visiting again.
