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):
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 StatesThere was no staff per se, check in and check out was very easy. Our room was on the top floor, and there was no lift, which made it very difficult for us as an older couple. Since we were at the top floor, it was very hot at night, one of the beds was under a slanted part of the roof, which made it very claustrophobic. The beds were wonderful and other than the above mentioned minor issues, the room was very nice. If I were to book it again, I would ask for a first floor room and paid the extra amount.
It was back away from the city, and a very country setting

United KingdomThe en-suites could do with a bit of a fix up and upgrade.
The beds are SOOO comfy. Decor inside the bedrooms are ok. The en-suite is a little worn but has a nice spacious shower and is clean with good shower pressure and clean water. It’s local to shops and restaurants. There were no staff to greet you, it’s all self led!

FranceThe bathroom caulk had a significant amount of mould and the floor was peeling up in certain places.
The room was comfortable, the location is very quiet (maybe a little hard to find but they do warn you and do their best with directions) yet a quick drive from the town.

FranceAs it’s an old house, maintenance may be challenging and there may be some points to improve eg some humidity spots in the bathroom. But the comfort of the bedroom made these points as insignificant details, and we spent 2 peaceful nights in this house. To be noted : it’s about 10mn drive from Inverness city center but it’s very quiet and green. It’s also close to a large Tesco superstore.
What a charming old Scottish house ! Our room (Nbr 2) was spacious, nice, and clean, with a wide bow window overlooking the front garden and another door opening to a terrace with 2 armchairs to rest in front of the back lawn. The bed was very comfortable, and the large table was big enough for a group of four. We had enough tea, coffee and water supplies for our stay. This property is self check in, and it’s easily done thanks to a code we received before the check in time (16:00). We had the pleasure to meet the owner Andrew who kindly explained us the house facilities.

PakistanThe smooth and fast self check in due to the provided code and precise instructions by the hotel management. Room was well cleaned and amenities were excellent and in abundance. Location is ideal while visiting Inverness and surroundings as it is quite a small drive to the city centre as well as gives you a feeling of staying at country side. The guidance provided to access the hotel location proves that management cares about the guests after the booking and during the stay too. As I have a very short stay so I was unable to enjoy the well maintained green areas in front and back of the property but it will be a big plus point for the guests with children and those who want to spend more relaxing time at the property.

SwitzerlandThere was no breakfast (clearly written by the property, so not a surprise) and we underestimated how "far" everything was (just a few minutes by car, nothing dramatic, just be mindful of that)
THe property is located in a very quiet area, closeby a few walks, it's nice and calm and neighbors are all friendly. It's a pleasure to just chill in the beautiful garden

United KingdomThe Building has so much history behind it, it feels like it has had the bare mimimum of investment in its upkeep in recent times. The garden is a beautiful size and could make for a lovely space for families to enjoy. The garden is completely unkempt, the outside decking areas to the ground floor have not been maintained and are looking incrediby drabby. It feels like its been used as a money making exercise offering the bare essentials for short term stopovers, whereas it has so much potential to become something so much better.
Loved the location. just a 5 minute drive from local facilities including Supermarkets, Restaurants and Local Tourist sites. Our room was on the ground floor, lovely and spacious and perfect for our Dog, he loved being able to pop in and ut of the garden.

United KingdomIt was a bit unclear what the code was to open the front door but once we contacted the office the staff were helpful and it was sorted. The general ambience of the grounds and the entrance hall seemed rather worse for wear. After the problem with the key code, it was a bit off putting.
The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The location was in a green leafy part on the outskirts of town which suited us v well.
