Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomJust unfortunate we couldn’t leave our bags somewhere at the end of the stay!
The view out of the lounge area was absolutely fabulous - probably the best view I’ve ever had whilst staying somewhere. So quiet and serene and really good, well equipped kitchen. Good contact from the host about where to find keys and the property.

United KingdomOne of the double rooms only had one bedside light. Instruction manuals for unfamiliar appliances would have been helpful. Most are to be found on Google but we suspect damage had occurred when previous guests used them incorrectly. Two side plates are hardly adequate in a property equipped for four - no doubt earlier breakages were waiting replacement.
The property was centrally located with easy access to local shops and the seafront. Its first floor position part way up the hill meant exceptional views over the bay. It was clean and furnished to a very high standard. The host responded promptly to any problems and close family on hand meant these were quickly resolved. The kitchen was well equipped, with microwave plate warmers and cover, a rarity.

United KingdomMinor points - we needed more side plates and a large glass bowl!
The views from the property are stunning. The living/dining/kitchen is spacious with comfortable seating and the view was ever changing. We loved watching the ferries arrive and depart and the yachts move past. Sunrise was spectacular. The bedrooms are compact. The bathroom is very modern and functional. It was an easy drive to everywhere on the beautiful island from here. A lovely place to stay which I thoroughly recommend.

United KingdomEverything very good, no complaints.
What a lovely property, so bright with amazing views. Everything was in good taste and everything very clean and very comfortable. Kitchen was good, equipment and layout, very comfortable living space and bedrooms, good space for clothing. Heating (always important for those occasional damp days!) was easy to use. Given the keys and a very helpful rundown by the hosts Grandfather, who was great - lovely to have met him! All in all a great stay and would highly recommend!

United KingdomThe hill lol! Took a few days to get used to, if your coming without transport like we did beware of the hill to the apartment might not suit everyone. Couldn't get wifi to connect to our phones or tablet, but wasn't really an issue Could do with access to a garden, missed sitting out in a garden, but found a nice area to sit just across from apartment
We enjoyed our stay, lovely apartment, beautiful view from the living room that we enjoyed watching boats come and go . Nice little decorations around apartment making it feel very homely. Comfortable beds and a really nice bathroom, it was clean and warm and made our stay in Rothesay enjoyable, And our dog enjoyed it too!
