Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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 Kingdom73 and 78 years old put in the smallest room at the very top of the house. Only 1 chair between us. Television was tiny so couldn't see or hear very well, subtitle too small as so far away from bed. No use asking to change room as fully booked. Website gave the impression of a communal lounge which must have been changed to accommodation.
Bed and linen were exceptional

ItalyThe room was a bit old-fashioned, but not bad.
The location was cool and quiet. It was close to the train station, to the bus stop and the centre of the village (where there are some cool shops and good restaurants). The kitchen was spacious and well-equipped.

United KingdomFew small things I’d consider changing: 1. Buy a new kettle, the one in there doesn’t detach from the wire so you have to unplug and carry the whole thing to the bathroom, and then you can’t really fit the kettle under the tap to fill it up because of the low sitting shelf, bit awkward. I’d maybe think of putting a fresh glass bottle of water in the rooms to fill up the kettles. 2. Some blackout curtains or blinds would make for an even better nights sleep. 3. Pop a cheap little hairdryer in the rooms.
For someone like me who needs a place to stay that is nearby I couldn’t ask for better really, this place was a stone’s throw away from my workplace. I also like that it’s self-catering with on-site facilities (kitchen, laundry room - I didn’t use these but would if I was staying for longer). Decent shower, good space in the room and overall a good sleep. I also had to last-minute extend my stay due to train strikes and the owner was very responsive and accommodating.

United KingdomThere's no lift, so anyone with mobility issues should request a ground floor room as the steps are quite steep. The shower wasn't very powerful
The location is great, particularly for those relying on public transport, it was quite affordable for the area. Shops and restaurants are within 2 minutes walk. The beds were comfortable and all the expected facilities were there. No issues with noise either, despite it being a small building.

United KingdomI couldn’t complain about anything it was really affordable and great value for money. The towels provided were large bath sheets which often you don’t get in hotels! If I had to have a moan about anything it was the shower was on the small side and no shampoo provided but there is a local Sainsbury’s so isn’t a problem really!
It was right in the heart of Windermere so it was easy to get to the lake and local shops. It came with a double bed plus a single so you’ve an option of how you choose to sleep. The room was really Clean and the bed comfortable and warm which is perfect for this time of year! And the hotel is quiet with no building or construction in the area to get a perfect night sleep!

United KingdomWe had been allocated "room 5" on the top floor, which provided challenges due to my physical restrictions, but my wife and I managed. It is worth mentioning to anyone else perhaps in a similar position, but as I say, we managed "with consideration. Please note that this statement in no way applies any negative impact to "what we did like above!" Nor did it have any negative effect on our visit to Windermere that we would not rebook/revisit. The only impact was during the arrival, unpacking/packing of the car phase, etc!
Excellent value accommodation, in Windermere Town centre. The "shared kitchen facilities" well equipped and suited our needs/requirements. Our room was well equipped and clearly suited our needs for our entire visit.
