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.).

Not much hanging space for towels etc in bathroom. A hook on the back of the bathroom door would have been useful. Very Overcooked fried eggs. They did bring me some more out but undercooked!!

Verified reviewComfy clean room, delicious breakfast, friendly staff. On duty night Porter meant late check in was no problem at all. On site parking was great. Perfect 1 night stop over en route to Cornwall to break up the long journey. Would recommend and hope to return.
Nothing - all great.

Verified reviewThe room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good.
The cord for the window blind snapped open at a join too high for me to repair so I was in blackout from the evening onwards. The shower had to be handheld as the wall mounting was broken and presumably had been when the room was cleaned. Both problems could so easily be remedied by a competent handyman.

Verified reviewIt was very clean and well situated.
There is no lift so accessing the first and second floors with heavy luggage was a bit difficult. There is no air conditioning but there are fans supplied in the rooms.

Verified reviewThe room was good - spacious and comfortable with good facilities.
No proper vegan option for breakfast - they just took stuff off so we only had beans and hash browns on toast with a raw tomato. No vegan sausausage, no mushrooms or other meat alternatives. Served cows milk even after ordering black coffee and a vegan meal! Need some training - it’s 2025 guys.

Verified reviewVery good price, good breakfast, parking. Room while small-ish has everything.
Don't take room #1. It's right above kitchen and you'll be woken up at 5:30 by the noise from kitchen. It was super hot in our room for some reason. As I later figured out heating pipe was hot (luckily, not the radiator). Combined with sunny weather during the day it took us whole night with open windows to cool room down a bit.

Verified reviewComfortable, clean hotel with high ceilings, good curtains, plenty of parking, and a nice served breakfast (hot and cold options available, including a good hot vegetarian option). Twin room (front-facing on the 2nd floor) was spacious and well appointed.
En-suite bathroom window was transparent (but to be fair, there were no neighbouring properties overlooking it, since we were on the 2nd floor, so not really a privacy issue). Some traffic noise from the main road outside (but it was very peaceful within the building itself -- we only realised how many guests there were the next morning at breakfast!).
