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 StatesBathroom could have been larger. It was tight. Like what you find on cruise ships. Scrambled eggs should be simple, just eggs and no mystery additions.
We rented two rooms for our party of five. The double room we had was in a newly renovated section and everything was well equipped, nicely decorated and comfortable. We had a beautiful view of the harbor from a large picture window. Linens and toiletries provided were all nicely done. The breakfast staff was very attentive and the offerings were generous. Buffet with basics (cereals, yogurts, juices, small croisants, coffee/tea and some chilled citrus). A menu was provided to choose from a full English breakfast, waffles (with bananas, peanut butter and syrup unless you customize it. I'd ask for toppings on the side as they were overly generous) or breakfast sandwiches on very soft rolls. Eggs cooked to order although the scrambled eggs has some addition to it I didn't recognize. (wheat germ?) Overall, a very nice stay well placed in the town near all the shopping and area eateries.

United StatesThere was no elevator, so I had to log my bags up three flights of stairs. Also, there was no shelf in the shower stall that you could put your things on, which was really annoying. The breakfast buffet was OK, but nothing exceptional.
It was very clean and the staff was courteous and helpful. In a small town like Portree, any kind of location is going to be just about as good as any other. But the hotel was close to the main town square, which was good.

DenmarkWe had two rooms, the one on the first floor was fine. The room on the ground floor was quite warm, and hard to cool down or keep cooled in a safe way, since there was no a/c or ventilation, and the windows could not be locked in any open position.
Great location, friendly and helpful staff.

United KingdomNo mini fridge. This is a big thing for me when travelling. Can do with more curtains to block out light. It just about reach each other.
View, location and food is where this hotel shines. Staff is super friendly. Look, the rooms are dated and needs a bit of redecorating, but it is clean. Which is very important to me. Will I stay here again. Yes. The location is great. Close to all the local restaurants and pubs. Little supermarket nearby too, which is handy.

United StatesThe bathroom ceiling was wood and there was poor ventilation which meant that there was mold growing in the shower. Ewe! Otherwise the rest of the room was larger than I expected. Overall I think it was either short-staffed or poorly monitored. I had to (eventually) flag down a kitchen staff member to get someone to the front desk to check me in which left a poor first impression. Also, parking was around the corner and first come, first served. Luckily, we were able to secure a spot but I think it was the last. Keep this in mind if you plan on driving as there are limited spaces for the hotel, otherwise you have to pay to park.
The location was excellent and we had a view of the small harbor from our window. We also appreciated the breakfast selection and taste of the meal.
