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.).

FranceNothing. The hotel fully met our expectations.
Small boutique type hotel run by a friendly wine family. Rooms were fine with good beds. Good restaurant (you must reserve a table) and good breakfast. Parking around the corner. We had bikes with us that were stored in a garage. You must visit their excellent wine tasting center nearby in this charming village.

United KingdomNo dedicated parking but easy to find close by.
We had dinner in the gourmet restaurant attached to the hotel. Each of the 5 courses was excellent and beautifully prepared, thoroughly professional and friendly. A genial atmosphere. The restaurant was full, (book in advance). Lovely to find a restaurant of such a high standard is a small village. The hotel room was equally good and comfortable. We had a large room, with fridge and kettle.

United StatesThe pillows could have been a little firmer for our preference, but the bed was very comfortable.
Samantha at the front desk was delightful, positive and very helpful during our visit. The property is located in the charming village very near Sancerre village. You must visit the winery and taste the Famille Bourgeois wines just a short walk up the street. The breakfast was enjoyable with standard options which meet our needs well. The staff member who manages the breakfast works hard to have all the tables properly set up for each guest. We recommend you inquire about the protocol if you need an extra plate, coffee mug or silverware, none of which are provided next to the buffet table area. Also, come early if you drink brewed Americano coffee, when it runs out, you will only have the option of the expresso machine, which was fine for us, but not everyone may want this choice. The property offers a pre booked dinner service which was very nice for our first night arrival. All the staff were professional and helpful to us, and we enjoyed our stay very much. We had the top floor room overlooking the central square with a fountain in the center of the roundabout. We could also view the surrounding slopes of some of the vineyards on the hillside. The small village was very charming and quite.

United KingdomNothing to dislike!
The location was lovely. Just out of Sancerre, in a small village with plenty of wine tasting houses within walking distance. Our room was triple aspect with lovely views over the vineyards. The restaurant is expensive, but the food was really lovely. It was fully booked which is always a good sign. Breakfast was included which was good, but it didn't offer the range of foods we have had in other hotels. There isn't any parking at the hotel, bit there was plenty of parking in the village.
