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.).

Good comfortable accomodation - Very clean and with friendly and helpful staff. The food was excellent both in the restaurant in the evening and also at breakfast, where the Full Scottish was spot on. They were also very accommodating when we had to move our stay by one day due to our ferry being cancelled.

United KingdomThe room was very hot which made it difficult to sleep, but I think this was probably due to the extreme heatwave and unlikely the norm there!
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to accommodate our daughter at mealtimes in the restaurant (she has several food allergies ). We really enjoyed our dinner in the restaurant. The room was dark and quiet after lights out which was what we needed!

New ZealandOur bathroom was a fully enclosed, internal room, with no window which is quite common, but there was no extract fan either, which meant getting rid of toilet odours was not so easy, as with shower steams too.
Really helpful staff- nothing was too much trouble. We parked our car right in front of the hotel- hard to beat for convenience! Breakfast was generous and a great menu, hard to fault. The overriding impression is that staff took their jobs seriously and they felt it was important to do the best they can in their work- what a lovely ethic to have. Very comfortable bed and a useful work desk with plenty of power points.

United KingdomBreakfast room at back of hotel was dark, dingy and looked a bit shabby. Breakfast was OK but coffee was awful being in a canteen style thermos flask. Tea wasn't much better, so neither were fresh unless you were very early I suspect. Had dinner in the restaurant and the food was very good! However the service was lacklustre and the atmosphere was completely lacking. A bit a background music would have been nice.
Wonderful views overlooking scenic harbour from bedroom, which was small but very clean and comfortable. Great location within a short walk of good restaurants and shops etc. Parking directly outside hotel on harbourside was good, you could always get a space.

United KingdomThe bathroom was quite dated and the towel radiator was rusty, i suspect because the bathroom didn't have a fan.
The hotel is well located in the middle of Tarbert. the break options are excellent, with attentive staff. The hotel also has a resteraunt and bar offering excellent food at good value. The check in was easy and they let us get into our room quite early. this was a very enjoyable stay.

United KingdomBreakfast
Location was excellent for us, room was good in that we had booked a normal double and were allocated one with a sea view.Thanks However we often use Premier Inns and room not as good as that and a lot dearer. However Tarbert seems to generally be expensive for the quality of accomodation on offer so maybe value for Tarbert.Carpet in bedroom was a pain carpet with no pattern so marks very visible and shower sealant needs replaced,looking a bit black. Breakfast service was nice pleasant staff but for us the Scottish breakfast was too much of a fry up than being slightly healthier and grilling where possible.Bacon would appear to have been in deep fat fryer until it was like leather.Opted for poached egg the following day, a better choice.

United KingdomThe hotel was short staffed, so the owner was rushing around doing everything, especially when we had our evening meal. This meant it wasn't a very relaxing experience (although I did feel sorry for him!). The basin in our shower room had a big crack in it.
Smooth check in, comfortable room with tea and coffee making facilities. Great location, right on the seafront. Very reasonable price.
