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 KingdomIt was pretty well perfect . This was a one night stay. We hope to return for several days as it was so good
I liked the cleanliness and stylish design of the bedroom and separate bathroom. Water and milk and breakfast supplies were provided in the room. Most of all was the helpfulness of Mario who went out of his way to help 2 tired travellers to get to Coast restaurant for dinner. Excellent value for money

AustraliaWe absolutely adored our stay. The location is excellent, a short walk into the harbour/promenade. The room blew us away - really comfortable bed and chairs, bathroom was great, the view was incredible. Did not want to leave! The hosts were friendly and attentive. Lots of little details to admire and make us feel at home. We will be back. Thank you!

United KingdomThere is nothing not to like.
Morven and Mario are great hosts - very friendly and very helpful. The rooms are quiet, well-furnished and perfect for a good night's sleep. Delicious and self-serve breakfasts in the room were very helpful for an early departure to catch the ferry. We have stayed at Ardmor several times in the preceding years and will come back for sure.

MaltaJust a side note the bathroom is next door to the bedroom nor inside the bedroom like a hotel. But literally door to door.
The room was clean, spacious, well lit and had an excellent window and view The toiletries are of great quality and smell amazing. Towels, slippers and bathrobe are comfortable. Shower pressure is amazing, bathroom extremely spacious

United KingdomWe liked everything - very much! There are a couple of really small improvements that could have a very positive impact: the sleigh bed is positioned in the centre of the room which means you have a wonderful view of the harbour through the huge bay window, whilst lying in bed. However, it means that bedside lamps have to be battery operated to avoid trailing wires... I think there were some last time we stayed, but not on this occasion. No real problem during summer months but could be a challenge in the winter. The huge bathroom has everything you could need, including high quality toiletries, but the towel rail is not within grabbing distance of the shower... again a very minor thing and not something that would stop us rebooking.
We had stayed at Ardmor previously and automatically booked again when we knew we would be going to a wedding in Oban. The owners are fabulous: welcoming, friendly, helpful and efficient. Nothing is too much trouble. The location is terrific, looking over the distillery and the harbour... even if the walk back up from the town is steep!! The rooms are lovely: spacious, light, well-presented with wonderfully comfortable beds and gorgeous bed linen. Thoughtful additions in the form of refreshments, refrigerated fresh milk and water (breakfast is not provided here which is fine as there are so many options in the town), as well as a coffee maker.

GermanyBreakfast is a bit spartan (cereals/oatmeal and milk), but it was plenty for us.
We loved the wonderful view over the harbor, and it was so easy to head into town from there. We were warmly welcomed and the room had everything we wanted. With the Ardmor Room (which we had) comes a huge bathroom (not en-suite, but right next to it). We loved the big room, the comfy, huge bed. Everything was perfect. Thank you so much for sharing your house!

Thank you Mario for all your support and even taxi to and back to the Superstore TESCO, due to our unpleasent situation of no luggage delivery at EDI-Airport at that day. You are a great host! We will certainly return when being in Scottland next time.
