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.).

LuxembourgIt is an exceptional hotel. The location is great (10 min walk to the pier and city center), the view is breathtaking - Kerrara island, Isle of Mull, Oban view, the hotel is beautifully decorated and very cozy. The room (suite) was big, clean and beautiful. The breakfast was tasty with big choice. A special thank you to Declan for his cocktails and nice stories about the region. We will come back!

New ZealandStairs but it is an old colonial house, so it is to be expected.
Great location, great views over Oban, lovely comfortable surroundings, library chairs were great, good selection of books, nice quiet place to relax. Shower was great. Kim was excellent, helped us with our bags up some quite steep stairs to our room, very professional. Decklen (hope the spelling is right 🤦♀️) the barman was great, gave us a good recommendation for tea, he had just the right amount of interaction, when to engage with us and when to leave us on our own. Recommend and will stay again.

United StatesThis place is magical! The view from the garden is absolutely wonderful, making it super nice to sit outside. The rooms are really well done and comfortable. The food they serve - from breakfast to scones in the afternoon - is all delicious and homemade. It is also a short, convenient walk (~10 min) into the city.

United StatesThere's nothing to dislike about Dungallan - it is a charming, relaxing bit of paradise.
There are not enough superlatives for the fabulous Dungallan House. The breakfast is sumptuous and plentiful. The room was quite comfortable. And the view! The view was breathtaking. The staff were attentive and real professionals. And the manager, Michelle, went out of her way to advise us on restaurants and tours, helped with transportation, and is generally a five-star ambassador for the property.

United KingdomThe only thing I would say is the B&B is up a hill, which didn't bother me but might not be great for some.
Clean modern property with excellent views. Breakfast choices were very good, with a Gluten Free menu, I am Gluten Free and the choices were great. All staff were very friendly and welcoming a special mention to Declan the Barman, who was very friendly with excellent communication skills and knowledge of the Bar drinks, places to eat/visit in Oban.

United KingdomThe only downside was that there was no dinner service available on-site, as the property only offers breakfast and grazing boards. However, the team made up for this by helping us secure great dining options in town.
We loved our stay at Dungallan Country House. The location was ideal — about a 15-minute walk to the centre of town with a quick taxi ride back up — and the property itself had a charming, cozy feel. It was well maintained, with beautiful lawns and views over the water. Customer service was excellent; we were able to upgrade our room for a very minimal cost, and the staff went above and beyond throughout our stay. The bar was particularly inviting, with a warm atmosphere and great service from Declan, and breakfast was very good. Lisa was also incredibly helpful in arranging restaurant reservations in town and even booking a round of golf for us.
