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 KingdomReally dated room. Furniture really worn and the bathroom absolutely needs updating. A travel kettle is not what I expect to find in a room at £350 a night (breakfast not included). Feel there was such a lot if potential not fulfilled. The bar should be a hub of the hotel but when you're chased out as the ladies wanting to finish, their shift was shoddy. Bar closes at 11, so don't expect to be sitting up chatting. Absolutely not worth the huge sum of money paid..
Excellent position for town and roads.. lots of other hotels in the same area. Good view of the Ness, also other hotels have a god view too

South AfricaNo lift and our room was in the loft, so a bit tight on the one side getting in and out of bed without hitting your head and no one to help with luggage (we’re not youngsters).
The location and the parking on site. It had a restaurant and a few tables to sit outside and have sundowners or early morning coffee.

United StatesWe ask for a ground floor room. Not sure what other options were available but our room window was a couple of feet from the parking lot. So there was some noise from that.
Reasonably close to center of town for walking. Breakfast was very good. Desk clerk was very helpful and efficient. Room was clean and comfortable.

United KingdomIt was a little expensive but that's Inverness in the middle of summer. The water pressure is a bit low so the toilet flush and shower weren't that great but it was useable.
The location is great, a short walk from the train station and restaurants etc. We had a fantastic view of the river from our room, with a nice window seat. The breakfast was good.

SpainWe booked a large apartment because we were traveling as two families. Unfortunately, one family had to cancel last-minute due to their child getting chickenpox. While other hotels were understanding and flexible given the extenuating circumstances, this property was not. Management was not accommodating or particularly kind, and we were still required to pay and stay, even though half our group couldn't join. Disappointing experience overall.
I liked the location and the convenience of a nice restaurant right at the property.

United KingdomWe felt the overall view of the hotel was that it was very tired. We were in the annex and it felt it really needed some work. Carpets in particular were in need of some attention. Furniture also needs upgrading. Entering the annexe area was very dark and subdued which is not a good look for the hotel. Bedroom we had was to the back of the hotel facing a wall which made it dark when dressing. I feel quite loyal to Glenmoriston as we have stayed regularly when we visit Inverness. However for the price you are paying seems high when there are other more modern hotels nearby.
We have stayed here 4 times previously which is what led us to book for ourselves and friends from abroad as we thought it was exceptional. Location of the hotel is very good. Overlooking the River ness is particularly stunning. Short walk to the town centre and all amenities. Breakfast was good with a varied choice of foods on offer. Also continental available.
