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 KingdomIn need of maintenance, however, it's clear that recent small upgrades are not in keeping with this building, more of a modern Asian style. Hopefully, it won't be completely ruined over the next few years. Young staff members seem to choose the background music that's so loud it spoils the ambience, even permeating outside into the gardens Restaurant is brightly lit, in a modern conservatory totally out of character and overpriced for a very average meal, a curry and a bowl of soup is £42 ! Car park is too small for users, which includes many non residents.
A traditional country house with some original features, very spacious bedroom and pleasant grounds

United KingdomAfter paying over £200 a night, I found it rather cheap and shabby to be asked to pay £4.20 plus service for a latte with my breakfast. I only had a croissant for breakfast but was tempted to order the full cooked breakfast and then not even eat it as a protest about being charged for the latte (i didn't though !)
Hotel has been refurbished very nicely. My room was big and airy, nice bathroom.

United KingdomSadly it was the hottest weekend of the year and on the second floor! Heat rises so minimal air impacted on sleep despite windows open and fan on. Struggled up two floors with bags. Shower bit strange with operations and eventually managed to get a hot shower. Would stay again and would recommend though.
Great food however would have preferred the bar menu for longer as well as restaurant. Great location and good massage/spa.

United KingdomThe shower was a bit old fashioned, it dripped and there was a spotlight that had stopped working in the bathroom, which meant it wasn't as bright as it could have been.
Food and wine was lovely, spa facilities were good and the hotel grounds were lovely too.

Cayman IslandsAlthough the staff were very helpful and available a lift for taking all the large luggage upstairs would have been welcomed.allowing the 5 year old to eat food quietly delivered with the grown ups in the dining room would have been appreciated.
Rooms were very comfortable ..loved the bath in both rooms and enjoyed the provided toiletries .. one of my favourite brands Bending the rules to allow the dog to join the family reunion was great and made the evening.

United KingdomHot tub out of service, so we didn't use the spa facilities on this visit, probably would have done so if we were staying for longer. Room got rather hot, even with window open and fan provided on.
Room was smart, clean, well decorated and very comfortable. Our evening meal was very enjoyable and the menu was very appetising and provided well for dietary requirements (celiac). We had breakfast brought up to us, and this was not only delicious, but timely (asked for it at 08:00 and it arrived at 08:00 on the dot). The building and the grounds were very smart, elegant and comfortable.
