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.).

GreeceThe standard room we stayed in was on the small side. Although it had a window, the view was onto a roof, which made it feel rather disappointing. the simple room did not really show the hotel at its best. Dinner was a little expensive, and in general the hotel could benefit from closer attention to small details.
beautiful and characterful building with plenty of charm. The style and design are elegant. The breakfast room is lovely, light and atmospheric, and the breakfast itself was good. A special touch was the bagpiper playing in the morning, which made it a fun experience. the hotel’s location in Brora i both peaceful and convenient

United KingdomWe were sat right at the back of the restaurant for dinner and breakfast which was pretty drab.
Great breakfast and restaurant, very clean and comfortable room. There are lots of comfy lounge areas spread throughout the hotel. Friendly staff. Convenient parking, hotel is well placed to visit Dunrobin Castle and Loch Fleet nature reserve both of which were nice to visit. Hotel is right next to Brora Beach which was surprisingly nice and even has some small fossils if you look closely.

United KingdomI ordered a cappuccino with breakfast which was a £3 supplement added to the room which is a bit of a shame as it is, however, when my coffee was brought out, it came with a bill for me to sign. The £3 supplement for the coffee hadn't included tax and then a service charge so it came to more like £4. Also be aware that there is a bagpiper who plays around 9am which was great while we were eating breakfast but if you want a lie in, might be worth bringing earplugs! We found drinks at the bar and the restaurant were expensive. Generally, the stay was good but it definitely felt like a chain.
The rooms were comfortable and well appointed and the bathrooms had everything you need. The breakfast was good as well, the buffet was well stocked and the cooked breakfast was tasty.
