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 KingdomThe room was great , however under the bed needs a hoovering / dusting (yes i am one off those people who check) compliance is my job! The window needs attention and the sofa needed a deep clean but it was serviceable (just). I will definitely be back this is a great hotel and i will be booking again!
The staff were exceptionally friendly, and the hotel offered free parking. The building itself is charming, featuring a fantastic pub that adds to its character. The bar staff were welcoming and attentive, with one person, Angela, standing out as a true superstar. She quickly noticed I was staying at the hotel, found me a seat, and even helped me choose my food. Once seated, a pint was promptly brought over by a super friendly and efficient staff member, perhaps the manager, who truly shined behind the bar. The bar area is fantastic, a genuine, traditional pub with a warm atmosphere and a positive, can-do attitude from the staff. The food was also very enjoyable, making the whole experience even more memorable. My room was big and very well equipped , iron , ironing board, tv , kettle , large bathroom with a bath and a shower and overall it was cleanish.

United KingdomThe plumbing needs a revamp. You can hear everyone going to the toilet or taking a shower. It's probably a single system.
The chalet room was very comfortable and perfect for our needs.

United KingdomMeals at night we're not good - fish over cooked and dry, chips not fully cooked so couldn't eat them. Husband had Farmers breakfast with bubble and squeak that was basically only fried potato and not much thought about presentation. Chairs in main resturant area could do with reupholstering as very badly stained. If we stayed again would try to find somewhere to eat elsewhere.
Staff really friendly. Beamish quarter of an hour drive away so extremely convenient. Bed very comfortable. Plenty of parking spaces.

United KingdomRoom we were in definitely needs a bit of tender loving care, windows really grubby with what look like black mould in corners, kept having to ask for more milk and tea bags .
Stayed in the hotel this time instead of outside accommodation, definitely prefer the latter, lovely hotel.

United KingdomOverhead shower option only - would prefer to have the option of a wall riser rail shower head too. Picnic table outside the rooms encourages people to sit there and be noisy.
Have the restaurant on site was great. The bed was very big. I asked for a quiet room and was located in an end room on a block of 4 at the back of the car park, which was fine the first night. On the second night the other residents on the same bock decided to have drinks on the picnic table outside of the room after 11pm. My husband had a word but they didn't move so e went to reception and they sorted it. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Good breakfast, although one day fruit had not arrived !? Dinner not so good - 5/10 on two occasions. Almost all staff very friendly and helpful. One night when the pub was full of diners we asked a lady if we could just glance at the menu and she was brusque/rude. The manageress was delightful and sorted out a confusion in our booking re breakfast.
