Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomRoom very small with vaulted roof, husband 6’ 2 so bumped his head on several occasions, would not have stayed longer than one night in that room which is a pity as it was spotless. No fridge, as a frequent traveller…. this is not good! Even a small mini fridge would have been ideal, a real shame.
It had a lovely local feel, traditional, but modern dining room, very clean, nice touches in room. The staff were exceptional. Sarah and Alina, correspondence excellent. Fabulous welcome at breakfast and excellent breakfast.

United KingdomWe were disappointed with the shower. It was an overhead shower, with no hand held shower combo.
We arrived on a sunshine day. We ordered lunch, which was very tasty. The staff were friendly, accommodating and helpful. We finished our drinks outdoors in the beer garden, by the river Fleet. It was picturesque, idyllic and charming. We enjoyed our time outdoors. Check in went smoothly. We continued to sit outdoors, soaking in the rays and enjoying the wildlife. Dinner was pre-booked. It was suggested that we could book a few starters and a main meal, as we were still satisfied from lunchtime. We chose seafood dishes. They were delicious! Our wine was selected well. The desserts did not disappoint. The staff were fantastic. We chilled in the lounge, before retiring. Breakfast was satisfying. It set us up for our next journey. We visited The Ship Inn at Easter time. After enjoying a late lunch, we said that we hoped to visit the hotel for an overnight stay. The opportunity arose. We are so pleased we did. We hope to visit again.

United KingdomThe reception desk seemed disorganised, although a member of the waitresses staff was very helpful. I do not like a room only price and prefer a B and B rate.
The bedrooms / bathrooms were very well presented . The seating area in the bar could be better, but the beer garden by the river was delightful.

The room we stayed in at this hotel exceeded my expectations it appeared spacious and recently refurbished and even had a coffee pod machine so was more luxurious than our usual choices and was well worth paying a bit more for. The restaurant had good quality and value for money meals with very friendly service. The location is excellent at the heart of a village which has a lot of redeeming features. I would love to return here one day.
