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 KingdomWe had a very very relaxing stay, booked 2 nights, Friday and Saturday with the intention of a wander around Chichester but we found the room (chapel garden) to be so comfortable and relaxing we decided just to chill there on the Saturday to re charge, so glad we did, the patio doors to the room opened up to a beautiful, well kept garden which overlooks miles of open fields, we just sat and watched the birds all day. Bed was very comfortable, TV a good size, bath was a huge bonus as so many places just have a shower now, the breakfast hamper was amazing with all we needed for 2 days breakfast, coffee bags instead of instant was a great addition, even a little pot of boiled sweets. We will definitely return, thank you Maggie you've got a little gem there.

United KingdomQuite difficult to manouevre the car, especially at night.
The house was well signposted and easy to find. The views out are good. I imagine it's very pleasant in summer, we were there in March and quite cold in the garden. The inside was well furnished and everything worked fine. It is essentially one room with an ensuite. It was a bit tight when eating but manageable.

Location ideal in the middle of nowhere, secure, safe very tranquil and quiet. Breakfast provisions idea, nice hot shower. Easy reach of Bognor Regis to attend family funeral. Owner Maggie on hand if we required anything. Will stay again next time we cruise from Southampton

United KingdomNot applicable. Everything was great.
Everything was exceptional, from the breakfast basket to the comfortable bed and west-facing view. Local pubs, wonderful walks, nature reserves and Chichester are all just a short drive away. Old Chapel Forge is truly a gem, and the host Maggie was brilliant, helpful and friendly.

Such a lovely place to stay, the bed was so comfortable and the little touches were amazing like the breakfast basket and bottle of fizz left for my partners birthday. It’s calm and quiet and very cozy. Maggie was great, on hand if we needed anything! Will be recommending to friends and would definitely come again. Waking up to the view was wonderful!

Old Chapel Forge had everything needed for a comfortable stay. It was tastefully furnished, comfortable, clean and the breakfast basket was very generous. The room has a lovely view across open fields…which can be enjoyed from your bed should you wish! Maggie was a very friendly and considerate host.

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike - apart from the glorious stormy weather, which is nothing to do with the hosts or the venue! We had a power cut on our last morning, but Maggie was on hand to offer flasks of hot water etc if we needed them for a cup of tea etc.
Maggie is such a caring host, she can never do enough and checks in to see if all okay or if you need any extra items but also doesn't intrude and allows you time to just relax while you're staying here. We have been several times and am always grateful when I see they have availability for upcoming trips as we really wouldn't want to stay elsewhere. See you soon :)
