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 StatesThe only dislike was the amount of bugs in the room. None of them were the harmful kind (nothing sinister, just some local flying bugs) but it was still frustrating to encounter during a trip that was supposed to be relaxing. I hate bugs. I also found a daddy long legs in the shower, so that wasn't relaxing either. I'd say they need to invest in better pest control all around.
What a cozy little inn! It felt like being given a warm hug, and it helps that the staff were also lovely and welcoming. Pretty clean too, although the mattress wasn't the most comfortable and the room does show its age. Lots of counter space in the bathroom to spread out toiletries and share with another person. Also, the location is fantastic for visiting Chatsworth - about a 7 minute drive. We thought we'd be able to walk there but unfortunately the nearby entrance is blocked off, so we drove.

United KingdomYou need to have bar staff that know what a “Bloody Mary” is !! The plumbing in our room was poor The pressure was very poor ( I gather that the central pump is turned off at night because of the noise it makes) At 0.730 trying to take a shower was not a good experience I expected better for the amount charged for an overnight stay
Lovely hotel Very good dinner

United KingdomThe bed personally for me wasn't too comfy. I would prefer to have a small fridge within the room to keep my own soft drinks and snacks chilled as the room was very warm with not much air circulation. Feel like the bar could have stayed open a little later in the evening, especially at the weekend. However, i would stay here again and these small points wouldn't deter me from returning
The breakfast was exceptional with a good variety of choice. If breakfast started earlier that would have been even better. Great location for where I needed to be. Friendly staff throughout

Staff polite and helpful in the morning also tried to help fix my phone. Excellent breakfast, plenty to eat.
