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 KingdomThe size of the room, the large bed, the location, ease of access, the instruction were very clear and easy to follow, free standing bath and rain fall shower.
The property has been decorated to a very high standard with some very bespoke features.

United KingdomParking was a bit of a faff.
Really good value for the money paid. The room was comfy, warm and clean and it was only a short walk into Ambleside. It was perfect for walks on the surrounding fells and to Grasmere. Quiet location.

United KingdomThe room was ridiculously hot and there was no method of turning the heating down. We ended up opening a window as wide as possible, which unfortunately meant we heard road noise but it helped cool the room down a little. Sadly the bathroom also looked a little tired and in need of a spruce up as silicone around the shower tray in poor state of repair and tiles by sink had presumably been replaced but weren't a good match.
Lovely location and bed very comfortable. Nice decor too and having a bath always a bonus.

United KingdomThe room was quite small but we were only there 1 night so it didn't affect our stay at all.
Lovely accommodation in a great location. Everything was high quality, furnishings, decor, bedding, etc. Location was perfect, part way between the lake and the town, very easy walking distance to both.

United KingdomNothing really, had to park over the road in the public car park but it wasn’t far and was reasonably priced. I know how parking facilities are hard to come by in Ambleside.
Really clean, spacious and modern and in a good spot. Great value as well, the cleaners were very thorough and polite.

United KingdomBeing on second floor, in hindsight I should have requested no higher than first floor. Having to pay for parking, surely the owner could sort an arrangement with carpark owners to enable guests to have free parking overnight.
Very clean, good decor never thought grey could be relaxing. Bed comfortable, carpet lush and thick, blinds as well as curtains definitely kept light out. Room well laid out, not cluttered and plenty of lighting when needed. Did not meet any staff, that suited me as I'm a private person. Loved that you can see the beams and roof height in room.
