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 KingdomI would have liked more information on check in, and some information about what to do on check out as I wasn't sure what to do with the key at all. Some info about where to get food in the area would have been useful. There was no hairdryer in the room, this would have been appreciated.
The bed was comfortable, the room was spacious. It had most of the basic amenities that I needed.

United KingdomThe booking confirmation suggested there was a 10% discount off breakfast and meals at the Malthouse Kitchen (at the brewery), as the Pear Tree doesn't serve breakfast. Malthouse knew nothing of this, but honoured it. Beware

United KingdomDirections given by Booking.com using the link on the site to Google maps sent us to the top of a hill some distance from the Pear Tree. But when I entered the address on Google maps, it took me right to the door.
Enjoyed our whole stay 2 nights in this charming Inn. We had a lovely room. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Breakfast can be had at the Malthouse Kitchen a short walk from the Inn, next to the Hook Norton Brewery. We spent a pleasant evening chatting to the Inn's regulars. Parking was good, right next to the Inn.

United KingdomBearing in mind that The Pear Tree is a pub, we expected some noise. our first night was fine, noise dying out by 11.30. Our second night was a nightmare. Staff decided to have a lock in. It’s a small pub, with rooms above. We could hear everything they said. They might as well have been in the room. When the music started at 1.30am we’d had enough and went to complain. To be fair, they dispersed and we got some sleep. Another small gripe was that the smokers stood below our room. and it being a very hot night,we had the window open, so got a constant smell of smoke. If you like a party atmosphere, then you might enjoy your stay. If you want a good nights sleep AVOID.
room was clean, bed comfortable. They had obviously made an effort to make us welcome

United KingdomRoom was very very noisy as above bat and it didn't become quiet until 02:50 on Friday night (Saturday Morning) and then 01:20 on the Saturday Night (Sunday morning). Bathroom needs a bleach attach and the shower was under powered and ran very hot and then very cold so not ideal.
Location was very pleasant and room was a good size.
