Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 KingdomNothing to complain about, all good.
The Manor House is situated in a very quiet but extremely beautiful hamlet on the coast and we really enjoyed our overnight stay there. Our room was large and nicely furnished with views of the coast line. All the staff were friendly and we enjoyed our meal in the evening in the hotel. Food was good and service efficient and friendly. Breakfast was good with an extensive breakfast menu. The location is beautiful and the hotel grounds are relaxing, gardens well maintained and with stunning views all around.

United KingdomStaff were very welcoming and helpful. We used The Manor House as a base to support my husband and daughter to complete the Jurassic Coast 100k Ultra marathon, which meant we were under some time constraints for meals and leaving and entering the property, which were all met without any issues. Would love to return under more relaxed circumstances.

United KingdomSadly the coffee was too weak and watery for my taste. The food in the restaurant was good but I found my crab pasta a little too salty.
The location is beautiful, very quiet and close to the sea. The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated with sea views and bed was comfortable. The breakfast was delicious with plenty of choices available.

United KingdomThere are no ground-floor rooms and the hotel is run from the cellar bar, so it involves a lot of steep stairs, which is a bit tricky for elderly people ... but that's a little hard to resolve in a 16th century building. At least the staff tried to help by moving us from the second floor to the first floor.
Service was great - all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Meals were great - breakfast cooked to order, so nice and fresh.
