Each 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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomRoom 9 is in the old part of the hotel up numerous flights if stairs with doorways not ideal for anyone over 5ft 6. Bar staff gave different versions of whether I could run a tab when we were eating a meal - very frustrating!
Good location in centre of town. 15 minute drive to Longleat. 1Comfortable bed. Food was good, breakfast cooked to order.

United KingdomThe bathroom 😕 (both on this visit and the last) could do with a tidy up and a lick of paint. Flaking paintwork/emulsion on walls. It just looks tired and neglected even though it is spotlessly clean with wonderful towels. The loo flush was temperamental also.
Absolute love the welcome (we were remembered by the manager from a previous visit - invaluable!) and the breakfast! Very comfy bed and excellent tea tray. Car park is a bonus!

United KingdomThe hotel side was very disappointing. I booked 2 rooms one was ok but the other was awful. There was mould on the bathroom ceiling, especially above the shower. The very small soap dish was dirty and there was nowhere to hang wet towels

United KingdomBit of street noise early hours but no issue.
Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast traditional and vegan good. Room was fine, bed comfortable. Bathroom needs some work. Had a room up a lot of narrow stairs so maybe not good if restricted mobility. Location excellent for driving out or visiting sunday market as right outside the hotel. Private parking next street easy to access. Would use again.

United KingdomBathroom upgrade required - noisy old extraction fan!
Room was nice though on the main road so potential traffic/town noisy. Bathroom was tired and needs a refit without a bathtub though shower had been replaced and works well. Characterful place to stay, conveniently in the middle of town with parking if you get there early enough, though free more accessible overnight parking is available in the public carpark 18:00-09:00 behind the hotel if you dont. Breakfast and staff were great. Would recommend for short stay and nice bar area with sports TV screens if you like it that way!

United KingdomRoom was up numerous narrow stairs and in a separate part of the building. It was also very warm as directly under the roof. Paintwork everywhere was shabby and whole hotel part needs redecorating. Road noise was very bad as room 6 faces the very busy road. No mirror over the sink so husband had to shave without a nearby mirror (only one was across the bathroom). Car parking is in an underground car park (secure but not convenient) so carrying luggage round to the main entrance not particularly easy - unless you were travelling very light!
Very friendly, welcoming staff. Check-in was painless. Breakfast was excellent both mornings, as was dinner on the one night we ate in. Bed was comfortable and room fairly spacious (room 6).

United KingdomNothing. Some rooms are on the front overlooking the street. But by late evening it was very quiet. The hotel is a very old building and some rooms have a lot of stairs no lift. So if you have trouble with stairs contact the hotel to see if they can give you a room on a lower floor.
The hotel is in the middle of town. Rooms were clean and bed was very comfortable. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We would choose to stay again when next Visiting the area.
