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 are 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 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 KingdomNothing. Keep it up :)
Lovely little place- only has two rooms and we had them both for two nights. Both rooms were a great size. Little sofa in each room. Was welcomed by Alan, who is a lovely helpful and friendly host. He responded quickly and happily to all our needs. Tea/coffee facilities in rooms and we were provided with biscuits on both nights. The beds were large and comfortable and it was very quiet so got a good nights sleep.

Beautiful home and clean cosy room. The property is in a nice area and there are shops, pubs and public transport available down the road. All facilities e.g. Hot water, toiletries, a very comfortable clean bed, towels and shower were provided and excellent, within the property. Alan and Cassandra were very helpful, friendly and provided excellent warm hospitality. I would highly recommend it to anyone staying here. I will book again in the future, when I visit Castleton again.

United KingdomThere was nothing to dislike.
5* Guest room, absolutely beautiful room with excellent facilities. We received a warm and friendly welcome from Alan who showed us to our room and explained the tea and coffee makers and fridge for our use. The fridge came with a complimentary bottle of milk and water which was a lovely touch and well received. We had brought our own cereals and porridge pots and Alan kindly offered to provide bowls and spoons and even replaced them every day, we couldn’t have asked for more, Alan was so helpful and was very happy to answer any questions about the area we had. The decor was beautiful in the bedroom and bathroom in gorgeous calming colours. There was lots of storage drawers and wardrobes with hangers and a portable fan and hairdryer, all very useful, we settled in straight away! There was a handy seating area over looking the best view of fields, streams and mountains which you could also see from the bed, couldn’t ask for more it was stunning! Although there is no dedicated parking, there is a car park about 50 meters away which you can park at for £8 all day and if you eat or drink in the hotel, they will refund your parking and the food is great! The location of the guest house is absolutely perfect, there is a bar 2 doors away (no noise) and a few more steps on is the start of the high street where you will find 6 pubs all serving great food options at reasonable prices. There are even more tea rooms/cafes serving a variety of options for breakfast and lunch in pretty settings. There is a local chip shop too which is excellent value and does the most amazing fish cakes which are a must to try! There is a visitors centre where there are more than 6 circular walks to do from here. The whole village is so pretty with amazing views, we will definitely be back and wouldn’t stay anywhere else, the Four Seasons Guesthouse and Alan made our Easter stay just perfect. Thank you Alan, see you again Jenny and Tony

United KingdomNothing at all. I cannot fault a single part of my experience.
This is the second time I have stayed at this guesthouse and have been incredibly impressed on both occasions. The owners are incredibly friendly and helpful, before and during the stay and the guesthouse itself is located very central within Castleton and just a couple of minute walk to the main shops, pubs and all other attractions. The rooms are very spacious, have a mini fridge which is really useful to store drinks and food in, there are maps available which cover local walking routes and it is just a fabulous place at a very reasonable price. Would highly recommend and I will certainly be back.

A friendly introduction from the host before being left to my own devices; the room was large but felt cosy & very comfortable. Plenty of provisions (tea/coffee/milk/biscuits) were a nice added touch. Perfect location for exploring the local area & very reasonably priced! Would definitely return.

Jayne and I loved our stay at the beautiful Four Seasons Guest House. The large rooms were very comfy and the views from the window were wonderful. It is stumbling distance from some lovely taverns and cafés, so there’s plenty of choice for everyone. We loved the castle, the many caverns and breathtaking walks in the surrounding area of Castleton. We look forward to visiting again soon.
