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 States of AmericaWe stayed in the Annex. It needs some work. Elevator was not working, room phone did now work and several electrical outlets were broken. Room also had very little light.

United States of AmericaRooms are poorly soundproofed. We had a conjoining room and the people next to us used a very loud sound machine to sleep. Couldn’t sleep at all. Called the front desk and asked to be moved but the staff member didn’t have authority to move anyone and told us we would have to wait until morning. The front desk called us in the AM and said that they could move us to a room on the 2nd floor but I was on crutches and their elevator was broken. Best that could be offered to us was a bottle of wine for our troubles. Could also hear every noise in the hallway.

United States of AmericaProperty seems very spread out. For instance, we had to go to a completely other building to use the laundry. Breakfast was good but a little hard to find, as was the pool and fitness center. I realize this is because it is built on a hill and space is an issue. Also a hot tub would have been nice.
Beautiful hotel - inside and out. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Indoor pool was nice.

United States of AmericaHad issues with thermostat that required further explanation, then no hot water for showers, no notification when the found out they had a problem. They were nice when we discussed it and gave us a bottle of wine. They fixed the problem after the first couple of complaints but should have notified when they knew there was a problem.

United States of AmericaOur room had a water pipe that ran through the ceiling and down through the room's closet. You could hear water running 24/7, which would usually be soothing, but had an underlying sound of air being pushed through with it, which just made the sound disruptive rather than anything else. There was a used bandaid in the floor next to the trashcan when we checked in and the pool was understocked on towels, which to my 6 year old, was thre biggest disappointment of our entire trip. The furniture in the room shows wear, a drawer of the dresser slammed shut no matter how carefully you worked to ease it to, and the TV cable box had to be reset before it would work. The heat cut on like an 18 wheeler popping to life, though we were very glad to have heat while we were there. Also, the elevator was broken, and since we had come with the intent to snow tube/ski, we had more luggage than normal that we had to carry up small, cramped, and underlit stairwells. None of the issues were large on their own, they just happen to compress on top of one another to make for a less than satisfactory stay.
The hotel is located an easy walk from the main strip of Blowing Rock. It is surrounded by beautiful scenery, serves delicious breakfasts, and boasts rooms that are larger than most. The majority of the staff we spoke with were kind and helpful. The pool was of a great size and had gorgeous views, hanging icicles and all.

United States of AmericaIt would be nice to have a microwave in the room vs going downstairs to heat something up in the tiny community microwave.
It has a cozy vibe. I liked the front lobby area with the fireplace and the breakfast option was a plus for us.
