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.).

SpainA little expensive I'd say, and not super central to walk downtown.
The area is residential, quiet and nice to see with lovely houses. Free parking, house is charming, welcoming and full of heart. Decoration is astonishing, bedroom was simple but bed super comfy, kitchen good to cook your own food. Love that you leave your shoes at the entrance it feels like home.

ChileToo many stairs, so try to go with no too much luggage.
Everything was amazing. The hotel is lovely and the castle view is amazing! The best thing out of everything. You will feel like you are in the old times. The room was really clean and spacious. We paid for breakfast and it was worth it.

CanadaIt would be nicer experience if the welcoming staff wore something more than a sports bra and a spandex shorts. We felt out of place when we were welcomed like that. Also it would be nice to have a shower hat and a shower gel. No TV - nice for a authentic experience, but super unusual for a hotel. I wish I knew that there is TV in the room ahead of time, and I would have brought a laptop with me.
Location was very nice, close to main attractions, to gas station-if u need to grab smth quick. Gorgeous view, authentic heritage building experience. Breakfast is very nice, breakfast is yummy and great $ value. Place is very clean. Slippers are nice touch too.

CanadaNothing.
This was our second stay at Craigmyle and the experience was very positive, just like our first visit 16 months ago. We stayed in a different room this time, also with a seating area but no window facing the castle, unfortunately. The room has a small kitchenette, with a microwave and a kettle, therefore we did not need to trek down to the common area for hot water. This was a plus. Staff were all very friendly and efficient. It was very quiet at night, although the property looked fully booked - judging from the number of shoes along the hallway …. (No shoes inside the hotel). We would stay again at this property next time we are in Victoria.

United StatesJust need to fix one or two of the stairs going down to the lower level. No big deal. It was just a little precarious.
We loved the common area where we played games in the evening and did puzzles together. The location in the quiet neighborhood right next to the castle was perfect.

CanadaRoom was very hot (even in Winter with the window open). We had no control over room temperature given the historic radiator heating system. Just would not want to stay in summer although they do provide a fan.
Old historic building and antique furnishings.
