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 AmericaAll was perfect
I liked everything, Marianne was very friendly and somewhat flexible with my early check in during their off-time in the afternoon. Parking is excellent and safe, behind a locked gate and on the property, which is very important to me as a motorcycle traveler. The grounds, rooms, public rooms are all charming and lovingly maintained. The location is perfect for sightseeing and just minutes away on foot to lovely restaurants. The breakfast is very nice. In summary I can highly recommend this place!

AustraliaCheck in is a bit late in the day and a little inflexible (or maybe it came over that way in translation). The breakfast was a bit light and needed more options (such as eggs other than a single boiled egg or yogurt or cereal, etc).
Excellent location between both towns. Very close to a restaurant street. The room had an unexpected bonus... a small kitchen with a dishwasher and washing machine (should have been in the list of facilities). Excellent parking onsite. The blackout shutters were excellent for a good night's sleep. The bathroom was quite functional (for a French 200 year old house). The bed was comfortable and the room is a good size. WiFi could be a bit faster but was stable and adequate for our use. The hosts were very friendly and very helpful (Spoke excellent English as well as French and maybe other languages). Period features in the 200 year old mansion. Freshly squeezed orange juice at breakfast.

This was probably the most authentic place we stayed during our trip. Marianne and Stéphane were gracious owner/hosts. We felt like we were staying with friends, not at a B&B. Property/home is beautiful (as described) and can accommodate extended stays if needed. Our large room had a view of Carcassonne that was spectacular-see picture. We walked to the city. But, the most amazing thing was the food. We pre-ordered their dinner. The amuse-bouche of a warm Chorizo/Creme/Parmesan shooter, the fresh pumpkin soup with butter sautéed mushrooms and chestnuts, the sliced duck with foie gras sauce, ratatouille, roasted tomatoes and fennel, battered Jerusalem Artichokes, the cheese (which we skipped because we were stuffed), and the flourless chocolate bar covered in a crème brûlée sauce with nuts, were fabulous! Not to mention the local Syrah/Cab blend. Breakfast the following morning was equally delicious. Plenty of on-site parking. Just an FYI - they will text you instructions for checking in - follow them and pull in front of the home and back into the small parking space to unload luggage. PS - Marianne - thank you for the recommendation of Georges in Lyon we really enjoyed it!

United States of AmericaThe car navigation system had trouble finding the hotel. Instructions on how to get to the street and how to access secure parking would be helpful to have beforehand.
This is a lovely historic property with all the modern conveniences It is within walking distance of the medieval city, Canal du Midi, and other tourist sites. Secure on-site parking is available. There is a garden and swimming pool in the back of the property. The entire hotel is elegantly decorated starting with the foyers, the dining room, and bar. Our room was spacious, the bed was comfortable and the linens and towels were very high quality. The owner, Mary Ann, was friendly and helpful with suggestions on restaurants. Breakfast was served on fine china and consisted of local ham, sausage, cheeses, eggs, bread and croissants, juice and coffee. We highly recommend this property.

SwitzerlandA minor inconvenience: Arriving by car with luggage can be a bit tricky. You have to stop in the middle of a small road branching off a main road to ring a bell and then quickly unload your luggage before proceeding to the parking area next to the garden. Fortunately, there isn't much traffic on the road, but it might be easier to let guests drive directly to the parking area first.
The Lush garden with pool and jacuzzi was a welcome oasis after a long car drive from Lyon to Carcassone on our roadtrip to Barcelona. The convenient and EV-friendly parking with two chargers (for a flat fee of EUR 20 per day) was a big plus. The castle and old town of Carcassonne are within easy walking distance. The antique furnishing of the hotel rooms with Louis Vuitton wallpapers and bathrooms, as well as the ever-present classical jazz tunes, create a time capsule atmosphere. A delicious breakfast topped off the experience. This place has the ambiance of Hearst Castle in San Simeon, California.
