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 KingdomSome kind of nightlight for the bathroom would be appreciated: the bathroom light is very bright, and using the loo in the middle of the night would be easier/less disruptive with a simple night light.
Arden Country House was one of the best B&B stays we've ever had. The property is lovely, and well-located about a 7-minute drive from the heart of Linlithgow. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and extremely well-appointed. Lots of thought went into the details, from the very comfortable bed to the quality of the toiletries. The hosts are very accommodating, and the breakfasts are truly outstanding. Given the quality of the property, the price is very reasonable.

United StatesThere is nothing at all to dislike about this property. We were very pleased with every aspect of our stay there.
The hosts, John and Beth were so helpful with our inquiries before our stay. They offered an excellent suggestion for a dinner location, and even provided directions there from the airport, and then to their property. Their location is very convenient to anyone booking from Edinburgh, or Glasgow. The property is so beautiful when one first drives up. It is every bit as beautiful inside, as it is very tastefully decorated. John and Beth graciously go the extra mile, and then some to assure that their guests have everything they need. Upon arrival in the breakfast area, we were greeted and shown the display of assorted fresh fruits and granola. It was so fresh! The cinnamon pears that Beth prepared were a favorite! The hot breakfast menu was substantial, and delicious! The room was very comfortable and well appointed. I loved the color theme of the room we stayed in!

It's the exceptional attention to detail that sets Arden House way, way above your average b and b: beautiful tableware; fresh flowers to greet you; thoughtful gifts of fudge and the list is endless. And Beth's cooking is a-maz-ing. It felt like we were being looked after with love.
