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.).

AustraliaThe stairs to our room, a bit steep for the suitcase, so just took what we needed from the car and carried up the stairs to our room.
Lovely garden setting with wonderful views of the valley and hills from our bedroom window, loved the bird feeder that attracted many different birds. Fabulous breakfast cooked by Lisa and plenty of variety. Good parking and easy walking distance to the town for restaurants and hotel dining.

United KingdomA delightful stay. Hosts were superb. Nothing too much trouble. Very easy going. Lovely comfy spacious room, Nice seating area with table & lamp under the window. Went on a golfing hol, There was plenty of space in room for all my clothes & clubs {when i needed to dry them off after rainy day on course}. breakfasts were delightful. Super garden views from our room. my wife and I enjoyed watching the birds & squirrels on the feeders in the well maintained gardens - from our room and in the breakfast room which has nice panoramic windows from which you get great views of the valley, as the property is on high ground. Fantastic morning mists. Definitely plan to stay here again next time we're visiting the area

United KingdomBeing really picky and I do mean it because I'm used to a super king at home, the bed could have been larger than a standard double
Warm welcome from the owners who were more than happy to share information about the local area but without being over bearing. The room was very clean and modern. The views over looking the valley and birds on the feeders made breakfast very relaxing. Good choice at breakfast with the full English being which is freshly made to order

The hosts were very friendly! Breakfast was lovely and the view when having breakfast is amazing! Mountains, birds on the bird feeder, what more is there. The room was amazing, water pressure was one of the best, even including a rain shower! We even had a booklet that gave us information of the area. Hosts even have recommendations on where to visit, the waterfalls were amazing!
