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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Attention to detail missing. For example, there were curtain hooks missing from one bedroom curtain and it was difficult to close. One of the cushions on the bed was grubby and the carpets could do with a clean.
The staff were all fabulous - friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble.

Bed was a bit hard for me, but some people like that.
Lovely little old fashioned (in the good sense of those words) place in a nice Sussex village close to Battle and Hastings. Friendly staff, good private parking and a very nice feel to the place. Very good sized room for the price we paid.

The bedrooms were a little tired, especially the bathroom, which was due an upgrade. We ate in the restaurant with guests and our experience in terms of the food we ate was not great. We probably should have complained. The meal was reasonable, but nobody on a table if four thought the food was good, It felt as though the chef was just using up whatever was left in terms of vegetables and the strange array of sauces did not work. It was a shame because the staff were very nice and worked very hard to make the evening nice.
The room was well appointed and clean. The bed was really comfortable. The staff were excellent and really tried to make you at ease and nothing was too much trouble.

A slightly run-down hotel, with little to recommend it if it's a stay for pleasure. The evening food was OK, sort of fine dining, but not quite there. Skip the scudo continental breakfast. Go for the full English if you're bothering.
Comfortable clean room. The staff are friendly

The remarkably long walk to our room, otherwise nothing.
A very pleasant, well-run hotel, with experienced friendly staff. Our room was a bit smaller than some but was comfortable and adequate, with a super king bed and TWO armchairs, which you don’t get in many hotels. The restaurant was excellent for breakfast and dinner, with plenty of choice on the menu which changed daily, and a simple and very reasonable pricing system. One day we unexpectedly asked if we could have some sandwiches for lunch in the bar, and were given a choice a which included some lovely smoked salmon.

Breakfast was a very small portion. Asked for scrambled egg. About 2 teaspoons of egg. ( 1 egg possibly) , half of 1 tomatoe. A miniture hash brown 1 inch long. No need to be so stingy. Cutting costs on breakfast. Dissapointing
Very comfortable bed. Clean and good shower. Quiet location.
