How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

To be honest, I can't think of anything.
Lily, the host, had thought of everything - there was even a pair of binoculars to enjoy the great view. The property was immaculate, well appointed and in a nice quiet area. The garden was very pretty and well looked after. There were seats and a small table in the garden where we sat looking out over Inverness and enjoyed the sunset.

Wow! This self-catering apartment was fabulous! Everything we needed was there including soap, shampoo, a bowl of fruit, tea, coffee and biscuits, and umbrellas. Everything was clean and convenient. It felt like coming home. The decor was lovely and the small garden was well kept. LOVED sitting out on the patio to enjoy the weather and the view. The view of Inverness from the hilltop was brilliant. Couldn't have asked for a nicer place to stay!!

It was a little further from town if you don't have a car, so if you're there for a few days, you may want to budget for cabs or a car.
Absolutely wonderful stay. Highly recommendable in all aspects and exceeded our expectations.

If I was to be nit-picky, the toilet and bathroom were downstairs. Being of the older generation, this was a little tricky during the night.
Host made us, so welcome left us some nice little touches preseco in fridge serials in cupboard fruit in bowl. There were plenty of towels and bedding. The garden outside was immaculate.

The fact they left a bottle of milk for a hot drink in the fridge was a very warm welcome. It was clean and cosy too.

Everything was perfect
It was so easy to find. In the email from hosts everything was clearly explined. It was so clean and tidy. We arrived late, so it was so lovely that they left milk, cereal and fruit. Such a great touch. Location is beautiful and the garden was so neat and cute. Views of Inverness was just a cherry on top. Thank John and Lily, it was treat! Highly recommended!
