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 KingdomWas more booking.com than the host but i didn't get the messages about being able to bag drop until days after they were sent so didn't bring one and therefore had to travel very light. Again not the boat owners issue seems theres some bugs in the booking.com system
Great home from home without all the formalities of a hotel . Comfortable and in a decent location. Made me want a boat holiday now !

We had a lovely stay on Millie Grace. It was our first time staying on a houseboat and it certainly won't be our last. Everything was well organised from the info sent to us before our arrival and once on the boat. The boat was exceptionally comfortable and cosy, with a lot of attention to detail and customer comfort.

Location and something different. It was quiet and warm. It was lovely when we returned to the boat later in the evening to see the boat all lit up and even the lamp inside was on, s on a timer!

United KingdomThere was no paper towel or sponge, which we had to bring our own, but dishwasher was provided. There was also no extra toilet paper if it runs out. But other than that, everything was clean and perfect!
I was looking for a unique experience within Sheffield city centre when I stumbled upon this Houseboat Hotels. Stayed for just one night with my partner to celebrate birthday and I loved it very much. There are 2 boats to choose from, which is just next to each other and a parking was provided right in front of the boat. I was worried if it would be cold inside but the heating was perfect all throughout the boat. There was one double bed, one bunk bed, and a sofa (probably a sofa bed), which I’d say would be comfortable up to 4 people to stay. There was a stove and oven to cook with complete set of kitchen utensils and also fridge. Bed was made upon arrival and towels were provided. They provided an instruction before checking-in and left a simple instruction sheet that explains on how to use the stove, shower, etc.

The houseboat was beautiful, situated in a lovely area. Cosy, especially when lit up at night. All facilities provided. Cafe and pub were superb and delivered food to the boat. 3 minute walk to Ponds Forge so ideal for kids. Would love to stay again one day xx

Absolutely everything, there’s nothing wrong with it at all, it’s like staying in a mini hotel except a lot cooler. It’s very comfortable and the leisure activities near it are also great.

United KingdomThere was nothing I didn't like that wasn't just a feature inherent to living on a boat for a few days! If you're up for something a little different then everything here is tip top.
The boat was very well presented, clean, and tidy. The instructions provided for finding the boat and parking space were good (better than the satnav!) and the area was quiet and felt safe despite it's proximity to a busy (but friendly) bar and the city centre. The instructions for making use of the facilities on board were also good, not overwhelming and covered what you need to know to be comfortable.
