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.).

South AfricaThe property is in a rural location, quite far from shops and normal restaurants although there is a Michelin type restaurant within walking distance. We had a car which meant that we could easily get into Portree. Without a car it could be more difficult although I did see that there was a bus running which probably went to Portree and other areas.
The property is very well appointed with two toilets, a comfortable bed, fully fitted kitchen and a washing machine and tumble dryer. The property looks onto a garden which leads into a forested area. It is very quiet and peaceful. The decor is very attractive.

United KingdomThe only tiny thing I’d change is to add a footstool for the sofa. Otherwise it’s perfect.
Beautiful apartment: wonderfully appointed and having everything you could need to be comfortable. A real home from home! The hosts are very welcoming and seem to have thought of everything. The beds are extremely comfortable. The location is great too, near enough to Portree and the sights of Skye. These is a great inn very close so you don’t have to drive to it, and a gourmet restaurant as well.

United KingdomWe felt that the TV in the lounge area was placed a bit too high for comfortable viewing - our necks suffered a bit. Fortunately we were able to use the TV in the bedroom so it didn’t become an issue.
The apartment is easy to find, with parking just outside it. It is extremely spacious for a couple, with high end decoration and furnishing. The shower was very efficient and it was useful to have two separate toilets, and a washing machine and tumble dryer. The bed was very comfortable and we both slept well.

United KingdomThis home from home accommodation exceeded our expectations. The hosts were exceptionally helpful and had thought of everything to make this stay memorable. The accommodation is in a small village with two highly praised restaurants just a stone's throw from the garden wall. I would state though that should you prefer to self cater the large kitchen offers all facilities you need to rustle up your own meals. If you prefer to BBQ then you can do that too on the private outdoor patio. There is also the huge benefit of a fully equipped utility room so should you decide to launder your clothing you can. The utility also had an additional bonus: another loo! Great shower and water pressure, private parking immediately outside of entrance. The property is very roomy and the web site photographs really do not do justice to this accommodation. You will see from my photo of the private patio area that there is a sign regarding the dog....this is to ensure that lovely friendly Labrador 'Ted' does not escape from the owners garden....you are free to use the garden area to relax in but just ensure that the cord is in place when you go through your gate. I enjoyed the position of this property as it was very well located for day trips out. The owners have taken great measure and personal detail to ensure a pleasurable stay and it shows. My Husband and I benefited from the hard work of this lovely couple and we were very impressed by the personal and ongoing conversion of the property which was the old hospital on the Isle of Skye. If you are considering booking on the Isle of Skye I would definitely encourage staying here.

New ZealandSpacious, modern, comfortable, warm, lots of parking, private, quiet, and great kitchen, bathrooms and laundry facilities. The bed was very comfortable. It was lovely being able to walk around the acres of private woodland, listen to the birds, and look out onto the green trees. The inn was only a couple of minutes' walk for drinks and dining. Handy, central location for driving to the Neist Point lighthouse, Queraing, Old Man of Storr, and Portree. Phil and Karen were great hosts.

Photos don't do it justice. It has the perfect location to visit all of Isle of Skye. It has everything you may need for your stay, a complete kitchen, toiletries, parking, and very reliable internet. It is very comfortable and cosy, the best bed I've ever slept in a while. It has just been renovated, is very high-end, and comfortable and everything works perfectly.
