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.).

United KingdomWe found the DIY breakfast a little challenging and the lack of anywhere to hang clothes in our room meant that everything had to stay in our case.
Clean and comfortable with attentive and helpful staff. A lovely friendly place. Beautifully decorated throughout with high-end appliances.

Tucked away on a quiet road between the sea and the forest. Very handy to get to either within 5 mins in the car. Loved the quiet! Ensuite room in hotel standard

United KingdomNothing - I loved everything
Location was stunning with a view of the Mourne Hills one way and beautiful countryside the other. The hosts were fantastic - really welcoming and friendly. The breakfast was superb. The room was spacious and comfortable. The town centre is a two mile walk or 15 minute taxi ride. I would definitely come back!!

United KingdomNothing. Fresh, bakery bread for breakfast would have been nice, but that is a very minor point.
Beautifully decorated, very comfortable room. Self-service breakfast worked well, with fresh fruit, yogurt and eggs. Quiet, pretty location, with lovely views, but within easy reach of the coast.

United KingdomNothing to dislike.
This was exceptional accommodation. It was close to the coastal town of Newcastle as well as the nearby hills/mountains. There was a very friendly welcome when we arrived. We were shown around the property. There was seating outside if you wanted to enjoy the garden and mountain views. The room was of very high quality and the bathroom was modern and everything worked. There was ample parking and a good breakfast (although I did not try it).

United KingdomNothing ,couldn't fault it
A lovely place to stay for exploring the beautiful Mourne mountains. Far enough out of Newcastle to feel your in the country but near enough for all the facilities you will need.The staff go way beyond what you would expect, can't do enough for you, plenty of choices for continental style breakfast, rooms lovely, our view was the mountains overlooking a field of sheep and lambs, stunning. The grounds are lovely too, highly recommend, would certainly return in the future.
