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 KingdomOnly thing was the mattress for us wasn't the right firmness, we prefer medium to softer but the mattress was the harder end. But that's personal preference.
The property was great, felt like home away from home! Peaceful, close to amenities and easy bus ride into Canterbury.

United KingdomGreat location, just out of the hustle and bustle but close enough to enjoy Whitstable and all that is on offer, within a few minute's walk. A fabulous long weekend away, enough time to visit favourite restaurants, stroll along the beach take a dip, and peruse the shops. Dave and Sue have created a fabulous place to stay, the kitchen is well-equipped and has a dining table, the bed is really comfy - we slept very well, and the living room is very comfortable - ideal for relaxing after a day of walking around Whitstable! Thank you very much for the bottle of wine and homemade cake - both were very much appreciated ;)

United KingdomAir fresheners a bit 'strong' for my wife; she is mildy asthmatic;
Property is very well presented, homely and comfortable; well equipped; Location of property is very good; short walk and easy to access town and amenities; Sourcing free on-road parking near property is more of a challenge if you do not wish to move the car during the day; suspect during 'peak' holiday times it would be even more difficult. Arrival treats much appreciated and nice touch; + texts from owners checking everything was ok.

United KingdomBeing picky, bed was a bit narrow compared to what we're used to, but comfortable matress. Towels could do with being a little bigger too. Dont let this put you off though - for the price paid this apartment represents fantastic value for money.
Felt really welcoming and homely on entering the apartment. Welcome pack including a delicious home made fruit cake was very much appreciated. Great location 2 mins from seafront, 5 from harbour and 10 from high street. Nice DVD selection - mostly chick flicks but a few for the men! Whitstable is a great destination.
