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 KingdomFirst and foremost, the host was so LOVELY. I never got her name, but she was so sweet and considerate. The location of the place was perfectly situated in Windermere; everything was a short walk away - cafes, hiking trails, grocery stores, etc. The place was quiet, peaceful, and immaculately clean! Smelled clean, looked clean, and everything was in tip top shape. The small things were the cherry on top (little soaps, cute teacups and kettle in the room, cookies, slippers, robe, etc.). The breakfast was so good (with much variety!) and the breakfast room was really cozy and lovely, too. If you want to get to Windermere Lake or Bowness, you can definitely walk there from Windermere, but taxis and busses are available, too. I'm sure the host will help find options for you. :) I couldn't recommend it more, really. I had a relaxing stay.

United KingdomNo problems at all - everything was great!
Breakfast was exceptional … good choice, able to customise the Full English, and well cooked. Our room was perfect with many thoughtful extras, such as beautiful mugs for the tea and coffee. We were lucky to have parking, as another guest came by train, but the main car park is large and only a very short walk away. The Haven is really central for the shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants, as well as Booths, Lakeland, and the bus and train! We used the buses for the first time on this trip and were able to get wherever we wanted for walks, shopping and visits. It was an absolute delight to stay here - we usually like to try different B&Bs/cottages when we come to the lakes but we’ll definitely be coming back here unless there’s a very good reason not to! 😂 Thank you very much x

United States of AmericaLighting wasn't great for reading. Shower head needs a bit of an update. Pressure and positioning weren't ideal. Nothing serious that would deter anyone from coming back to such a pleasant place.
