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 KingdomWas a little bit farther out than we expected. Roads very narrow in the dark.
The cottage is beautiful, well equipped. Very cosy and comfortable.

United KingdomFirstly, upon arrival one of the ladies went to the toilet only to find there were two men from the campsite behind with a full view into the bathroom. No frosted windows. To say our privacy felt threatened would be an understatement. Secondly, everywhere seemed clean at first glance but upon closing bedroom doors and moving curtains there were loads of dead spiders and other bugs lying around that had been missed when hoovering. Lastly, the first and only full day of our stay we discovered around 11.30am after one of the girls went to make herself a drink of water that we had no water at all, we contacted the emergency contact number that was in the cottage, as well as booking.com and Sykes cottages, when we hadn’t heard anything and still had no water we called Sykes cottages directly and spoke with a lady who was not very helpful and laughed when we explained the situation to her, she said she would try to contact the owner and let us know. About an hour and a half after this call we heard back that there was a problem with Yorkshire water but it had been fixed and water will be back in the cottage at some point but we weren’t given specifics. We checked on Yorkshire water’s website and it said there were no issues in the area so we called Sykes cottage’s back and explained that we still had no water and due to this also had no heating, at this point we were without any water for 5+ hours, consequently meaning we were unable to wash our hands, flush the toilets and have any water to drink. The lady this time was much more helpful and took us seriously, and explained she will keep trying to contact the owner and will be in touch with us within the next half hour. We heard back from her after about 40 minutes (due to bad signal) and she explained she could not get through to the owner but will let us know when she had gotten through to him.
The house was a lovely house, spacious and well decorated. Exactly like the pictures.
