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.).

Warm welcome, outstanding entrance and stylish property, beautiful grounds, a spacious and airy bedroom, delicious breakfast with local products and amazing wine! My partner and I have been travelling the Loire valley for quite a while now and our starting at Chateau de la Giraudière was probably one of the best experiences we ever had. The biggest thank you goes to Claudine ( the host ) for making our staying unforgettable!

Go to Chateaux de la Giraudiere if you want to travel back in time to the romantic era of country French living. The beauty of the grounds, well aged trees in deep woods with occasional deer crossings,spectacular light and colors that the impressionist painters captured are seen all here. The old 600 year old farmhouse and wooden wine press, along with sheep in the pasture and chickens in their coop. The best part was our hostess, Claudine who reminded us of an elegant Contessa. She was very kind and resourceful with travel information and reservations. Her breakfasts were delicious with gourmet cheeses, home made jams and fresh baked morning breads. Our only regret was leaving this Chateaux. We stayed 3 nights which was enough time to visit Chateaux Chaumont and Orleans. Book early and don't miss this experience off the beaten path.

New ZealandThat we couldn’t stay longer.
Beautiful and remote part of the Loire Valley and a great spot to explore surrounding towns and chateaux. The breakfasts each morning were absolutely delicious, with our final breakfast being set up outside in the sun as per the host’s suggestion, and the evening dinner was exceptional. Claudine the host is absolutely lovely and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was the best it could be. You can see the love she has for the property and it comes out in her generous hospitality. She also had very useful recommendations for us for local towns and chateaux to visit. The rooms are beautiful and the bed comfortable. Couldn’t recommend more!

The hostess of the chateau was helpful beyond measure. She went above and beyond to help solve our issue. The chateau is beautiful, the history of Madame and the chateau very historic and interesting. The chateau is impeccably maintained and very clean. It is gorgeous, beautifully furnished but comfortable and welcoming. Memorable!

United StatesThe parquet on the higher floor was squeaky and it was hard to be quiet and not disturb other guests.
The host was very welcoming and exciting to chat with. We had the most delicious breakfast during our trip to France, mostly of local products and high-quality service. The place is calm and has its genuine vintage character. The pool was so refreshing on a hot day.

United KingdomNothing. Sorry it’s that good.
It’s an ancient family home set in woodland and repurposed very well for bed and breakfast. Top class accommodation with pool. Our large suite for 3 had a huge double bed in a separate room . Huge shutterable and openable windows. Fans available. A good sleep therefore possible during hot summer nights. Breakfast excellent. Omelettes on demand. Pool modern and clean. Secure gated parking. Friendly, if a little smelly Basset Hound called Opus. Good access to Loire Chateaux.

Had a great stay. Peaceful and well cared for family home. Our host was very friendly and gracious. Loads of history here in this 1792 Château. New pool with auto retractable cover was very refreshing and loungers with umbrellas made the afternoon perfect. Breakfast was made with care and served on high quality China with equally high quality cutlery. Of the eight Chateau's we stayed at this was ranked #3 only because it was a bit more money than the others, but in turn you certainly get more for that extra money too. Definitely worth the visit!
