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.).

It was clean and comfortable and being met by the owner on arrival for him to explain everything was greatly appreciated. The outlook across the paddock to the hills was beautiful.

United KingdomThe online presence for the property does not do it justice.
The cottage is in an excellent location. It is comfortable and superb value for money. The bathroom and bedrooms are old fashioned but this did not detract from our stay.

United KingdomThe largest window in the lounge area, and a side window, were clouded with condensation, which spoiled the otherwise perfect view.
A well equipped chalet/static in a great location for exploring. Slept like a log. Iain, the host, was very engaging and helpful with local info.

United KingdomThe barn sleeps 4 but l think it would be a squash trying to seat 4 around the table.
The barn was quaint and cosy, clean and comfortable, great host who was very informative about the family croft and area, it was so peaceful and quiet, set in a glorious area, it was a bonus having a great restaurant on site open six night's a week serving delious food. An ideal base for seeing the area.

AustraliaThere wasn't really anything to not like about Hawthorn Cottages.
Very comfortable cottage, good heating and hot water. The family of rabbits in field provided much entertainment. Very quiet and a reasonable location to see the west coast and the islands from. Thanks a bunch, enjoyed it every day.

United KingdomBeautiful part of the west coast, a bit out from the hustle and bustle of Oban. Ben Lora and Tralee Beach was incredible. Our hosts were really friendly and had great advice. The accommodation had everything we needed - it was warm and everything worked perfectly. The fire pit was great for roasting marshmallows!
