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.).

The property itself is stunning. Beautiful views. We stayed in two rooms (due to extending our stay as it was so nice!) & both were spotlessly clean, with amazingly comfortable beds.

United KingdomInitially, I didn’t want to pay extra for a double room, but I have to say, after our experience in this family run hotel,I’d happily stay here again. (And fully intend to). Couldn’t fault anything here.
The hotel is impeccable, beautifully furnished. We originally booked a standard double, but due to the amount of stairs we decided to upgrade to a deluxe double room. It was very larg, themed decor, very tasteful. Bed was of high quality, large working TV. Bathroom was exceptional, large shower, and separate bath. Breakfast was £10 extra each ,but well worth it. Great food. We had a 3 course evening meal ,which was wonderfully cooked and presented. Good value as well. Staff at this hotel were very helpful, and willing,and knowledgeable.

NetherlandsDifficult to get there as the directions you get from tomtom or other systems is bringing over very small roads. They should give some additionele info on the website. The first night our room was not oke as we had 2 separate wobbely beds. Lucky they changed us. Difficultvto get upstairs to your room for elderly peopke.
Fine location. Outside of Torquai. So you need a car. Very quite. And a very nice view on the sea. Nice garden..Good breakfast an a choice for europran people not to have all the sausages and eggs. The is continental. Nice people to help you and to give you good information. Very nice diners we had. A wide choice of food and wines. Would return again.

United KingdomLocation of property on a steep hill meant it was a drive everywhere with a difficult sharp bend onto main road. The restaurant closes Mon and Tuesday evenings and no cooked breakfast on those days but we knew these things when booking.
The restaurant food was exceptional and the hotel staff were all very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed sitting in the early evening sun on the patio with a drink with a lovely view.

Great place for a holiday. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the staff were very friendly and responsive. The rooms were very comfortable. Overall the hospitality was second to none. The highlight for me was the food in the restaurant. The excellent chef(s) produced some fantastic meals at a very reasonable price.
