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 KingdomAbsolutely beautiful little cottage, lovely and bright inside and a great use of windows but still feels nice and cosy. The garden was stunning especially with the river and will definitely return in the warmer weather. The host was super helpful which made for a great stay and we enjoyed the Welsh cakes kindly left for us. Also loved the log burner for the chilly nights. Will 100% return

United KingdomNothing it was superb
This cottage is a fabulous place to stay. It felt like home as soon as we walked in. Its very well presented & there is a real attention to detail. We wanted for nothing & there was even a welcome basket & milk etc so even if you arrived with nothing you could still make a cup of tea. The view from the kitchen out onto the river & mountains is spectacular.

United KingdomThe parking facility was abit annoying , as it was right next to the road not actually near the property, had to get out of car into the bush which was a tight squeeze, but we managed.
Everything was clean & cozy. Beautiful views to wake up to, with the sound from the passing river which was very relaxing. Cottage was fully equipped with everything we needed for our stay.

United Kingdomnothing the host can do but the main road directly outside with busy and fast traffic was unsettling especially given the precarious parking . also made for noise at night given we were there in a heatwave so windows needed to be open. a minor inconvenience though

United KingdomNothing, everything was perfect
Location is absolutely perfect. The back garden is facing the river, woods and mountains. The cottage is beautiful, clean and full of light. There is underfloor heating and the host left some Welsh cakes, fresh eggs, milk, jam and bread for us. It was very kind and we very much appreciated it. The kitchen has all necessary appliances so if you would like to make a breakfast or dinner you have everything you need. The beds are comfy and there were plenty of towels. We will certainly recommend this cottage to our friends and family.

Beautiful cottage and garden. We loved everything about the house. Underfloor heating was a dream on the cooler evenings and the views out of the kitchen window were sublime. The owners left a little care package which was very sweet and also provided a travel cot, high chair, baby bath and changing mat for our 16 month old which was such a bonus. Our toddler loved watching the river at the bottom of the garden. Close to the National showcaves and multiple walks including some waterfall walks! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home. Would 100% recommend!
