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 KingdomThere was only one socket where the TV plugged in, which meant I had to go to the Tesco and buy a little socket adapter for £4 in order to plug my Chromecast into the TV so I could watch my own shows. After getting checked in on the Friday evening I needed to take a shower because I'd say in something on the train. When I got out the shower and was putting stuff on the radiators there was a knock at my door and when I shouted through someone just said "did you just take a shower" and when I said yes said "that explains that then" with no further explanation which freaked me out a little bit. When my partner showed up and I told her about it she suggested that there might be some sort of silent smoke alarm in the room set off by the steam of the shower. I went out on the first morning and came back to find the bed had been made, bin emptied etc but the bathroom hadn't been touched and all the towels were still in the shower I went back down to the front desk to ask for some more and they only had one and said they'd have someone bring the second up. I went up and put on the rugby while I waited and it was 35 minutes before someone showed up with the second. The place was a bit of a maze, there was one lift (out of order on the second day) which didn't actually go to my wing so you either had to take the lift up to the third floor walk around to find your stair case then go down one or just learn the route of staircases to take you up two flights. None of these things were major problems but I'm just including them if you're the sort of person who reads reviews thoroughly. I would go back again.
Normally when I visit Perth I get a B& B in Bridgend but either because I was booking with slightly less notice than usual or because there was something else on an actual hotel in the middle of town ended up being the cheapest option. Being in the actual middle of town instead of having to walk over the bridge, having a fully stocked breakfast buffet and the bar open into the night were all definite perks over the normal cheap b and b experience. This particular hotel is apparently the oldest in Scotland and dates back to 1699, my partner was really excited by looking at the various old building features. I'm used to folk keeping themselves to themselves but the hotel also seemed to have function rooms and my first night there was some sort of line dancing event and the second night was some I heart the 80s party and the guests who were there for that were very boisterous and chatty in the bar (and at one point in the gents bathroom because they couldn't be bothered trying to find the ladies!) So it was interesting to hang out with a different mix of locals in the evening.

SwedenWould have appreciated USB contact. Possibly with leaving a deposit to avoid the obvious risk that people might steal them! I first was given a room very far away with lots of stairs. However, the staff were accommodating and switched me to a room a bit easier to get to. I would however advise anyone with mobility issues to make sure they get a room within easy reach. I had problems with the wifi and after trying numerous times, I finally went to the desk and was told that iPhones demanded a further security level! She told me exactly what to do using a special code and then I could access the wifi! Very strange!
