Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomProvide more teapots. Insufficient supply to give to everyone. A teabag in a cup is not very professional. Your website is frequently inaccessible. On this occasion, we had to use Booking.com to allow us to book a room in a timely manner It would be good if you could consider a Loyalty Programme for frequent visitors.
The breakfast on Friday was very good but not so good on Saturday. Wasn't cooked fresh and had been kept warm. Need to adjust the toaster. Toast was anaemic looking when put through once then black if put through a 2nd time.

United KingdomThey state they have disabled facilities, but they don’t. The room that was reserved for me was at the end of a very narrow passageway and I just got my wheelchair down it, the room was filled with a double bed and I couldn’t even get my wheelchair in it, I then had to reverse my wheelchair back down the narrow passage as there was nowhere to turn. The room they changed me to was a family room and it had lots more room, but the bathroom wasn’t great, even though it was big enough for my wheelchair, the shower was over the bath and this made things difficult for me. I found all this very stressful and I had emailed the management, in advance, to inform them I needed space and a walk in shower and neither were provided satisfactorily. There weren’t any grab rails in the bathroom, nor a red cord in the room or bathroom for use in an emergency, no fire safety information on display.
The staff were very nice, the room was clean and comfortable

United KingdomThe TV remote wasn't paired to the TV The breakfast for one of us was a little overcooked with the bacon being burnt. Overall, it wasn't a bad stay, but not quite as good as when we stayed at Christmas.
The location for us was fantastic for what we wanted to do at the weekend.
