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.).

GermanyThe rooms need renovation, and the sofa is completely worn out. When we checked in, the room was very cold. There are heaters, but it takes time for the room to warm up. Breakfast starts at 8am and it is very crowded at that time.
Overall, the hotel is good, but definitely overrated.

United KingdomThe rooms in the main house can be a bit noisy and smelly in the evening as this is when everybody comes back from their hikes and tours to have dinner in the kitchen and dining area. I would just make sure to choose their rooms with private bathrooms as those are separate to the main house ;)
Location was ideal, many walks and hiking trails close by, as well as only a short drive to the highlands. Great response from the hotel and staffs for any queries and concerns. Guesthouse with plenty of charm and beautiful views. Rooms are cosy with all amenities needed and good breakfast before setting off for the day.

NetherlandsThe guesthouse exceeded our expectations! Although the drive there was a bit rough due to unpaved roads, it was still very easy to reach during May. The location is amazing, away from main roads, on top of a hill with views as far as you can see surrounded by nothing but quietness. The room was very nice, had everything we needed for our stay and the big windows overlooking nature were so enjoyable!

United KingdomWe got caught out by the weather and ability to get hot food or to purchase goods to cook would improve. When booking we were expected to be able to get a meal at the guest house. We were not aware it had changed hands with the original owners passion for food and hospitality being central to this. Both hosts were really lovely but the passion from the lady host was lovely.
Location and homeliness Furnishing in rooms and main guest house. Do not change to the main guest house to some neutral decor. The rustic feel is wonderful.
