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 StatesI would have loved some spices available for cooking but that is just me being very nit-picky.
The views from the many windows in the room were absolutely incredible! We loved the greeter cat and the cabin-like feel. The horses were wonderful to watch out the windows and the customer service was incredible! We felt right at home!

SlovakiaThis is a dream. :) Lovely guesthouse and horse farm with spacious and cozy cottages. I wish we would stay longer. It is all furnitured and decorated with love, the cottages has windows all around so you have a beautiful view everywhere you look. Horses behind the windows make it even more romantic. The bed are very comfy, the kitchen is fully equiped, there is really all you need even for a long stay. We loved it.

United StatesI wish people would turn off their lights at night. We saw the northern lights but one of the cottages kept their outside lights on - maybe suggest to people to turn off the lights at night.
Very beautiful and well maintained. Owners friendly. Beds comfortable. Coffee in the rooms.

GermanyIt’s a little off the beaten track but the horses make up for it. Make sure to buy enough food beforehand because there is no shop nearby.
Lovely cabins on a small hill. Well equipped for our short stay. The employees were awesome. Breakfast and dinner were quite nice as well.

FranceWe were a bit disappointed by a few things that were not matching the price tag: in the bathroom the shower head was super-old and was leaking from all sides + at the base. Also, the hot water isn’t consistent (constant wave of either too warm / too cold). And finally, even if there is no full housekeeping, simply emptying the bins would be nice, especially for guests staying more than a couple of nights. These are simple things and would make a real difference in our opinions
Wonderful location, kind and helpful staff, very good breakfast (and bread!!)

GermanyEither a short stop on the road or a stay as starting point for excursions. A hidden gem. More family home than hotel, staff was very nice and helpful, breakfast beat everything else we experienced on the trip, great coffee (a decent plus!) and the dinner provided showed the excellent cooking skills. Go for the dessert as well! Hot tub available.

AustraliaCramped apartment for a family of 5. Kitchenette was basic with a tiny bench and only one cooktop which made it difficult to cook a meal. Tiny bathroom. Pictures of the 1 room apartments showed huge windows but our 2 bedroom apartment had smaller windows so not as good at looking for northern lights from inside.
Quiet and peaceful farm. Beautifully dark for seeing the stars. Horses all around. Very friendly and helpful staff. Modern and clean amenities. Cosy and warm. Great location.
