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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 KingdomRoom a little small and bathrooms need a bit of maintenance. Need a kettle in the room. No hotel parking but you can drop cases infront then go and find parking. No problem for us but in high season could be difficult.
Stunning views from balcony. Excellent location right in the center of town. Staff very helpful and polite.

NorwayThe hotel retains a charming, historic atmosphere but would benefit from some updates, especially to the bathroom and terrace. A self-service breakfast, where guests can choose what they want, would further improve the experience.
This is a charming little hotel with a fantastic location in the heart of the city center. We had a room with a beautiful view of Lake Albano and a small terrace.

EstoniaGreat location, very beautiful view of the lake. Delicious breakfast, you can choose it the day before, and it's delivered to your room at no extra cost. The room was small but had everything needed, a bit worn but clean. Several restaurants nearby. The hotel is located on top of a hill; a bicycle would speed up getting around. Distances are long on foot, but the beautiful view makes up for it 😀

New ZealandIt needs to make bike storage available. There was a basement associated with the restaurant that was eventually used but the first night we had to lock them up outside which we weren't comfortable with.
Great view from the balcony onto the lake. Breakfast requires selecting the day before but there is a wide choice and ready when you sit down for it. Staff were super helpful.

United KingdomA bit tired. More annoying was the fact that many of the photos showing the glorious restaurant and open air facilities weren’t available because the restaurant appeared to be under separate management and was Closed on our first night . The next day it was open but you couldn’t access the other outside Locations which were suggested in the photos describing the hotel. The only public space was the inside area by reception where breakfast was served
A beautiful location. We had a superior room With a balcony and lake View which was glorious.
