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.).

GermanyOnly stayed 3 nights ;-)
The best stay we had on our holidays in Scotland. We stayed in the garden room which included a small kitchen and a nice bathroom with a spacious shower and a bath. It was very clean, had a comfy bed, nice furniture, good WIFI and a brilliant view to the garden and river. We also enjoyed the delicious homemade shortbread and the drinking water from Loch Katrine. The breakfast was delicious with a bright choice. We loved the haggis, black pudding, eggs, fresh fruit salad and the yummi home made baking. The hosts made us feel very welcome. My husband asked Brian where to buy a cigar. 2 minutes later he came around with one, he never smoked. It was a high quality one! Thank you, Valerie and Brian, for making our stay so wonderful. It was great talking to you and hard to leave. We're looking forward to our next stay with you. Hopefully soon! Best wishes

United KingdomThere was nothing that I didnt like.
Facilities were excellent, bathroom was very modern and clean, cleanliness overall was great and breakfast was really lovely with a good choice and also homemade jams, marmalades and fresh fruit. Hadnt realised that they have a permit which allows visitors to fish the river at the end of the garden so if we visit again my husband will take his fishing rods.

United KingdomJust one thing would make it better for me, hand rails to hold on to in the shower as I'm no too good on my feet.
The location was perfect, just a short walk from the town centre, with views of the river. The room was cosy, warm and spotless, we'll definitely be back in the future, it's an ideal stop off on the way up to the Highlands. The hosts, Brian & Val, are a lovely couple and couldn't do enough for us. Also the breakfast was amazing. Would definitely recommend it to friends and family.
