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.).

All the little touches, the fire place already to ignite, the chocolates, the beautiful breakfast provisions, the robes, really friendly staff. Without me knowing, the owner was on holiday in Japan but she still had time to answer all my questions kindly. The glassed in spa on the deck was very relaxing, local knowledge of where to eat, walk etc were given and were spot on, the king size bed was like a cloud. and the garden was delightful.

AustraliaJust a small recommendation: We seemed to have very little bench space once a few things were unpacked for a 3 night stay. We loved the vibe in the cottage! On arrival Sally explained everything, and we felt right at home. Also, the couches were not very comfortable nor ergonomic. Just a mention, for those who have any back issues, or need to be in for cold winter days. Thank you. We look forward to returning soon.
We thoroughly enjoyed the cottage, as it's immersed in a beautiful natural environment. It was wonderful to have peace, ( absolute) and listen to the wildlife around us Loved the fresh bakery bread delivered to our door. Such a thoughtful surprise.

The cottage was very well equipped with everything for a memorable stay. The on site help from Chris was friendly and helpful. He recommended a walk for our last morning of departure that was a perfect way to finish our stay in Olinda. The cottages are close to the botanical gardens so birds fly into the cottage gardens and there is a nice pond area to sit around.

AustraliaStaff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. The cottage felt very private and it was set in a stunning location with all round forest views and only a 10 minute walk to Olinda township. All mod cons and creature comforts were catered for and the place was well cleaned, cosy and comfy. We loved the antique bed, on deck spa, rattan egg chair, and selection of games, books and dvds. The adjacent gardens with gazebo and pond were an added bonus and the well stocked fireplace really added to our enjoyment. Loved the decor too - boho chic meets vintage country cottage, The whole place had a charming cabin in the woods feeling to it and we enjoyed it immensely both inside and out.
