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.).

AustraliaThe property is located adjacent to the main road and the traffic noise was a bit loud after 6.00am.
Ashdowns was a great place to stay, walking distance from Dover shops, cafes and RSL. Gary could not have been more attentive and helpful, he certainly deserves all the Tasmania Tourism Awards he has received.

United StatesDespite being near the road and a little concerned about noise, there was not an issue at all in the room I stayed in.
Convenient location to all nearby activities. The hearty breakfast was excellent, eaten while enjoying a great view. I enjoyed some very nice and interesting conversations with Gary, the host.

Gary went above and beyond for my wife and I. We travelled for weddings and he was so attentive and went out of his way to make sure we had brekkie before our long drive home. So grateful and well looked after. Highly recommend staying with Gary and Lorraine. Hopefully we’ll be there again.

On arrival Gary was very welcoming and happy to answer any questions about Dover and its surrounds. Situated on the main road into town but noise was not noticeable at night. Bed and Breakfast set up was prestine, with the room we booked being large, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful and very much appreciated. Gary goes that extra mile by providing a hearty cooked breakfast as well as offering a selection of continental items. Grounds were lovely and parking off road. Exceptional A+ business.

AustraliaUnfortunately the only thing would have been my hubby asked for fried eggs and he got poached, that was okay, I ate them and he was very full after the delicious breakfast oat, yoghurt, berry mix! Great host!
The hospitality was exceptional from start to finish. Love the area, the walk down to the back of the property with the cute cabin and the open fire which was ready to be lit, we enjoyed that! The rooms were clean, cosy, and comfortable too.

Gary was an exceptional host. He went above and beyond in helping my partner and I to adjust our preplanned itinerary to accommodate for poor weather conditions, arranged restaurant bookings for us due to our interstate sim cards not receiving signal service, and prepared satisfying breakfasts for us throughout our stay. Further, when my partner and I visited 'Masaaki's sushi' for lunch in Geeveston after our departure from Ashdowns of Dover (as was planned within our itinerary), the restaurant owner and sushi chef 'Masaaki' immediately recalled Gary after we explained that we had been staying in Dover - ultimately speaking volumes about Gary's knowledge, connections and well-formed suggestions. Overall, our holiday started off on a positive note thanks to Gary. We highly recommend Ashdowns of Dover.
