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.).

Location was terrific. Very quiet cottage in amongst the vines and lots of visiting kangaroos. And only a couple of minutes walk to our concert

AustraliaThe only glitch we experienced this time was no wifi. There was something wrong with the router and it kept turning on and then off again, flickering, but never stayed on long enough for anyone to check their messages. It wasn’t too much of a problem as we were not there for the wifi, however we had relatives with us that needed to check in for their flight home and check on its status. I called reception who said they would send maintenance, but it was not fixed. Minor inconvenience, but an inconvenience nonetheless.
Another wonderful stay - our third time at the Homestead. It is truly peaceful and beautiful with so much space and kangaroos everywhere! Our favourite place to stay in the vineyards.

AustraliaLovely homestead but downstairs bathroom doesn't appear to be in keeping with the rest of the place - a bit tired and therefore comes across as not as clean and modern as the rest of the place.
Great location, spacious and great communication from staff. Thank you, Liz, for all your help with the bed configuration and extras ordered. Master bedroom was very spacious and comfy from what we have been told. The pool, pool table and darts kept the kids entertained after a long drive. Kangaroos coming by for a visit in the afternoon and bunnies in the morning were a bonus.

AustraliaNot accommodation related but we missed out on wine tasting at Bimbadgen because the cellar door closed so early. We'd come from a cellar door closing at 5pm and the one before at 6pm, only to realise the cellar door at Bimbadgen closes at 4pm!! Don't make the same mistake as us, as was sad to not try the wine at the place we were staying. We should have done our research too.
Loved our stay at the Cottage at Bimbadgen. Such a great central location and base for visiting the Xmas Lights at Hunter Valley Gardens and enjoying all the local wineries and food offerings in the area. We felt so rested and didn't want to go home. We didn't have time to utilise the pool this time round as we were just so busy out and about, but next time we'd bring the swimmers. Beautiful outlook and next time we'd enjoy a cheeseboard on the veranda with the stunning view out to the vineyards

Australiait’s an older house and needs a lot of work done - but it’s liveable. to be honest - they really need to renovate the bathrooms as a minimum. the showers hardly work and it’s just not nice.
the homestead was large and really great for a larger group. the pool was amazing and the outlook beautiful.

Absolutely stunning setting and huge grand house. Felt like we were in a film! Kangaroos everywhere - at one point we counted 23 that we could see from the verandah. Lovely clean pool, immaculately clean house, bags of space for us all and very comfortable beds. House stocked with everything you could possibly need. Bottle of bubbly in the fridge on arrival, nice cheese and continental brekkie on our first morning. One of the best places we have ever stayed - will DEF be back!

AustraliaMy only 2 negatives which wouldn't stop me from staying again was that the cottage was also rented out and there are no blinds for privacy in the lounge room and a slightly larger dinning table
The house and the space was great for a group of friends catching up with the lounge and the bedrooms separated. The pool table and the darts and heating were all well utilised . The extra touch of having some breakfast foods and welcoming package was a great surprise. The location was handy and a great base for our weekend.

It’s also very hot without aircon anywhere except for the master bedroom upstairs.
