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.).

AustraliaNothing - couldn’t be better.
Michael was an exceptional host in this traditional bed and breakfast. He provided a lovely tour and was incredibly welcoming. We stayed in the apartment - it was incredibly warm, clean and beautifully furnished. The kitchenette had every we needed, the tvs logged into Netflix etc, bathrooms with extra touches, a full size fridge. It really was a home away from home in a beautiful setting. The washing machine was a lovely addition, and Michael gave us the hot tip to ensure we used it before heading off to Bruny Island that has limited water. The homemade biscuits were a very sweet touch. the smell of breakfast coming from the main house was amazing. We will definitely be coming back. Explorers is in great hands.

AustraliaMy partner and I cannot be happier with our stay. The place is spotlessly clean, tidy, organised, cosy and tastefully decorated. Michael, our host, was very approachable, attentive, and kind. We felt very comfortably looked after. The hosts' attention to detail is impressive. We were given choices for breakfast the night before, cold and hot, continental and cooked. My partner and I absolutely loved our delicious and fresh breakfast. The location is perfect for travellers who plan to explore Mt Field, Gordon Dam or Hobart and surroundings.

AustraliaThat we couldn’t stay longer than one night
There’s no superlative to express our stay in this gem of accommodation. A boutique bed and breakfast that exceeded our expectations. The decor, attention to detail down to a classy book of information about the stay was second to none we’ve experienced in our extensive travels around the world. Breakfast by Michael was in the same vein, perfection .

A beautiful stately home and gardens. Our hosts Michael & Roberto couldn’t do enough for us. The cheese platter we ordered was delicious. Served in the living room. Photo of the living room…. cheese platter demolished 😁😁 We had a lovely room overlooking the garden. Crispy white sheets a warm doona so we were more than comfortable. We will certainly stay there again.
