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.).

AustraliaI find the menu a bit uninteresting so we ate out. Breakfast is fine if a little limited in choice.
I like the friendly helpful staff and the pleasant surroundings. I like the ambience of the lounge and dining room. The location is excellent

AustraliaWe had a Heritage room. It was cozy and there were several heaters but it is cold given the big windows and the addition of a blanket/throw rug would be great. The Southern Highlands magazines from 2021-2022 could be upgraded as mentions of past covid times were best forgotten for a weekend away. These are small things though. Links House is beautiful and we would stay there again.
Links House is a charming small hotel with a beautiful country atmosphere and friendly staff. The restaurant is superb, one of the best meals we have ever had. The location near the golf course is lovely and quiet yet close to the heart of Bowral. If you’re looking for a weekend getaway to a quaint guest house style vacay I would recommend Links House. Make sure you book for dinner as the restaurant is quite an intimate small setting.

AustraliaNo atmosphere in the front room where the fire place is - some music would have been good.
The location was perfect and the gardens are stunning. There was so much light coming in from the windows that made our room feel so light and airy. Michael from the restaurant was so friendly and referred to us by our names which made you feel like you were dining at a friend's place.

AustraliaBedroom was very small, TV and streaming didn't work, and it was generally a bit tired and therefore overpriced.
Location was very pretty but a bit far from city centre. Dinner was excellent but expensive. Staff were very helpful and hospitable.

AustraliaHot water terrible, went cold if someone in a neighbouring room turned theirs on. Walls very thin - could hear people in next room talking. Did not like steps up and down between rooms - dangerous. Had someone looking after the bar area last time we were there - no-one this time. Could have sold us more drinks.
Dinner excellent, breakfast excellent. Front office and waitstaff very friendly. Checkin quick and easy.
