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.).

AustraliaMy only comment would be that for some people the floor height changes might be challenging - and during the night i was very careful to carry my phone set on torch as there's several single steps between the bedroom and the bathroom.

Stirling Cottage captures the beauty and history of the stone cottages of this area, with amazing little antiques, both furniture and nick nacks, matched with modern functionality and conveniences, with everything you might need, including plenty of breakfast provisions, with good choice and quality, for a light breakfast, and even basics like oil, salt and pepper, laundry liquid.... and even a beautiful garden, extremely comfortable stay!

AustraliaSmall things. The different floor levels took a little getting used to. Electric lighting inconsistent. Unsure what to do with rubbish after our stay (most hosts require it be removed to an outside bin).
Amenities and inclusions were above par. Surroundings visually stunning. The relaxing and comfortable nature of the interiors.

AustraliaFor us, it was perfect. If you wanted to walk into town it may be a bit far for some - but we did this comfortably once or twice a day (as well as walking into Aldgate which is a bit further). I think the stay could probably be improved by a hammock or outdoor couch but we were quite comfortable in the garden setting.
Stirling Cottage was an absolutely delightful stay over the New Year holiday period with my partner and her parents. Stirling is deceptively close to Adelaide Airport, but you would have no idea once you get there - so highly recommend as a retreat! The cottage was very well appointed, and had everything you could possibly need for a four night stay. It's evident that the host goes out of her way to ensure the cottage is a comfortable stay and has all the condiments and extras that you need (particularly if you want to cook your own meals). We spent a great deal of time reading and relaxing in the garden, and playing board games/sitting by the fire after dinner in the living room and it was incredibly comfortable for the four of us. The garden is an oasis, and a home away from home - we were sad to leave!

AustraliaNothing! It was perfect!!!
The Stirling Cottage was just the most perfect accommodation to stay. I booked the accommodation for myself and my 3 bridesmaids so that we could relax on the night before the wedding and wake up together to get ready. And for a few extra nights for the ladies to stay on the night of the wedding and for recovery the next night as well! Wow. What a beautiful place to get ready for a wedding and a fabulous place for recovery. Very relaxing, super comfortable and the perfect location for our wedding preparation. Aside from our particular situation, it is perfectly located in Stirling. Walking distance to The Patch restaurant and the Stirling Pub as well as the main street of Stirling in general. Quiet and peaceful with a beautiful gardening. Very well stocked - the host has thought of everything. Very generous and kind host who was flexible and understanding. Styled impeccably. I was so very impressed with our stay at the Stirling Cottage. I cannot recommend it highly enough!

The gardens exquisite with lovely settings to relax and we were very lucky to be there with spring flowers erupting. Our host Michelle was so lovely and made sure we were well informed and had everything we needed for a lovely stay. I can’t recommend Stirling Cottage enough, we will be back for another stay!

AustraliaThe pillows! They let the experience down as the were low quality. They needed to be duck down or latex to match the quality of the rest of the cottage. We found a few hairs in the shower which was a bit off putting. Last of all, couch has a couple of holes in it - would be a shame to not repair / patch it so it does not get worse.
Very well equiped, spacious, comfortable property. Michelle, the host, was excellent in communicating all the details we needed for our stay and was very accommodating with provisions for the included breakfast.
