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.).

GermanyThe room/studio was amazing. The bed, the bathroom, the patio, the small kitchenette - everything felt really thought through and high end. Mandy was an amazing host, really responsive and catered for every wish. Her breakfast was amazing and she provided everything you could possibly need in the apartment. The location is also great - you can easily reach Shelly beach (the closest beach) in a 10-minute walk and you also reach the Port Macquarie coastal walk in 20 minutes, which is amazing. It is a 10 minute drive to the town center, which is very convenient. The location of the apartment is really calm and comforting.

AustraliaExceptional in every way! Incredibly beautiful property with first class electronic systems and furnishings that make everything simple. Immaculately clean. Incredibly quiet and private and oh so peaceful. The gardens, landscaping & indoor decor was so tasteful. The bathroom was fabulous - a full size bath and fantastic shower inside plus a gorgeous outdoor shower! The bed was extremely comfortable and the kitchenette was very well stocked. I loved everything about Tallowood House! Mandy our hostess was so lovely - and the breakfast was absolutely delicious! Mandy loves looking after her guests and it shines out in every part of the Tallowood House experience. If you need a short stay in or around Port Macquarie - put this property at the top of your list!

The room was so comfortable and nice. It is not too far from the centre of town and the privacy of the rooms were great. Mandy was lovely to talk to and has the most beautiful fur buddy.

SwitzerlandSuch a nice place and such nice hosts! The room was very spacious and modern. We had a little terrace with view to the rainforest. There's no better place to have breakfast in the morning! Breakfast served by Mandy was the best we had in the whole of Australia! The B&B is in a quiet neighborhood, a short drive from the center and from the beaches. We absolutely loved it here and would stay here again.
