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.).

Accessing the cottage was easy based on instructions provided by host. We really liked the beautiful, well equipped cottage and quickly felt like at home. The interior decoration is thoughtful. The location very close to the 3 Sisters and the Prince Henry cliffwalk is superb.

BelgiumThe only hiccup we had was that the cottage is quite cold. There is a nice artificial open fire in the living room but we all did get cold during the night, so an extra blanket on the beds would be necessary. Other than that, everything was perfect
Gorgeous little cottage with an impressive garden. Well decorated, equipped, super clean and the beds are comfortable. The owner is responsive and kind. The location is the best, right by the three sisters!

AustraliaProperty only had one bathroom, so a second toilet would be handy. Driveway a bit narrow, but still wide enough for a large SUV - perhaps move the pots on the driveway to make it easier to open car doors. Back gate did not open, but would have been easier to bring in luggage if it was accessible.
Location was excellent, walking distance to echo point. Property had a very homely feel and the host had considered everything travellers may need. Well equipped kitchen with condiments and spices in the cupboard for use. Beautiful garden. Very clean and thoughtfully presented property. We will certainly be coming again. Deborah the host was very responsive and very helpful.

IrelandThis place is amazing! From the start we had great communication from the host. When we arrived we found a beautifully decorated, clean, comfortable and spacious cottage, with a fully equipped kitchen, air-con, and wi-fi. A standout feature is the large, beautifully kept back garden, complete with a lovely fish pond! The location is also amazing, just a few minutes walk to the Three Sisters lookout at Echo Point, and a few minutes drive to other beautiful lookouts as well as Scenic World.

SingaporeAlthough is not common in Australia, but a toilet seat with warmer will makes the stay more pleasant.
Winston cottage is clean, homely and decorated beautifully. Owner also prepared some cooking ingredients like oil, salt, sugar butter which we can use for simple cooking for our daughter. The warmer in the house and bed is definitely a plus point for cold weather. The garden at the backyard is beautifully maintained.

AustraliaThe only minor suggestion to make the stay even more wonderful, it would be to consider providing milk as part of the amenities. Having milk readily available would have been the perfect addition to our mornings.
We had a fantastic stay at this property with our family. It was an experience we will cherish. The accommodations were not only comfortable but also exceptionally clean and well-maintained. One highlight of our stay was the stunning garden. The garden was not just beautiful but meticulously tended too. The colourful flowers added a touch of magic to our mornings, and we often found ourselves strolling through it, admiring the vibrant blooms.
