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.).

Everything was fantastic. The common area was very comfortable and inviting. The room was fantastic with everything we could need. Bed was very comfortable and the location was just outside of downtown area to allow for it to be quiet but a short walk to everything you needed to see.

AustraliaNot that I didn’t like it but please be aware the only sign that you are at right location is a small B&B sign. I couldn’t see name of hotel anywhere. We weren’t certain we were at right location but Michele was available on WhatsApp to help.
Great location with a very short walk to main square and Christmas market. Room was very good size with large comfy bed. Host (Michele) was lovely and friendly and kept in touch via WhatsApp to check on our arrival time and make sure she was there to greet us. Welcome (free) drink was nice touch.

United KingdomNot a lot, we would return! It’s a large renovated house so you can hear some noise from the other rooms, but this wasn’t an issue for us. Everybody was respectful.
The room was large, comfortable and well thought out. The bed was really comfy, the shower was powerful and warm. The shared area (between only 4 rooms) was also gorgeous and inviting, and the downstairs loo and left luggage area was useful on our last day of exploring as we’d already checked out. Michelle was friendly and communicative. The location is superb, a 25min walk from the station and 5 minutes into the centre of Bruges. Also 10mins to the old town and windmills. Excellent all round, really top drawer.

United StatesThe steps were a bit scary for me (knee problems) but young healthy adults will have no problem with them. There could have been a free breakfast option, but there was no breakfast included.
Beautiful B & B very close to the center of town. Free shuttle to the city center and train station was right around the corner. Internet was spotty for me, but it might have just been my equipment. The room was spacious, comfortable and modern. Breakfast room and garden.

United KingdomNothing to be honest. It did get a bit hot in the room (it was over 29 degrees that day) but there was a fan available for the room which worked a treat. There's everything available for you so all you need to bring is yourself and clothes.
Everything. This place is great - one of the best places I've stayed in and I will be returning. I travelled with my 4 year old and it was perfect from start to finish. Great location, room was so nice and spacious (with a big comfy bed and everything looked extremely clean), great shower and it felt like you were in a stylish cosy house away from your own home and not like an actual hotel. Michèle was superb - friendly, very easy to reach at anytime and allowed me to leave my luggage in the property so I can do one final walk around Bruges after checkout. As a female travelling with a toddler, I felt the property was really safe too - which is important. I also found not having a key (apart from the bedroom key) was ideal as you were given a code to enter the house and it was nice and easy. There were cold drinks, wine, beer and coffee available downstairs + books and kid puzzles etc as well as breakfast (which we didn't have but looked great). The location is amazing, next to a Michelin restaurant, the canals and 10 mins walk in the city centre. I highly recommend Absolute Bruges. The host really did think about making it a memorable stay. Thank you!
