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.).

CanadaOur itinerary (Niagara Bruce Trail club hike) had us up and out earlier than when breakfast was served so we can’t comment on that. Our room which was nice was in the basement, so no view and I could see that it could be damp (there was a dehumidifier) in the summer. Was fine for us though.
Very quiet, large balcony facing the gorge which we enjoyed our own lunch and a bottle of wine on. Small shared “kitchenette” where we could prepare some simple meals.

United StatesAbsolutely nothing! We didn't want to leave.
The house is absolutely spectacular with an incredible location near Niagara Falls, Ontario. Our room was beautifully appointed and extremely comfortable. Our favorite time was spent with Miss Helena, the special person that you meet along the way. Her breakfasts' were elaborate and very delicious. She absolutely went out of her way to provide advice, routes and special things to do away from the more touristy area of Niagara Falls. We cannot say enough about this very special place.

United StatesIf you ever have the opportunity to visit Niagara Falls, Canadian side, look no further than the Lion’s Head! From the moment we entered this meticulous home we felt welcomed and comfortable. Our host was so gracious and accommodating throughout our stay and made the most amazing breakfasts. She was very knowledgeable and helped us maneuver our way to many interesting sites. Our location was perfect with walking distance to everything. We truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home with a wonderful host. We highly recommend this lovely B&B!

The location was great. It was a few minutes walk from the GO station and about a 10 minute walk to the falls. The room was bright and big. The draw back is that there was no breakfast served.

United KingdomWe didn't like having to check out to come home.
Helena the owner is the most interesting person I have ever met, she was such a good host and we were in awe of her stories from past over a cup of coffee once she had given us a tour of her amazing property. Our room, the Queen Suite was in the basement with our own access, it was immaculately clean and the bed was super comfy, there was plenty of room for me and my adult daughter and all our stuff. The B&B was a 5 minute walk from our first sighting of the falls at Niagara. Great location, lovely rooms (all of them as we were shown them on the tour of the house). So glad we cancelled Days Inn and booked The Lions Head instead.

United StatesThe host was very prompt with all of her responses, answering any questions, and providing great area information and tips. The rooms were beautifully decorated, very clean, and the bed was comfortable with wonderful linens. I personally like to stay in a quieter location when I travel to extremely touristy spots, and I like to walk, so this location was perfect. The house is just up the hill a bit, right on the river, so the walk is beautiful, too. Being able to park here and leave the car (without extra parking fees, which are astronomical in town) was definitely a perk. I plan to return in the spring and will definitely stay here again.

United StatesIt has been so hot that the a/c in the attic suite had a hard time keeping up. Also, there is only a bath with wand as the ceiling would not accomodate a shower. But a beautiful bath! I would have enjoyed a bigger breakfast with more choices on the table as opposed to the pre-plated breakfast served. While the crepes were luscious, I don't eat eggs(allergy) and that was served the second morning. More choices, and simply more food would have been appreciated to fuel up for a long tourist day.
The Lions Head has been beautifully cared for and decorated in a lovely manner. Our unit was at the top of the house and the largest, decorated with a french flair. Lovely porch to sit on and close to the Falls. Parking is behind the house. Breakfast is at 9a and served in the home's dining room.
