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.).

A lovely little B&B with superb facilities, very comfy and a perfect, central location. Every need catered for and lovely rooms. A lovely roof terrace where we served breakfast every day. Delicious, simple breakfast served by lovely staff. They were very helpful about what to do and see. I highly recommend it!

United KingdomThere’s nothing that I can fault either the property, room or service with at all! Perhaps open up in even more locations so we can have the exceptional service in even more places?!
From start to finish, Maison Fernand completely blew us away with the attention to detail and care that’s provided. Each guest is treated with so much care. The room was gorgeous, the breakfast was amazing (especially on the terrace) and I think Ahmed has really done something incredible here. Thank you so much to Kinga who went above and beyond throughout the trip, your recommendations helped make our stay so enjoyable! If you’re wondering whether to stay here or not for a time in Bordeaux, you simply must. We’ll certainly see you again! Charlotte & Edward

Absolutely loved the building in the historic heart of Bordeaux. It has been tastefully restored to preserve the beautiful period features and yet offers all modern conveniences and comforts. Kinga was an exceptional host and booked dinner for us in a very good local restaurant at short notice. She was also very helpful with our onward travel arrangements.

What a gem! We decided to travel to Bordeaux on a whim and were lucky to get a room at Maison Fernand. The location is perfect, and the room lovely. What made our stay extra wonderful was our host Ahmed and his team, it was like we were staying with a really good and attentive friend! I hope to travel to Bordeaux again some day, and if I do I will be booking a room at the Maison Fernand!

NetherlandsAbsolutely perfect stay. If anything, the toilet was a tiny bit cramped but we made do without issue.
Wow. This may have been the best boutique hotel experience we’ve ever had. Nearly everything was perfect and there are so many additional details that made this place stand out for us. First, the location. It’s situated perfectly as a stone’s throw distance from Bordeaux’ Grosse Cloche. All the sights are within walking distance as are so many restaurants, cafes and wine bars. The square outside our window got a little bit loud on a Friday evening but the night was quiet and with the windows closed you don’t hear noise from the streets. The hosts very friendly and communicative via WhatsApp and in real life. No question or request was too much for them. The room is beautifully designed and decorated with gorgeous details and nice little extras like games, adapters for your devices, a little speaker set, a period box including a black towel (genius), a set of post cards that they will stamp and send for you after you write them, and every night a bag of fresh cannelés. So delicious and a nice added touch. Breakfast can be served on the terrace, in the downstairs common space or in your room at your time of choice. It was delicious and very sufficient, with fresh croissants and baguette every morning. Nice shower products too that smelled very good. Big fluffy towels. We could store our bags after checkout to pick them up later in the day. There were also umbrellas complimentary to use. I feel like the owners of this place must have traveled extensively because they seem to know exactly what a hotel guest needs. They provide all that and beyond. Truly exceptional and wholeheartedly recommended.
