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.).

United KingdomMentioned to the host about the cooking facilities and she said that this was being dealt with as was the shower. Apparently this is also being seen to. We may also have used the wrong switch but in the morning the grill worked so we were happy to cook our breakfast.
The flat was clean and so were the beds and the towels. If I needed anything the host was there within minutes and I felt we were listened to. The flat although not particularly modern was fit for purpose and ultimately it was value for money, i.e. you get what you pay for. Everyone who was with me said that they felt comfortable in the flat. We were there only to sleep in the flat and we had a wonderful time in Edinburgh.

FranceThe flat is located on a very busy road. Those sleeping at the front bedroom were woken up by a fight on the street at 4am. There is trafic and noise all night long. The shower was impossible to use. It either provides scalding water or cold. The shower floor is badly stained too. We had to shower in the bath. The water temperature was correct but the tap was broken so half of the water got lost. It's unacceptable for the price we paid.
The flat was clean and and in good condition. The beds were comfortable

BelgiumFeels kind of "painted over". Picture on the wall is literally still in plastic wrapping, drilled straight through the picture into the wall, and the wall isn't painted behind the picture. Not a practical inconvenience, just... Not a great feel either.

BulgariaCollection of the keys from other place wasn't very convenient, since we needed to split the group and had a lot of luggage. We learned we need to go for the key somewhere else right before the travel. Then they requested for us to bring it back to the initial place, which was also quite inconvenient having in mind we needed to spilt again, and take care of the transport. They requested we throw our garbage out, which wasn't pointed in any instructions / preliminary emails. In the description it was written that there are two bathrooms, which wasn't true - there was one shower, and separately a toilet - which wasn't very convenient for 6 people. The location in not central, although not that bad and we knew where it was from the start. They also requested 100 pounds deposit, which also wasn't pointed anywhere before we arrived.
The apartment has nice rooms, nice kitchen and had enough beds for 6th people, as we booked it. There were shop and restaurants nearby. It was clean, and with nice atmosphere.
