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.).

Lovely rural location, and convenient for National Trust properties. We were even able to top-up our electric car. Delightful garden if we had stayed longer - perhaps for breakfast in summer.

United KingdomIt was a smallish room, and fine for me travelling alone. I felt it would have been a bit full if my wife had been with me. Also, like many hosts nowadays, the style is to put a lot of cushions in the room. It's just a personal taste, no criticism, but 4 pillows plus six large cushions overfilled the room. Again, if there had been two of us, the many cushions would have been a real problem. For me, leave them out, but that's a personal choice. Also, I could get 2 channels only on the TV in the room. Not a problem for me, as I did not watch TV, but it would have been a problem. I didn't mention this to the hosts while I was there, as it did not bother me.
Nice people, nice room, great location

United KingdomNo bedside cabinet on one side if bed. we would have preferred much less storage and storage moved to create more room on that side of bed to make it easier to get in and out of bed. We couldn’t get close enough to either mirror to see to put contact lenses in or to put make up on. Either a vanity mirror near the basin would have been good. The basin is small for washing up and we didn’t realise should have brought washing up liquid.
The bench outside was a bonus. shower warmed up quickly. Peaceful location. Good quality white towels.

United KingdomA lot of the space was taken up with units containing several large drawers that are probably not really necessary for that type of accommodation. With a smaller chest of drawers by the en-suite side of the bed, the bed could be moved a few inches more from the wall to allow room for a narrow "bedside" table or similar on the other side to put a glass of water on overnight, or my husband's specs so that he wasn't in danger of standing on them in the morning! A foldable table would be good to make eating easier whilst sitting on the bed. We stayed last year, so this time took some washing up equipment (bowl, sponge, tea towels etc) as it wasn't ideal trying to wash up in the small hand basin.
Quiet location, not too far from the main town, very clean, comfortable bed, great shower, private, easy access.
