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 KingdomThe property was lovely. Michael has thought of everything, anyone could need. Quality furnishings & the beds were very comfortable, with a harbour view. The hot tub was the icing on the cake! Lovely & warm for our arrival. We had a fun time for my 60th Birthday. Lovely friendly Restaurants, just a few, short steps away & our well behaved Beagle was welcome too🐾 We have decided to return again next year. Just one improvement needed & that is upstairs shower seal needs renewed.

United KingdomWe used the cooking facilities every day. We have listed a few items for our host which would improve the kitchen, e.g. oven gloves.
The view across the loch from the cottage was exceptional. It is one of the most delightful places we have visited in Ireland. People were friendly and engaging. We visited many of the surrounding attractions. Our host reacted immediately to a couple of minor issues.

United KingdomThis is a beautiful property in a lovely location. Great to explore the Ards Peninsula , the Mournes, Strangford Lough and the local area. Lots of lovely beaches nearby- we had some great swims. A good variety of bars and restaurants within easy walking distance. The house is so lovely and the hosts provided a really thoughtful welcome pack. Looking forward to returning soon!

United KingdomThe hottub could have been a little warmer, the weather was quite cold and the temp of the water didn't allow for as quite a nice experience as we would hv thought.
The location of the property was serene overlooking the harbour, the house was beautiful and everything we needed was at hand. The kitchen was so practical a joy to cook in , the rooms and beds were so comfortable

United KingdomBathroom door hard to close properly, no mirror in smallest bedroom More cutlery and mugs please - would be great if there could be more sets to avoid having to handwash after breakfast, lunch and tea, and to have enough if guests come round. A few more cooking utensils would be great, e.g. large saucepans, potato masher
Beautifully decorated rooms with comfortable furnishings. Two spacious sitting rooms plus smart kitchen/diner. Utility rooms with washing machine and dishwasher. Wonderful setting right on the seafront, just a couple of minutes from pubs, restaurants and shops. Lovely welcome pack with wine, cheeses and meats, bread, butter and milk

We had a fantastic break . The facilities and cleanliness of the property we first class . Also the location is amazing , on the sea front overlooking Portaferry harbour across to Strangford village . We would definitely recommend Harbour View .
