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 StatesThe parking was very tight, but manageable.
The staff were exceptional and probably the highlight of our stay. From check-in to check-out, they were attentive to all our needs, questions, and requests. The property is gorgeous, every room was comforting and the food was delicious - even accommodated for my gluten allergy. We especially loved chatting with the bartenders (Owen and Craig), but every person we interacted with treated us like dear friends.

CanadaService was slow at times but everyone was very friendly. It would have been nice to have been offered assistance with luggage upon check-in but I suspect they’re not staffed to assist with this.

United KingdomLovely stay. The staff is super friendly and polite and they treated us well. The hotel is newly renovated, colorful and with photo-worthy corners. Shower in the bathroom is excellent. Food is very tasty. Perfect location, in front of the sea and along the esplanade, in a quieter area compared to the other others right near the pier/centre of Oban. Highly recommended!

United StatesDownstairs bedrooms can hear people walking- it's something light sleepers should be aware of. Just request one of the upstairs room and it won't be problem.
My favorite hotel from our 3 week trip! Full of modern Scottish charm, amazing decor, and a fabulous location overlooking the harbor. The dinner at the restaurant is lovely, definitely eat here for incredible Italian food in the most gorgeous dining room. Absolutely loved the design of this hotel!

United StatesThere's actually nothing that I did not like about the place, just a note to travelers, there's no elevator and as far as I know all the guest rooms can only be accessed via stairs.
Beautifully restored house from a previous century, spacious room and bathroom, it's about 10 minutes with a Taxi from the train station, ferry and bus station. Both the breakfast and dinner was exceptional and the staff is friendly and very helpfull.

GermanyThis may have been the smallest room I've ever stayed in - we didn't even have space to put the decorative cushions from the bed, let alone our suitcases. The bar didn't carry most drinks (including beers) from the menu.
The hotel lived up to the pictures on the web! Much attention had been paid to details both in the general areas and in the room. Breakfast was extraordinary and staff were very nice.
