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 KingdomLovely little cottage on the outskirts of Bala. Nice to dump the car and walk into town and back. Took about 20 minutes each way but a pleasant enough stroll. Cottage had all the amenities one would need for self-catering. Radiators are a bit avant-garde and a test to work out but all good fun. Some lovely walks and can recommend the restaurant first right on the road to Bala and up the hill. Looks like a leisure centre!

Self catering cottage. We’ll equipped, comfortable Owner Patricia was very friendly and helpful Parking just outside the cottage. Easy to get into Bala, 45 minutes to Portmeirion which is well worth visiting

United KingdomThe farm was gorgeous, tidy, clean and had loads of character. We stayed in the little cottage with 2 bedrooms which was perfect for us having 2 children with us. The cottage was sat in a lovely courtyard, which was nice to sit outside with my cup of coffee in the morning. The cottage itself was clean and had everything we needed. The beds were also VERY comfortable. Patricia welcomed us when we arrived and showed us around the cottage with no hesitation even though we were later than we said we would be. we asked for a cot for our youngest, it was there ready for us when we arrived. We were able to park our car right outside the door which was handy for un packing and packing the car. The farm is only a very short (3 minute) drive to the little town of Bala and the lake itself which was ideal. Thank you very much for our stay Patricia, we will most definitely be staying again.

United KingdomGreat house with lots bathrooms in almost every room. Huge kitchen, can fit at least 8 people moving around. Comfortable rooms with nice beds. It is said that this is 17 people house, I can tell it can accommodate even more. There was lovely host that was even providing wood for fireplaces, big bbq grill and coal for free. She allowed us to check in earlier as our activity on Bala Lake was cancelled, that helped us a lot. Thank you Patricia for great stay!
