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 fact that they haven’t been paid by Booking.com for several weeks and are having to cancel bookings as a result.
The property was beautifully decorated, in a very quiet and peaceful rural location but still close to Telford.

United KingdomThere wasn’t anything that we didn’t like.
The location of the Loft was perfect for us. Entry was by key code and very easy to use. Our host Karen greeted my husband on arrival but did not disturb us during our stay but made sure we knew to call her if we had any issues. The Loft was clean and well maintained and Karen our host had provided toiletries, towels and all kitchen essentials plus a few goodies in the fridge. Karen also made suggestions as to where we could eat out on Sunday evening which worked very well for us. Brilliant stay and would stay here again.

United KingdomThe heating is electric which makes it a little harder to keep the room at a desired temperature. Although given the snow and ice outside, any heating system might struggle. Another feature of electric heaters is that they creak when heating up and cooling down, so it's worth avoiding them cooling down when you're trying to go to sleep.
A lovely location with a super friendly, helpful host. Everything you need for a short break away from the hustle and bustle. The nearby pub has great food and everything else you might need is within a 10-minute drive. The shower room is small, but perfectly adequate for a short stay. Again, not the biggest shower, but fine for me (and I'm 6'5"!) Water pressure is great. We, and our dog, were made to feel very welcome and the welcome goodies in the fridge were an unexpected addition.

United KingdomThere is a little kitchenette but no hob. There is a microwave and a toaster though. There’s also plenty of plates etc. Food can also be delivered from nearby takeaways so wasn’t an issue.
The property is in a beautiful quiet location. Has everything you need for a night’s stay. Very cosy and comfortable. The host was brilliant and very helpful up until and during our stay! Would definitely stay again to explore nearby areas.

All the instructions were clear and the Loft is a beautifully furnished restful space. The village and that area of Shropshire were both picturesque and historic, and we will definitely be returning
