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 rooms were very clean and well kept. There were lots of little touches that Garry and Margaret did, such as providing shower caps and toiletries, as well as changing towels and replenishing the tea, coffee, biscuits etc. daily. All of these things made our stay even better. We enjoyed playing the dominoes and dobble game provided in the property. The location was great - it was walkable to the local pub (the food was lovely), a petrol station, co-op and pharmacy. Urquhart castle isn't far either. A big thank you also to them for providing oat milk for us to have coffee and tea each morning, it was really appreciated. Lots of leaflets of things to do in the local area were available. Overall we had a lovely stay and would stay here again if we returned to Loch Ness.

United StatesOur only issue is that we did not heed all the advice from travel sites about making advance reservations for dinner, and that is our own fault! The property was perfect!
The cottage was perfect, with 2 en-suite bedrooms and a great conservatory for gathering. It was small, but great use has been made of the space, and the bathrooms were generous. The amenities were great — we had to go find bottles of the shampoo to take home! The decor was lovely, and we really enjoyed the garden area extras!

JerseyNo cooking facilities which could prove a problem longer term. However we ate at the Loch Ness Inn on the 1 night we spent at Elmbank which was an easy walk away.
It was great having a wee apartment all to ourselves with a comfortable bright conservatory seating area. The beds were very comfortable and everything was spotlessly clean. Our host, Garry, was extremely helpful and welcoming.

United StatesNothing I can think of. It was great.
Everything. Really. The owners have done such a nice job renovating/decorating this space. They have also thought of everything need, down to the smallest of touches. They also had great local meal recommendations. If you are traveling and need rooms with their own bathroom, and a shared sitting area and outdoor sitting area, but don’t need a kitchen, this place is perfect. There is a mini fridge if you need to store things, and the rooms come with tea/coffee setups. And there is really good food very nearby.
