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.).

The hosts had clearly made an effort to make us feel welcome. The whole family was impressed with the cottage - which is a rare thing! We loved the Christmas Tree in the lounge. The beds were cosy, the shower was powerful and we didn’t run out of hot water, my youngest enjoyed a jigsaw and there was spare oil in the cupboard to fry eggs 😆.

The decor was lovely , the beds were very comfortable and the setting was peaceful. The pub at the top of the lane was very handy ( the Fox)

United KingdomThere a no direct access to the property by car. We had to park a few streets away, which is ok, but with kids and multiple bags is a minor pain. It is possible to drive through the park (on a well used footpath) to offload bags, but that option is not very practical.

United KingdomNot being able to park next to the cottage wasn't ideal but parking in a side street nearby was OK. Un/Loading the car was OK due to temporary pass allowing access to the property thro the park.
Nice well furnished & comfortable cottage located on the edge of a nice green space. Excellent kitchen facilities and modern bathroom. A welcome pack of local food goodies & milk was a nice bonus. We had question regarding the function of the oven but our host was quickly round to explain.

United KingdomFantastic stay in this lovely cosy cottage. We stayed one week and the cottage had everything we could have possibly needed. It was very comfortable throughout and had a well equipped kitchen. A short stroll across the park brings you to many shops and restaurants. Parking was not an issue and was readily available a 2 minute walk away. Sam and Vicky were brilliant hosts
