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 KingdomI might’ve been the one who got the short straw and got the disabled toilet. Space is good but I found the floor a bit dirty when I had a shower. would’ve preferred a walk-in shower but it’s most likely everything else was fully booked.
As always the food in the restaurant was amazing, can’t ever fault the food or drink!

United Kingdomfunny noise from the loo after I flushed it in the morning. my wife, who has a keener sense of smell than I have, could smell something on the sheets (dry cleaning??) a workman parked a van outside our bedroom in the morning and was coming and going, so had to keep the blind shut
Room was well decorated with a good sized double bed. Shower was hot and strong. Room was quiet (in a separate block at the back.) Excellent supper in the pub that evening. Pleasant atmosphere. the garden looks a good space too but the weather was a bit too cold for us. Breakfast the next day was tasty, nicely cooked (not greasy, eggs with runny yolks, bacon lean etc.) and plentiful. And both accomodation and food were good value.

United KingdomI had a ground floor room with roller blind at window. This meant that I had to keep the blind down even when it was light as people walk right past the window. We had booked a table for dinner several weeks earlier but were given a table apart from the main restaurant.
Breakfast was very good, and big portions

We had Room 7 which was significantly larger than our previous stay. The room was well equipped and very comfortable. The dinner was a step up from the last time we stayed; to which we passed onto the staff, and the breakfast is always very good.

United KingdomAfter pub bar shuts, there’s quite a lot of noise from outside in the car park. The pub does ask people leaving to be quiet but it seems quite a few patrons have little consideration for those residents needing to get to sleep.
Comfortable clean room, excellent food and friendly staff, a great place to stay. Breakfast was absolutely superb, absolutely first rate and the service is top notch too.
