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 weather , before you book there , remember to check . It was impossible to enjoy the balcony , the wind was unbearable. The only thing I would say , breakfast time could be a bit late You're gonna need a taxi so if you have a car bring it ( they got parking)
I would start with: The staff : from the reception , I think her name was Sara and another lady too ( sorry I'm bad remember the names ) she upgraded my booking as soon she checked my request ( she didn't have to but she did) Check in the day front desk staff very welcoming , genuine friendly It was my boyfriend Bday and they prepared a cake with happy birthday name on it . Room had amazing views , clean and got all the necessary amenities. Bar / restaurant : staff again friendly , attentive Customer service: 5 starts

United KingdomBecause of the road works, the road was being used as a cut through and unfortunately, the position of the room made our room extremely visible to standstill traffic.
Upon booking in, I received a wonderful greeting from staff behind the desk as they wished me a very happy birthday! Not only that, I had already booked a room with a sea view because of my love of the ocean and not only had they upgraded me further but they had continued with a sea view to their double deluxe room which was simply incredible. The decor in the room was so cosy and openly spaced with a lot of plugs for devices as my partner requires sleeping apparatus overnight. The facilities were just beautiful and to make it even better, it was almost open plan with a gorgeous cut through the wall to see in to the bathroom as well as making it possible for the sea view to be visible from the main room as well as the bathroom. The view! What Can I possibly say about the view to do it justice? At night with Whitstable lit up it was simply incredible, but the weather really made it better because as the sun was setting, seeing out over the sea and land over water was simply staggering! The staff were just unbelievably friendly, helpful and kind! Not only had they done all this, but upon arriving in our room, was a piece of gorgeous chocolate cake and written in chocolate was a very lovely 'happy birthday' message. I cannot put into words how splendid and luxurious the stay was here and we very much look forward to coming again in the not so distance future!

United KingdomNot a thing.
It was a lovely building in the countryside with great views of the sea. The staff were friendly and welcoming, our room was beautifully appointed with a huge comfy bed. The bathroom looked out toward the sea and with a big bath and shower we couldn’t have been happier. We had dinner and breakfast and both meals were delicious.

United KingdomThe dinner and breakfasts were beautifully served and cooked. The breakfast menu was rather sectional either cooked or cereal ,but they seemed to be happy as they were not busy, for us to pick from different sections.
We very much appreciated being freely upgraded to a beautiful room ,stylishly decorated and very comfortable. The staff were very attentive and friendly.
