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 KingdomSadly one problem ..... the interior doors that slam shut if other residents don't hold the door handle as the door closes. They let go and it really bangs. Our dog whilst in the room was terrified thinking it as an explosion ? It would take her more than an hour after a slam to calm down and stop shaking. Hopefully this problem can be addressed ready for our next visit (please)
The location was perfect, staff were incredibly helpful and polite, room was nice and clean and the young woman that looked after our room was so helpful and sweet. Our dog was made welcome also. Our second visit and not our last 😆

United KingdomRoom was small but very well designed and appointed. Decor fitted in well with local surroundings and bathroom products were quality locally sourced. Bed was a little too soft for us big ones but pillows were great.
Staff were fantastic, young, exuberant, funny, lots of character which created a very relaxed atmosphere like going to your favourite local. Background Music played throughout the day also helped to create that relaxed atmosphere. Also the hero celebrated a national treasure and local hero which is needed in these times.

United KingdomNothing - honestly it was brilliant.
Absolutely amazing stay at the Hero. We stayed in Gun Hill which was beautiful and fantastically done. Every detail was perfect from the basket light-shades, to the curved edges to the windows and cielings, it just felt like a beautiful space to rest and be. View from the window straight down the lane to the Staithe, and when the tide was in the sea. Exceptional young team of staff who were friendly without being too much and fun to be around, creating a really good atmosphere in the pub downstairs. I can't recommend the Hero enough. Really loved it, and very much hope to return later in the year.
