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 have a small appetite and the vegetarian starters were not very good at all, but on the third evening I chose a small Mac and cheese from the main menu and that was perfect.
The room, although small, was very clean and quiet. Breakfast was continental and included in the price. It was basic, but adequate for our needs. Full English breakfast was available, but we didn't try that option. The bus system to Sidmouth and Exmouth was really good, especially if one has a senior citizen's bus card, Every half hour and no bother with parking charges.

United KingdomWhilst the room was comfortable, it could be considered a little bit dated. A few cobwebs around, but this was a minor issue and would not put me off staying again. Breakfast was served from 8-10am, however I was asked at 8.15 whether I would like a cooked breakfast. Having had to leave by 8.25 to ensure I arrived at my appointment on time, unfortunately I was not able to partake. That all being said, these are all very minor issues and I would definitely stay again.
The staff were amazing, couldn't do enough for you. The room was comfortable, albeit with the minor issues below. Food was excellent, although I did not have time for the cooked breakfast. Check out was straight forward, and was only 10 minutes from where I was working. The location is stunning.

United KingdomThere were some spiders webs under the wardrobe (probably hard to move). I'd have liked a convenient shelf in the bathroom to put my bits and pieces on. There was a noisy extractor fan from the kitchen near to the room which didn't get turned off at night. However it didn't stop me sleeping.
VERY good service and dogs are actively welcomed - this was lovely. I was told the bathroom shower door didn't close and they'd not been able to get the part. They gave me a free cooked breakfast to compensate which was a nice touch and very tasty! Lovely comfy bed!
