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 KingdomLighting in the kitchen was a bit dim and not much space for food storage (although the kitchen was a great place to eat). Conservatory looked fantastic but was incredibly cold when we visited in the depths of December. Description should include location off road to beach/slipway.
Big old house in a fantastic location. Lots of cooking pots/utensils and a double cooker. Plenty of parking. Great outdoor space. Comfy lounge. Welcome gifts (wine and biscuits). Heating warmed the house really quickly despite the open space. Wood burner was an added bonus. Easy walking down to dinosaur beach and slip way.

United KingdomNothing! Everything was perfect! Absolutely loved our stay!
We loved everything! This was the most beautiful and charming cottage we've stayed in. We only stayed for one night but wished we had stayed for longer! The whole house was very clean and spacious. The house was very old but it's been taken care of so well that its age gave it a nice charm to the house. It also had many modern touches to it and new modern tools that were usedul. The location was superb, on a hill top with views over the garden, mountains and the ocean. Our favourite part of the house was the conservatory that had some amazing views. We can't wait to come back to it!

The house had so much character, and was extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated . It was lovely that a bottle of wine and some home made biscuits with wild flowers were left on our kitchen. It gave a lovely personal touch and all the facilities were available.

United KingdomThe old inn is situated in the most beautiful setting with views overlooking the sea. The house itself has a great history and is so beautiful- it is tastefully decorated, extremely comfortable and well equipped. Calum the host of very friendly and helpful, he has the most well behaved dog who loves to play and adores children. We really had a wonderful stay and hope to be back again soon!
