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 property had blinds throughout . If you’re travelling with young children you will need black out for the windows. We just used black bags (provided) and it worked a treat.
Seamus, had everything we needed for a home away from home experience. Clean towels, tea towels and fresh white bedding. The view from the property was just stunning.

United KingdomSeamus is a brilliant host. I had requested a walk in shower. Seamus phoned me the night before we arrived to explain all the accommodation he had. He advised an apartment which was perfect - accessible bathroom facilities and spacious apartment with wonderful views. The heating had been put on and the apartment was lovely and warm. Seamus visited us shortly after we arrived and explained about the heating, bins etc. The information pack was brilliant - clear information with maps of the local area. The wheaten bread, butter, jam, milk, tea, coffee and sugar left for us was great - the bread was delicious. The apartment was quiet and we used the picnic table outside. Great fridge, laundry facilities and equipped kitchen. Seamus called before we left to chat about our stay - everything was perfect and we’ve spread the word of the wonderful accommodation and host. Highly recommended

IrelandCould not fault a thing. Seamus has thought of every thing down to the fine detail.
Excellent from start to finish. Seamus couldn’t be more informative or attentive to any needs or didn’t leave any question unanswered. Little touches upon arrival, home made bread milk in the fridge for a cup of tea after a long drive. Accommodation was excellent clean spacious and great location. House had anything you could possibly think off. Couldn’t fault a thing.

So many nice little touches such as fresh wheaten on arrival. Beds where so comfortable and clean and the location was absolutely stunning. Everything was a short drive or walk away.
