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.).

Everything was fabulous! Majella the host was outstanding, extremely helpful, friendly and kind. The generous welcome pack was so helpful to have and was really appreciated. The house was beautiful it had everything a person could need and more. We loved island life. The perfect place for time out. The views were breathtaking. The Bank pub was great to have so close and such a lovey friendly couple running it. We enjoyed everything about the house, island and the people. The ferry across to Bantry for dinner and drinks was great too. This really deserves a 10.

IrelandEverything was perfect
Eileen's House was really well equipped and comfortable and spotless. We were welcomed at the pier by Majella who had organised transfer to the house. The welcome pack and consideration in relation to parking was so appreciated. We spent a lot of time outside enjoying the scenery surrounding the house and it's Exceptional. Eileen's House is a gem. So good we stayed an extra night!

We enjoyed staying at “Eileen’s House”. The house is very clean and equipped with all the necessities. It’s situated in a beautiful island. There was a passenger ferry which runs several times a day and it’s always on time. It was a novel experience staying at Whiddy island. We loved the peaceful and stunning atmosphere. Majella is a wonderful host, so kind and caring. The people we met there were so friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back to Eileen’s House.

IrelandI loved everything so no complaints The kids loved how safe it was. The weather could have been better but didn't stop us from going fir walks around the islsnd. The only thing we didn't like was I only booked for 5 days. Didn't want to go home.
The house was very comfortable and warm and nice big rooms. Majella was very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us and always had a space left for us when we came back from day out. Tim took us to and from the property which was great especially when we arrived with all our stuff. Best little house and the kids loved it and didn't want to leave. Ferry came and left on time. Nice fire that we were able to light daily. Great walks and got wet doing it but didn't mind.
