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.).

AustraliaBed was very firm.
It’s location! A short 300m stroll through the local village to the market area via the back gate gave a great insight to life away from the cities. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. We can recommend the local Toddy Shop for a meal. 800 metres away, turn left at gate then right at junction.

United KingdomThe provision of a few sun beds round the pool would help
Breakfast was typical of the region,so to the western palate was a bit strange but we soon got to like it. It was followed by Marsala omlette which was great. The chef Amal was always on hand to make lemon sodas or fresh orange juice which he did frequently as it was so hot Vaikash the manager was very helpful , even to the extent of filming the route into the village so we wouldn’t get lost The Heritage hotel is set down a side street and as soon as we were through the gate we left the sounds of people and traffic behind us It is a bit remote but for us that was the attraction. The village was a ten minute walk and the lake shore was a short Tuk Tuk ride away All four members of the staff went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible The pool was well maintained and was a godsend in the hot weather We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will make a point of returning

United KingdomThe surrounding area of the swimming pool was poor. No chairs or shade and a rotten shed which needed some attention to enhance the rest of the resorts buildings. Shame about that. Also if you wanted an evening meal chef clocks off at 5pm.5
The manager arranged two trips for us. Both were excellent, especially the sunrise boat trip. The resort was good but the rooms were an unusual layout.

United KingdomThis place is in a lovely peaceful suburban/village setting with great pool, beautiful heritage style house and nice rooms with AC. We stayed with our kids and all loved it. The staff (particularly Vaisakh) were super helpful, staying late to help organise our meals, organising a lovely trip to Lilly ponds and sikarra trip. It is a much quieter area than allepy. Really reccomend.

IndiaWardrobes in rooms were neither adequate nor good. No adequate plug sockets for charging mobiles, laptops etc. Slightly overpriced in comparison to the facilities being offered. Neither personal interactions nor even telephonic enquiries by the host, which is expected of a home stay, esp when we stayed there 2 nights.
Staff and their behavior were exemplary. Pool was good. Food was tasty.

IndiaHotel location and outside environment- with the guidance of the owner it is easy to reach the location and it is quite a peaceful area located in the interior. It also has a beautiful well-maintained garden, with a car parking space. Room- Spacious and comfortable with all amenities. Staff- very warm and cordial, always ready to help. Food- simple and home-made, tasty as well. Payment- card system- all cards accepted. My mom and I went for a staycation to this heritage resort recently and had a great time- both staying and interacting with the guests and the staff. It felt like a home away from home. The owner was also very warm and humble. I recommend this place as a must-try!!!

SpainThis hotel is quite new and still has things to improve. The room we initially booked was not as good as it appeared on the photos. It was small, had almost no natural light, and was right next to the kitchen (separated by a closed door). We ended up paying extra to stay in another, much better room. The breakfast had Indian options only, they were tasty, but not abundant and the choice was limited.
The staff was very friendly and they always offer us a good experience. The host gave us a little tour of the property which has an interesting historical background.

IndiaThe property was absolutely fantastic - a perfect combination of quaint, comfortable, homely yet close to the backwaters. The property in itself was over a 100 years old, but has been renovated and maintained in amazing manner. I was able to visit some of the agricultural storage rooms, and it felt like it was built only a few days ago. The view in the morning from my room specifically was fantastic. A special call out to the the team was the most welcoming, friendly, accommodating and helpful. Not only did they extend their hospitality and friendship, but they went over and beyond to provide their support for arranging transportation, providing additional facilities. The breakfast was custom made to my liking and was delicious. I only wish I could have visited at a time with more pleasant weather and that I could have stayed longer.
