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 StatesOur room was literally a few meters above the sea, and while it offered exceptional views, the balcony doors did very little to reduce the noise from waves crashing onto the rocky beach below. We did not sleep very well.
Our hosts were exceptional. The room was ready as promised, someone was at the door to welcome us, and when we left the next morning, not only did they arrange a taxi for us ( which was on time and very efficient) she walked us to meet the taxi and ensure the driver understood us.

AustraliaThis part of Scilla is characterful and totally tranquil. While the sound of the lapping water and movement of the local fishermen below the apartment and our little balcony made it totally perfect for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Despite a language barrier, Pia looked after us very well and was always around for help or questions. So glad she organised the boat trip for us.

United Stateslovely, small water front room. the room is within walking distance of many oceanfront restaurants and shops. it’s important to include your anticipated time of arrival when making your reservation. the apt is in a ZTL zone, so parking (free) is in the harbor and then a short cobblestone walk to the apt. breakfast was lovely and included warm croissants and homemade jam.

AustraliaThis is a bucket list, a must-do place to stay that will provide lifelong memories. It is literally almost under the iconic castle and contains an amazing view from the balcony of the bedroom. The owners/hosts are extremely helpful and friendly and can't do enough to make the stay enjoyable. Pia is very knowledgeable about the local history and always helpful to provide information about where to visit to make the stay more memorable. I can not recommend this place enough. Parking is readily available. The cafe/Restaurant is within walking distance. If you are lucky enough to stay during the summer period, you can eat in their Restaurant which is set up over the water, and serve fish caught the same day.
