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.).

Host was super kind and the breakfast was fantastic! Too bad we had a very rainy day and couldn't appreciate much o walks but room was comfy and cosy. Good stay and might return.

AustraliaThe town is lovely but very quiet during the day so not a lot to see, although there are a couple of restaurants that open for lunch only (with good reviews) that I didn't get to try because I left to explore the surrounding area. Unfortunately there was nowhere in town to have dinner so driving was required at night to find a meal. Although there was the option to order delivery from a great pizzeria in the next town if you're stuck. I believe the property's restaurant will be re-opening in January 2024, which should be brilliant - the chef is amazing, so that will definitely be a huge bonus when it happens and I would love to re-visit to experience that.
The breakfast (Italian or International) was one of the best I had during my 3 weeks in Italy with several choices to make, and great espresso. For sustainability reasons they do not offer a buffet to avoid waste, which is a great initiative. Breakfast was served in a grand room with sky high ceilings which transformed you back in time. The property manager Dana is such a delight, so warm and friendly, and readily available if anything is needed. The room was spacious and well equipped with a view into the internal courtyard area. The bathroom was lovely and bright with an elevated view over the town. Car parking was right next to the property in a private piece of land only available to guests.

NetherlandsNothing to do with the hotel, but there were somw tiny mosquitos and sitting outside to eat.... we were not the only ones eating, so when going here in September take some anti mosquito candles with you when you want to sit outside. Inside was fine, also a net in front of the windows so you could open them.
For us we chose this location as a starting point to travel (by car) to Genoa, Turino, Pavia and some other places the area. Genoa was about 1hr 20min drive and so was Turino. It was a spacious appartement, when we arrived we were offered a choice, we could select the room we selected or another after having been given a tour of both rooms. There is a restaurant attached to the hotel, which is very convenient and it is also a very nice restaurant with good food and there is also another good restaurant around the corner. Its quiet, nice view to the surrounding area. Easy parking, private property in front of the hotel. Net for the windows to keep mosquitos out. We did not order the breakfast, we bought some in a nearby supermarket (walking distance) and we were surprised one morning by the staff with some sweet croissants.

IsraelWe had an absolutely wonderful stay at Palazzo Paleologi in Lu, Piedmont, Italy, which we booked through Booking.com. The property itself was breathtaking, a perfect blend of history and modern comfort. What truly made our stay exceptional was the remarkable service provided by the hostess, Dana. Dana's warm welcome and attentive assistance throughout our stay made us feel truly valued as a guest. Her impeccable English made communication effortless, and she was always there to help with recommendations and ensure every aspect of our visit was flawless. Her dedication to making our stay memorable is truly commendable. Booking.com made the entire process easy and convenient, from booking to check-in. The combination of a stunning property like Palazzo Paleologi and a hostess like Dana who goes above and beyond is a testament to the quality of experiences that can be found through Booking.com. We can't thank Dana and Booking.com enough for making our stay at Palazzo Paleologi an unforgettable experience. We wholeheartedly recommend both the property and the booking platform to anyone looking for a remarkable travel experience. Thank you again to Dana and Booking.com! Shklyar and Shapiro families
