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.).

SwitzerlandSome very minor improvements that would have made the trip absolutely perfect... - Make sure there are some dish cloths provided in the kitchen so we can dry dishes - Put a general waste bin in the kitchen area - Provide more than 3 toilet rolls per week - Provide olive oil in the kitchen - Provide more than 3 coffee pods for 1 week for 2 guests - The towels felt a little old and over-used, maybe time to buy new towels? These are all really small things that didn't impact our enjoyment of the stay, but some small ideas to make it even better!
Stunning property, beautiful views, spacious apartment, very nicely decorated, and very friendly helpful hosts.

PolandThe location is quite remote. So obviously without a car it's impossible to get there . The taxis are available during the day but not available at night so it was a problem for us to come back to the villa in the middle of the night ( coming back from the wedding ).I won't tell you how we got back as its ridiculous and quite unbelievable. Anyway. The villa and our stay there was great.
Beautiful villa ! I was in love with it to the point I wanted to buy it :P I mean I would love to buy it ;) :P I loved the spacious bright kitchen. Nicely equipped . We had everything we needed. Small private pool :) Fantastic weather :) Lovely host :)

ItalyFor us absolutely nothing! Can imagine that some people might fight difficult to get to the Villa with curvy ways, but I love it! For me that was definitely amazing! Felt in Sicily!
Outdoor area is amazing, very comfortable and relaxing with incredible calming view. Inside apartment is very spacious, clean and light! Perfect space to relax after busy Taormina. Host is very kind and helpful! 100% recommend to stay in the Villa!!!

SpainThe location is a bit distant, we were struggling to navigate using Google Maps. You need a car or using a taxi. There are barely any restaurant around who make delivery, however Livio can cook for you.
The room is big, we had a private pool just for ourselves. There is a nice kitchen in the room. Livio (the owner) is super responsive and helpful, he helped us with anything we asked for, including recommendation where to order pizza from, where to travel. He bought us some groceries we asked for, since the supermarket is a bit distant. He also made us a dinner in a short notice :) Top host !

United StatesNothing. Only thing to note is that you must either have your own car or use taxi/driver to get to town (15 minutes) because location is on a mountain and inaccessible by foot or bike. Property is an incredible value though so daily driving fees of 40- 70 euro to go to town once or twice are well worth it.
Exquisite decor and gardens. Private and peaceful. Hosts will go the extra mile to arrange anything to make your stay perfect.

Maltathe water fountain in the hot tub was out of order, and the tv in the top bedroom didn’t work, and my son cut his toe really badly on a sharp piece of tile on the edge of the hot tub, this definitely needs some attention! and at night the noise from the neighbourhood kids playing right outside.
The pools! the garden 👌 the amount of space, the games for the children, the top floor freestanding bath, the hanging chairs in the Mater bedroom, the view! 👌
