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.).

GermanyVery nice accommodation in the countryside. Very friendly and warmly owner, which is supporting you perfectly for sightseeing recommendations. Breakfast und dinner was fantastic and plenty. Lots of small dishes as well as local ingredients. Guesthouse is really clean and well equipped with all amenities you need. Small basic Onsen as well. Perfect place, if you like it a bit quiet and remote. There are a few buses to get around and some local sightseeing spots nearby. If you plan days with plenty of sightseeing, a car would be recommended. I've stayed in many accommodations in Japan during the last years: Pension Kaoru definitely has been one of the places, I mostly enjoyed!

AustraliaIt is slightly out of town and you need a bus to get there. It can be a challenge getting back on time after hiking to catch the last buses out of the main town.
It is set in a beautiful location up in the mountains. The hosts of this property are the most amazing people. They went above and beyond to help us out, especially when I got stuck after the train was cancelled late at night. They really were exceptional hosts and so friendly.

JapanThe toilet on our floor was broken so we had to use the one downstairs. During the night this was quite uncomfortable. Would've been nice to have an option for dinner, as the place has no restaurants around at all.
The place has an onsen, which was a very nice surprise. We were among the only 2 pairs of guests so it was very quiet. The room was equipped with everything we needed. Was grateful for being able to choose soft pillows over the usual hard ryokan ones. The staff was really lovely and helpful.

JapanI wish the toilets could have been separate for men and women.
Our Host was absolutely wonderful and kind. We have stayed in Pensions before in Japan, I have to mention that their level of service was much higher than the rest. My 1 year old fell sick on our second day and the host was so kind that he called the local hospital and drove us to the ER and even managed to get the pediatrician to come and see my lil one on a national holiday!! I will always be grateful to him. the location was as pictured in bang in the middle of mountains! Cozy cottage and a little field! Lush green and wonderful. we could have our breakfast on the deck in the mornings and Dinner was different all three nights featuring local delicacies. He even customized the food for us.
