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 KingdomNothing, everything was great!
Great stay in a lovely traditional yurt located in a beautiful garden just on the outskirts of Karakol. The owner and his lovely family were super friendly and so helpful and supportive with everything, they gave us tips and suggestions where to eat and what to do in Karakol. The owner's wife prepared delicious breakfast every morning that we enjoyed having in their beautiful conservatory. The Yurt itself was very clean and comfortable and had plenty of power sockets. The toilets and showers were modern and clean. The owners spoke good English, which we found very helpful. Was one of our favourite stays in Kyrgyzstan and couldn't recommend this gem more highly!

Hong KongGreat stay and nice sleeping in a ‘glamping’ yurt with super nice facilities. What really made it an awesome stay was the host and his family. He helped us plan our onwards travel and spent a lot of time with us in the evening helping us design our trip for the coming days (we were roadtripping in a rented car and wanted to camp in the mountains).

United KingdomThe Yurt camp was lovely, clean and comfortable and very friendly family staff. The Yurts themselves are clean and cosy, cool in the heat of the day and warm enough at night with plenty of power sockets. There is good wifi and good breakfast provided. Showers with hot water and proper flushing loos. When trying to find it, don’t get put off by the backstreets, it is exactly where maps.me and GoogleMaps say it is. The owner and his family were so helpful, giving us tips for places to eat in town and helping us organise kayaking and putting us in touch with a brilliant company for a trek to Ala Kul (a very hard trek but unmissable if you are there). He also helped us plan our drive from Karakol to Osh, through the mountains and via Son Kul, putting us in touch with guesthouse owners in the towns we planned to stay in. Couldn’t recommend more highly!

DenmarkTynch and his family were extremely friendly and made you feel like a family member. They helped with everything you needed, calling taxis whenever you needed ( 1 euro no matter where you go), they took time to explain everything about the mountains and areas without trying to sell anything, among the honest people you would ever meet. They even cleaned all my clothes when down from the mountains at a very small rate. The Yurts were so impressive and with lots of space.

United StatesWe loved everything about this place!
What an amazing place to stay! I was travelling with 4 friends as we were passing through Karakol on our way to trek in the mountains for a week, we stayed here for 2 nights and really wished we had longer to spend at this beautiful hostel. All 5 of us stayed in one of the yurts and it was perfect: beautiful colors and design, just the right temperature, comfy beds, plenty of space, outlets for charging our electronics. There is a BEAUTIFUL garden that the yurts are in the middle of, it is really this peaceful sanctuary just on the outskirts of Karakol. The bathrooms and showers were clean, there was a great common area to hang out in, and a lovely breakfast room. The hosts are amazing and so helpful! Tynch and his family gave us some great tips for in Karakol as well as for our hike and they helped us with so many things like booking taxis to our next destination. The breakfast each morning is delicious! Delicious fruits, breads, meats, eggs, and even an amazing cake each morning. Like I said our only regret was that we didn't have longer here, you could easily stay for a week and just enjoy the beautiful surroundings and relaxing atmosphere. We will absolutely stay here again when we return to Karakol and would recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

NetherlandsThe moment I stepped into the garden I immediately felt at peace. The beautiful flowers and cute yurts and other facilities made me feel like coming home. I wish I stayed longer. It is a place from where you can travel in the area but also a place you can take some time to yourself. The family who owns it is also amazing. The owner is really nice and helped me when my flipflops broke and also organized a nice restaurant to go to and gave tips and tricks on what to visit. His mother also gave me great advice on where to travel to and his wife made a lovely breakfast in the morning. I loved everything about this stay. Oh and it was also very clean which I find important.
