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.).

RussiaCabana is isolated from the main building by many steps, so for those who have heavy bags (like we had) it could be a challenge. But staff will definitely help.
We stayed in cabana and it was one of the best night during our trip. Perfect views, tasty food, good cocktails, sounds of river and nature. Moreover, house is in a quite good condition. Thank you!

South AfricaNaleem and his team are super friendly and helpful. Naleem is one of the most attentive and helpful hotel managers we have had the pleasure of meeting. Nothing was too much trouble for him to organize and he was ever willing to offer assistance when needed. We really enjoyed our long chats with Naleem. The resort itself is set in a stunning location and very luxurious. Meals are well prepared and delicious. Restaurant staff are very attentive. We really enjoyed our time here so much so that we have decided to return for a further 2 nights next week.

PolandBecause of the big crisis this year, they started systematic power outages all over the island. Our hotel did not yet have a powerful enough generator to cover the entire area, but the lights were always on in the restaurant during dinner. It was a little inconvenient, but we were informed that a new large generator had already been ordered. I'm sorry to hear about this situation on the island, I hope the government fixes it soon. It would have been nice to have some sort of insect protection in the big house.
We lived in a separate house at first. There are very beautiful steps leading up to it, all handmade, with flowers and lighting. The house is big, wooden, smelled like wood, and it was beautiful. The bathroom is clean and beautiful. You can see chipmunks and monkeys and beautiful birds from the balcony. Then we were in an air-conditioned room, and it was beautiful too, spacious, with a beautiful view out the window and with a balcony. The staff is very attentive and friendly. The pool was nice, but a little chilly for us.
