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.).

GermanyThere’s another Avon Garden in Lilongwe and first we went to the wrong one…
The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming and helping! They speak good English. Both of me and my friend are vegetarians and they also did a vegetarian breakfast for us.

South AfricaThe road to get here is not suitable for a small car. There are alternate routes with better roads so ensure your Map settings are not on shortest route. The pin dropped takes you to a parrallell road so we had to figure that out. Water from shower was brown. Had to run it for a long while to clear. Bread was stale for breakfast.
Real friendly and welcoming staff. Escorted me to the market to get dinner.

NetherlandsThe thing that really bugged us was the host. I am not talking about Moses, he is very kind. It’s the boss that is not helpful as she is simply not responding to questions. I asked where the apartment were since there are several with the same name on Google maps. No response. I asked where we could eat some food. No response. She does respond when it comes to money. She asked more than we should be paying. Which ofcourse we did not. On the phone she was quite nice but over text she is very rude and unhelpful. Also about the accommodation, the location is bad. It’s not a safe part of town, no shops or restaurants nearby. So getting something to eat for dinner without taking a taxi is impossible. The showers are cold. And someone knocked on our door at 06:30 to give us breakfast, it’s ridiculous. The breakfast was two slices of dry bread and one egg. Also very disappointing. Then half an hour later (at 07;00 in the morning!) they knock again to ask for payment. It is really really rude and ridiculous.
It’s a clean and comfortable room. The compound feels safe.
