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 StatesThe location was wonderful with an amazing view. Parking was nearby, as was a metro stop that could take us right into the city center. The bed was the most comfortable I have found since traveling in Europe. We felt warm and welcomed with drinks and even some snacks. I would love to come back.

United KingdomSandra was a perfect host, she was next door so always available if we needed anything but honestly she provides everything you could possibly need! Shampoo, conditioner, razors, hair products, coffee pods, even wine! The bed is comfy with plenty of pillows, lots of towels were provided and there is an iron/ board and a small wardrobe. The kitchen is perfect to make breakfast, light lunches or a simple meal, but you are within an easy walking distance to restaurants and the tram stop into the center, we walked into Central Amsterdam on most days and the walk was lovely and mostly along the canal leading up to vondelpark... I'd never stayed in a boathouse before and it didn't feel at all as if we were on water, the boathouse itself is beautiful, very cosy, warm and perfect for two. The view of the lake is lovely, I'll miss waking up to it every morning. I honestly couldn't recommend the place enough and thank you to Sandra for being a wonderful host!

United KingdomNothing to dislike. Everything was thought out and host went above and beyond our expectations.
Cannot recommend this place enough. Beautiful patio terrace to wake up too every morning, with cute views of the canal and surrounding boat houses. Sandra the host made us feel so welcome and right at home. Honestly a hidden gem, our favourite thing was the bed, we did not want to get out of it. We cannot wait to return!!

United KingdomThe New Lake Boathouse is absolutely stunning. The interior and exterior are charming. The decoration inside is clean and modern but with a lot of personality. The facilities are great; there's a fridge and cooking facilities if you don't want to go out to eat. The floating balcony is a great feature - I enjoyed being able to sit outside in the sun watching the boats and ducks go by. The location is slightly outside of the city centre, but the nearest tram stop is just a 15 minute walk away and the walk itself features a lot of beautiful scenery. The local area around the boathouse is quiet and safe, so if you're looking to get away from the drunken tourists in the city centre then this is definitely for you. The host is very a very friendly, helpful and overall lovely woman. She gave us some complimentary snacks, beers and even a bottle of wine for our stay! I'd definitely recommend this boathouse if you're fed up of staying in hotels that all look the same and you want a change of scenery for once.

United KingdomBefore I booked our flights we requested a late checkout (4pm) which was approved by the host in February. If it hadnt been apporived i wouldnt have booked later, more expensive flights. I then booked a later flight of 6.35 pm knowing we had the accomodation for the day, our luggage was safe and we could head into the city centre knowing we could eat and freshen up after. I have coeliac disease and had bought food from the supermarket that I had planned to eat before heading to the airport. The night before we were due to leave I received a message asking what time we were checking out in the morning so I replied immediately querying the late checkout. Didn't hear anything until 8.30 am the next day telling me we had to be out by 11 as she needed to clean for the next guests arrival. I shared screen shots of our message exchange and confirmation of late checkout and was just told we had to leave. She did offer to keep our bags but we had to throw all the food away and spend additional money on eating out and on a taxi to the airport. Very dissapointing, if you book here and request a late checkout make sure you confirm.
Beautiful accomodation, exactly as described.

United KingdomWhat didn't we like, well actually not a lot, although being British would of liked a toaster, but it didn't matter really.
Such a quaint boathouse which is attached to the owners property so if you need anything you only need to pop next door. Sandra is a super friendly and helpful host. The property has everything required for a perfect stay and the Queen bed was very comfy. The boathouse is set in a suburban area so you are away from all the hassle and bustle of Amsterdam city, you can use the owners bicycles to get around, but we choose to use the fantastic tram, bus and train system. Getting a 3 day ticket saves money and you get to see more.

It's close to airport but also close to city. We can't wait to come back! It was everything we wanted and more!
