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.).

Rarely do I give somewhere full marks on every front - but this hotel deserved it. And the icing on the cake was it had a few free car park spots.

New ZealandBooking.com didn’t advertise facilities as is. I made the choice for a particular room, the selling point was that it came with a fireplace. I was disappointed that a fireplace wasn’t an option.
The location is convenient, the staff were extra accommodating and helpful.

New ZealandOnly a minor point - couldn’t seem to get the heater on and it was a cool night.
It was elegance and finesse combined … a charming villa. The owners were exceptional hosts and the extra touches were a delight.

United StatesThere is no hot option for breakfast. There is plenty of fruit, bread, pastries, cold cuts, and cheese but no eggs, bacon, or sausage.
The location of the villa is fantastic -- right across the street from one of the arts centers and one block down from the large art museum. The botanic garden was a block away. There were good restaurants, shops and cafes right near the villa, and then a bunch of restaurants across the bridge near the River Market and along Regents Street. The couple running the villa were very friendly and helpful.

AustraliaI wish I had booked for 2 - 3 days, 1 night was nowhere near enough to enjoy the property and location.
Breakfast was great and the our host Jackie was friendly and helpful. Excellent customer service and it felt like we were staying with friends. Thanks Steve and Jackie, Great Job. We really hope to be back and will encourage our friends and family to come and stay with you when in Christchurch.. Oh, Did I mention the amazing location of this property, in walking distance to all inner city locations and restaurants.

New ZealandIt would have been good to know more about what is required re your cell with the app so that movies were could be watched. I had no data that I could delete so was unable to install. This is the first time in my experience of going to a hotel where it is left for the guest to be responsible for organising their phone in order to watch movies on the internet. I consider this to be an inconvient hassle.
Great location. The breakfast provided was excellent due to there being various, quality options to select from. The hosts were friendly and accommodating without being intrusive.
