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.).

Gem of a place off the beaten track but within short distance by car of Matakana, Brick Bay, Snell beach and several nature parks and wineries. Furthermore the owners are very helpful and serve breakfast with ao fresh free range eggs and blueberries from their own gorgeous garden.

New ZealandDaniel and Angela were wonderful hosts, very friendly, and happy to accommodate any needs that may arise. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and especially the heated pool.. The location was only a short five minute drive to Warkworth. The property was very tranquil and a private oasis. Would love to go back again one day.

New ZealandWe obviously didn't read it properly as we didn't realise it was a room in their home and sharing their kitchen. They were so friendly though that that compensated for the misunderstanding on our part.
Beautiful location and such friendly hosts. Comfy beds and lovely bathroom facilities. Hop skip and a jump to Warkworth and beautiful Matakana. Thank you for having us. Next time we will visit you at your place of work for a wine tasting 😊

Very peaceful and relaxing. Spotless and comfortable. Daniel and Angela are wonderful hosts, so engaging and thoughtful. we had fun conversations late into the night and their knowledge of the area was a priceless guide. I wish we had more time there. Daniel is a talented chef and his meals were best we had in the 2.5 weeks we traveled through NZ.

Dangela Boutique Lodge is a unique, lovely, and unusual accommodation. The hosts, Daniel and Angela, went beyond all one could expect to make our two day visit not only enjoyable, but truly luxurious. We had one dinner (superb!) and one breakfast (perfect) at Dangela and would highly recommend choosing these options. The swimming pool was absolutely delightful. We enjoyed many interesting conversations with Daniel and Angela -- they are both knowledgeable and hospitable. Overall this was a wonderful way to start our NZ vacation.
