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.).

CanadaThat it is so far away from Canada
What’s not to like! This fabulous country house is perfect. The rooms are exquisitely appointed, spotless and luxurious. The landscaping is amazing with every view a sensory sensation. As for the view, well it is almost indescribable as it changes like a gorgeous painting every time you look up. Gary and Robert have perfectly situated the house to take advantage of this extraordinary view. In our mind though Gary and Robert are the piece de resistance of the entire experience. Warm, engaging intelligent and with a witty humorous way to turn a phase. We felt so welcome and so much at home in their company.

It was a wonderful stay! We got a very warm welcome and kind treatment during our stay. It’s more than accommodation but more like home and friends reunion. I was impressed by the beautifully designed house and the owner’s good taste in art. I wish I would revisit again. With my best wishes to Gary and Robert!

New ZealandThat we couldn’t stay longer!
A magnificent country home - luxurious and welcoming. We stayed in the kowhai bedroom which was a delight. A little library to relax in & a lounge room . We sat outside in the evening with a glass of wine mesmerised by the view - panoramic hills & paddocks & a pond with native plantings. A beautiful garden surrounds the house - we were kindly shown the large veg garden & we met the adorable puppies!

New ZealandLoved everything, as this was a surprise holiday for my partner. Both Gary and Robert went the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect for her . What started as what I thought was going to be a simple night in a bed and breakfast turned into the best holiday my partner and I have ever been on. breathtaking views, 5 star treatment, but by far the best part was making friends with Gary and Robert. Truly the best holiday ever. Thank you guys, and we can't wait to come back and see you two again.
