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.).

New ZealandBed was too hard. Finding how to access the unit wasn’t so easy as no one on site. Found a phone number to ring on side entrance of old hotel and was then sent a txt with code to unlock key pad.
Nice new cabin unit. Great pressure in the shower. Convenient for our one night stay.

New ZealandExceptional rooms. Comfortable bed. Great comms from friendly hosts. Wairoa has really suffered following the weather events of 2023, The Ferry Hotel is a shining example of resilience and thinking outside the box. The result is some of the most impressive (and surprising) accommodation I have stayed at. The standalone units are beautiful, spacious and have all the modern conveniences.

New ZealandIf I was being really picky as the place was immaculate there was no hair dryer or place to hang clothes. There was only one comfy chair so we watched TV on the bed. WiFi kept cutting out so we gave up watching TV as it kept buffering.
It was brand new. It felt like we were the first to use it. We didn’t meet the staff. All conversation was remote via text. Tests were very friendly and responded were immediate

New ZealandThe bed was a bit uncomfortable for my personal preference. Had trouble adjusting the tv volume in the evening to turn it down. The proximity of the 3 cabins are close to each other and the cars are parked on the same side as the bed. So if your neighbour is an early riser/late traveller - just know that the external noise can seem loud.
The studio cabin was very clean and access to the key was simple. We were heading to Lake Waikaremoana the next morning for a waka ama event, so an overnight stay in Wairoa was a great way to break up the trip. We had a waka attached to the roof of our ute, but parking outside the cabin was roomy and easy to move in and out from.
