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.).

ItalyThe place is located on a small and beautiful rice terrace. The staff helps you with all your needs. They picked up us at the bus stop and took us back when we left. They organize good tours at honest prices. We enjoyed the terrace with the view and the cuisine. A very pleasant stay.

PhilippinesInternet is bit weak in the rooms. Maybe they can provide a drinking water dispenser (even if paid) so that we don't have to keep buying bottled water.
A basic but clean and beautiful room with a wonderful little balcony with a nice green mountain view (ask for a room with a view). Nice to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning and a glass of rice wine or beer in the evening. Very pleasant, we can stay there the whole day, if not for the other places to see in Banaue. Restaurant offers delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Staff is very warm and helpful, like family. We extended our stay for an additional three nights, very easy to arrange.

TaiwanI have stayed here for 6 nights. I have been taken good care of here. The location is just a little away from the town but gives you space to enjoy the tranquility. The room is simple and basic but is enough for basic needs. The view is not bery broad terraced rice but green and beautiful enough to fond peace here. The food is the best in this area! The staff are really nice, helpful and thoughtful. They provide various trips to suit different needs. They also respect my privacy and my time. They didn’t bother me when I just wanted to be alone. I really enjoyed my staying here. Thank Bogah Lodge!

CanadaI did not want to leave.
I really enjoyed the tranquility of the setting near the rice terraces and mountain water running. I like the family feel and that they are truly watching out for all your needs. The food prepared there was excellent. Denwil did a great job for setting up tours and drivers and took care of all your needs and his wife Isabelle is a wonderful person and cook.

United KingdomThe steps down to the lodge in the dark and rain were a death trap! All the tours were private so expensive. And although the town was not attractive, the lodge made the best of it. Not many places to eat at all nearby so good that the lodge was fine!
Located outside of town on other side of the river. Access to town was over the exciting/challenging hanging bridge, or the long way round on the road. Helpful to get tours arranged with a price structure that is set - quite expensive as they are all private. Super friendly staff, nice food. Hot water. Bed ok except high concrete pillows 😂. WiFi reasonable. Extra blankets if needed. One tour we got a whole huge jeepney to ourselves. Guilty that it was a waste of resources but travelling on the roof was fun.

Netherlandsprice of excursions, they put the excursion card under your nose just when you arrive and if you do the excursion you see at the entrance that you paid 5 times more compared with hiring a local guide. if you want to save money, take a tricycle to the excursion site and take a local guide, in our case the local guide was better than the one from the hostel
good food for good price, nice rooms and nice views

Amazing views. Very good wifi (many said wifi is very weak in the town, but it was perfect, in fact, faster than many places we visited in Phillipines). Quiet and relaxing lobby space. Great home cooked meals. And staff helped us out with setting up daily tours and also local recommendations around the town. We would be happy to stay here again!

SwitzerlandWifi was sometimes off. Smoking rules too strict. Prices of tours are on the very high side.
Room was clean. Hot water in the shower was good, water pressure could be better. Sink needs unclogging. Toilet paper provided. Bin in the room. A fan was in the room as well (though not necessary during this time of the year). Bed was comfy, I slept very well. Food is good and ok priced. The tour guides are well informed, I enjoyed it and learned a lot.

Our stay in bogah Lodge was amazing! The staff took very good care of us. I told them it was my birthday and Ariel and his friends took us for a super fun night out in Banaue. The next day Ariel took us to the Rice field as our super fun and kind guide and even took us to a shop where we could find a beautiful machete at the right price. The restaurant is very good and the view is gorgeous. The accommodation was clean and super confortable! Do not hesitate to book with them!

SloveniaIt is hard to find any.
We all liked the kind people working there, the cozy terrace, the food and very good guidance with a lot of experiences also for a family with 4 children. The guide June was really great, guiding us through hot springs to the terracces in Banaue and Batad where we were able to plant rice wit farmers and to produce some rice from dried harvested plants. I highly recommend this place and guide June.

FranceWe really appreciated our stay in this family-run guesthouse. The room is clean, the view from the balcony/restaurant is awesome. They came to pick us up when we arrived by van and they dropped us back when we left. Otherwise it is only a short walk from the "center" of Banaue (take the suspended bridge!). We felt really welcomed and taken care of, even if there were many guests at that time. Super easy to organize great tours around Banaue with them and save the hassle of doing it by yourself.
