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.).

The accommodation is in a monument building dated back to 1905. Inside is a house full of characters and history. The room we stayed at (room Sensational) had a good size. Due to the structure of the house, it has a sloped roof but this was clear in the pictures on bookings.com and it caused no inconvenience to us. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The accommodation has a fantastic location, we walked to the main street for dinner within 3-5 minutes, the streets were well lit at night and safe to walk to the restaurant and back. Everyday after the room is made, the staff put some sherry on the table for us to enjoy if we would like to. That is a lovely treat for us. We have searched many accommodations in the area and Centre-ville has the best price for the location and quality we get at the time of our search. Breakfast was lovely. They have the cold breakfast options to start with 3 types of bread and many types of cheese, 2 types of yoghurt with 5-6 fruit options and muesli, cornflake. Then we have the choice of hot breakfast eggs (prepare to your preference), sausage, mushroom, tomato, bacon and toasts. It was important to us to have a good breakfast before we start exploring the wine farms in the areas. Parking is very easy. Either next to the entrance of the accommodation if there is space or the accommodation also has a reserved parking spaces in a parking park for their guests just round the corner. The parking space is staffed during the day.

SwitzerlandLiterally only downside I could think of, was the small light at the AC that was on all night distrubing a bit even when the AC was turned off.
It is a very charming place with a great personality. Staff was very friendly and welcoming helping us out with times and tricks about the local winerys and restaurants. The breakfast (fresh english breakfast) in the morning was great! The Kind size bed was wonderfully comfortable!

SlovakiaWe had a room with a bathtub and low ceiling, however we were informed about this when we booked the room. It would be good to get a bit more of a personal touch from the owners (we got this in other guesthouses in South Africa where we stayed).
Perfect location in the beautiful town of Franschhoek - you can go for a walk without a car. Lovely historical building. Very good and nicely served breakfast. Good cleanliness, fresh towels.
