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.).

South AfricaI made arrangements with Marelize prior to our arrival to do something special (table décor and non alcoholic bubbles) for breakfast, but to my disappointment we arrived on Sunday morning with nothing done. Not even a mention to my fiancé to say congratulations ... not a biggie, but it was the reason for the weekend away and I corresponded with them to convey such. We stayed in the bridal suite, and the complementary bar fridge was stocked with 2 Castle beers, some cokes and water. Being the bridal suite, I would have thought a better balance would be 1 beer and a small bottle of wine. The toilet paper holder fell from the wall in the bathroom, it needs some maintenance, and some of the light fittings in the ceiling dangle loosely.
A very welcome from the gate keeper and porter. Both made us feel valued and at home. Welcome drinks were delivered promptly, the porter made dinner arrangements for us. The room was beautifully decorated, the view spectacular and dinner was sublime. The reception desk attendant was less welcoming, but that did not impact the great impression our initial hosts made. The waitress was friendly and professional, and we saw her again at our table for a breakfast feast the next morning. The complimentary items in the bar fridge was an added bonus, although neither of us are Castle beer drinkers.

A most beautiful and peaceful place to stay - we loved everything about it but probably the incredible views and gardens together with the lovely considerate staff made this such an unforgettable time. All staff were friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make our stay memorable. The receptionist in particular was incredibly helpful as on our last day my mobile would not charge, she tested it and found the cable faulty then managed to charge it for me. Our room and bathroom were so comfortable and spotlessly clean. The fresh proteas and fruit we found on arrival and the Nespresso coffee machine added to the sense of being welcome guests at a country house. We had a delicious breakfast each morning where we lingered on to enjoy the view from our table. After breakfast it was just a 5 min drive into the village and later a few hours spent relaxing on our inviting patio before enjoying a delicious dinner. It was with great reluctance that we drove away from La Petite Ferme and certainly hope to return for another luxury week end

The view at breakfast was wonderful, but the wood stoves in the dining room at dinner created a warm welcoming atmosphere too. The staff were very keen and friendly - they could tone it down just a touch. The front of house was good and very professional.
