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 AfricaShower curtains! Taking a shower in the bath was quite messy, and there's no hooks or railings to hang up wet towels. Also nowhere to put the soap bar at the sink at the toilet.
Lovely stay! Was very nice that wood was provided, as sitting at a fire at night was part of what made my experience so memorable. The warm water bags provided on the bed were also very thoughtful, as it can get cold in the tents. The unit was neat and clean, and all the staff were very helpful and friendly.

IndiaThe approach road, about 5 kms long is pitch dark at night. We were delayed due to change of plans and it was dark by the time we checked in. Those 5 kms, we sat with bated breath, had no idea whasoever of what was on either side of us - forest/sea/hills/wild animals/slums... there was absolutely zero light other than the car's headlights. Very scary experience, they could use some lighting along the way although there are enough signs for direction. On the plus side, it was so dark that the stars looked so big and close like we haven't seen since childhood. My son was in awe.
Beautiful well maintained property, lush green with views of sea right from your bed. It was cold and the staff was kind to give us heated water bags and extra heater for the room. There was a charming and cozy little fireplace next to the restaurant where we spent some time after dinner playing board games over wine. Breakfast wasn't a buffet so options were limited but whatever we had was very tasty (esp. tree hugger and their granola), ingredients in all foods were top notch and fresh. Unlike buffets, the breakfast and served fresh and hot. Only hotel during our trip where I found almond milk :)

South AfricaNo dislikes. I would just advise the owners to ensure the spa is fully kitted before treatments commence . The treatment room is not large enough for a couples massage. And the choice of building location won’t be tranquil at all situated at the entrance /exit when you have quad tours .. but once again the staff were friendly and happy to receive the feedback.
The staff are friendly. Amenities are great. Lovely breakfast. Will definitely return. View are stunning ❤️

United KingdomThis was the most expensive accommodation on our trip. Whilst it’s a great location the chalets , bathroom etc are adequate they are rather dated. We enjoyed our stay but the accommodation did not reflect the price.
It’s in a beautiful location overlooking the sea with virtually no other properties in sight.
