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.).

KenyaBreakfast was good, room was small but clean and comfortable. The air conditioning was great as kept the noise out. The staff were very nice and helpful. Having the sitting room and books to read and DVD's was a great idea and enjoyed it. The honesty bar was also nice. I really liked the fact that we could be independent without having to be hosted. Thank you.

South AfricaHonesty bar was non-existent. no water in the bedrooms A lot of small maintenance matters which need to be addressed e.g. towel hooks were loose and fell off, light bulbs that were blown Passage door was locked and whilst a locksmith was called on the following day, this passage is actually the fire escape route and therefore should never be locked. Guide in room is outdated.
location was excellent secure friendly staff overall feel was similar to that of the Lake District in the UK

United KingdomThe pool had lots of leaves in it. We were disappointed to find nowhere close by to have dinner so we finished up having salad in our room each evening.
The breakfast was fine although the service was pretty slow because one person was doing everything. The staff were all very friendly.

Hong KongEverything is perfect but may need to consider the noise from the traffic in the main road and school next door. No issue in the mountain suite inside - very comfy and quiet
The owner of the house and staff were very nice, friendly, patient and helpful and tried their best to solve the noise issue that I had in my original room which was facing the main road. You can enjoy the breakfast at the time that you want and the breakfast was very delicious and freshly prepared when you’re at the desk - you can have your stomach full and satisfied before you go out. Exceptionally clean room and environment - the staff doing the cleaning attention to every detail
