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 AfricaThis place is magical. From the beautiful, wooden interior with multiple windows in order to see the forest. The deck is breathtaking. You never get tired of it. The entire treehouse/chalet was extremely well equipped. Far surpassing our expectations. The bed is so comfy it makes sleep inevitable.The pub and game room are also great additions. The staff is wonderful! They go out of their way to make the experience memorable. All the extra touches, the towels being shaped like swans, a card to congratulate me and my fiance on our engagement, the lovely bath products and more. Thank you so much for an unforgettable stay!

Excellent location with amazing view. The suite was exceptionally private and we couldn't see any other neighbours or properties. Kitchen was well appointed for glamping (note no oven). The staff were exceptionally friendly. Nearby hike was rustic and let you explore some of the surrounding forest and rock pools.

SwitzerlandThe biggest challenge for my wife were the spiders. Although she is afraid of them, she „survived“ and could enjoy at least the days. We saw three of the big ones just outside our room and bathroom. As they are harmless, we could easily remove them.
Exceptional accomodation within the trees of the forest. We had the Philosopher Perch with open kitchen and two separate rooms. Very quiet and remote. The kitchen, rooms and bathroom were modern and had everything you need. We did the small hike down to Karatara river and enjoyed a swim in the rock pools.

South AfricaThere was some mold on the inside of the tent. The wifi is spotty and often drops and disconnects. The charcoal and firelighters are exceptionally expensive when purchased on-site.
The view from the treetop is stunning and you feel truly enveloped in nature. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. One can truly enjoy a sense of privacy.
