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 views were a thrilling surprise. Sunset over the mountains in the distance was spectacular. The attention to small details from our host was wonderful. Amazing setting, rooms lovely and well thought out. Host Gareth was charming and such an amazing chef. He couldn’t do enough for us. Afternoon tea with homemade cakes and drinks and canapés laid on. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was top class too. Gareth and his staff were kind and we will definitely be back

South AfricaNothing at all.. Everything was just perfect, from the luxury of the guest suite to the communal areas and gardens/pool setting. There is simply nothing to criticise at all.
Everything was beyond Exceptional!! We left Vineyard Views guesthouse with the mindset of having enjoyed a Six Star establishment. Gareth went above & beyond with everything that he did for us during our stay. Besides the breathtakingly beautiful setting and gardens, the breakfasts, afternoon tea & cake and canapes at dusk were simply outstanding... We truly felt like we were in a Masterchef kitchen based on the standard of each and every meal placed in front of us. This in one gem that has to be experienced to be appreciated. Everywhere else we stayed paled in comparison.

BelgiumNOTHING! Our stay was too short.
It cannot get any better than this, we absolutely LOVED everything! From the moment you arrive, you are spoiled. The guest house is stunning with interesting art and decor. The garden and the views are out of this world. There is so much attention to detail and it is clear that everything offered is done with passion. The quality of the coffee and the home-baked cake was some of the best we ever had. We were also most surprised by the delicious canapes served at 17h00, which we enjoyed with a gin & tonic. Life cannot get any better than this :) The bedroom was dreamy and super comfortable. Once again everything supplied was of the best quality and one could not help but feel spoiled. We also enjoyed the homemade fudge surprise waiting in the fridge :) We will definitely return every time we come back to South Africa!

Good, quiet location, close enough to walk into the village, but just outside enough to feel like a true country house. Gareth and Grant were very welcoming and we loved all of the little touches like homemade everything (bread, canapés, cake, dinner on request), beautiful bath products, etc!
