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.).

United KingdomThe staff where really helpful and proffesional. Unfortunately l trapped my finger in my car boot on arrival. The staff where really concerned and in no time they gave me a load of ice to help the bruising on my finger. It did the trick, it hardly bruised. My room was of a very high standard. The bath room was lovely, l decided to have a good soak in the lovely bath to relax. I will certainly head back when l am next in the area.

United KingdomThe Wi-Fi was very hit and miss. Be good to also be able to use the smart tv services and not just the free view channels. Also if they had info booklets about the hotel in the room would be good so you don’t have to ring reception to find out times of breakfast and spa etc
Beautiful property 💖 extremely comfortable beds.

Breakfast was good bed was comfortable shower room was good cleanliness excellent staff very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the spa wasn’t open and we were unaware of this booked. We had a choice of two hotels the other had a swimming pool and would have chosen this if we had realised the spa wasn’t open. We received several emails regarding our booking with no mention regarding the spa.

ZambiaRoom was quite small and incredibly hot (no air con or fan). Bar was expensive. Staff didn’t tell us about spa use when we checked in so we only knew we could make use of that facility through other guests. I also communicated directly with staff by email ahead of making my booking and was disappointed not to receive a comprehensive response.
Fabulous time spent relaxing in the spa. Spa facilities were excellent and staff very professional. Good food in the restaurant, beautiful grounds, clean and nicely decorated bedroom and ensuite bathroom.
