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.).

Lovely little cottage with everything you need. This was our second stay in this cottage as we loved it so much last time. Great views over Holmfirth town and a short walk to get there.

United KingdomParking is not for the faint hearted, but there are plenty of carparks in Holmfirth a stones throw away.
We booked last minute for New Year's Day and what a find. Perfectly located, great size and all the facilities you need for an overnight stay. It's tastefully decorated and comfortable and cosy, unfortunately we didn't have great weather but if we did the outside area is a beautiful view of Holmfirth and beyond.

United KingdomIt wasn't a problem for us but some people may have found the access, a lot of steep steps a challenge. Might be a good idea to make it clear in your blurb.
A fabulous place to stay, quirky, surprisingly spacious, well equipped and cosy.

United KingdomThe property is accessed down some old stone steps which are of varying height and depth, and we were advised to take care before we arrived. However, when we arrived it was dark and the first one or two steps were not lit so it was hard to see the way. Security lights came on when you started down. Luckily I had a pocket torch so I could see my way. The keysafe dials were also not well lit.
This is a lovely little cottage, very well equiped and comfortable. It was spotlessly clean, in fact eveything looks new including lovely thick carpets. Mandy was very helpful and instructions on how to get in, where to park etc. were very clear. The location is ideal for visiting Holmfirth being only a few minutes (steep!) walk from the centre.

United KingdomThe first night light coming down the steps in the dark wasn't working but I'm sure that can be fixed easily enough and we did have a torch on our mobile phone to assist.
Very comfortable and clean with everything you might need for a stay. The extras such as milk on arrival and toiletries in case you've forgotten were a lovely touch. Parking was available on the lane and the town centre was a few minutes walk down.
