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 StatesI checked out at the desk. The young man took my key fabs and said we were good to go. There was no printed receipt or mention of an additional charge, so I assumed the amount we paid via Booking.com was accurate. Once we returned home, I saw Dalmahoy charged us an additional £40.75 ($51.13 USD). I have received no explanation what this charge was for. Frustrating.
it was beautiful property and was well kept. loved the raised beds of produce growing out our window. Friendly staff.

United KingdomThe night receptionist guy (with a beard) that met us on arrival was terrible. He was rude and told us all the incorrect important about food not being served and we could only eat that evening in expensive restaurant! Which was incorrect. The price of the room I expected top customer service from the start and it really ruined our stay.
Alan from concierge was brilliant. Really helpful and couldn’t do enough to help. This is why the score was higher

DenmarkThe hotel and room was great. The food didn’t quite live up to the surroundings and was over priced for what it was. Also the bar was closed when we arrived at 11:30pm even though a 1am closing was advertised. But Very pleasant and helpful staff. Overall, a great stay.

CanadaThe restaurant food was terrible, the reception staff was very unkind. We were sent a message that if our room was available before check in we could get our keys otherwise if we wanted to guarantee a room we had to pay. When we arrived a bit earlier they said our room was ready but we still couldn’t check in unless we paid extra. I do not like being told one thing and then something else is done. Also they were very unkind, and snobby. Not even acknowledging us when we walked it.
The grounds are stunning, the wildlife is beautiful and the building itself is lovely. The location is not too far from the city, only a quick and easy 25 minutes on the bus.
