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.).

FranceNot the fault of the property but access can be tricky at very busy times due to its location at a tourist destination.
Beautiful property in a lovely location. Everything we needed was provided. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Bed was very comfortable with good quality linen. There was parking on site. Breakfast was very good.

United KingdomSlightly hot after a sunny day, which is normal in an old house. Creaky bed and the sound really travels in this old place... Room quite small but not too cramped.
A beautiful old farmhouse in one of the most stunning places in the UK, sensitively and thoughtfully renovated. Full of character and a sense of what makes this place special, and full of well-chosen little touches. Luxurious without being fussy or trying too hard.

United KingdomWe hadn't realised how close the Farmhouse was to the main Eastbourne/ Brighton road. You could hear the traffic from the bedroom we had (Sea Breeze). It is also very close to the visitors centre and it's carpark which can get very busy with visitors. From description we had expected a more remote and quiet setting.
The staff were all very welcoming, friendly and responsive. That is so important. Despite the cafe closing at 5pm on second night we were offered a light supper which meant we could stay in and relax rather than drive to a pub somewhere. The bed was very comfortable and the room relaxing. The breakfast was amazing. We could walk out the Farmhouse to stroll on the footpath to Cuckmere Haven or get on the South Downs way. The garden was a lovely place to relax in when the weather permitted.

United KingdomThe only downside for us was the light levels at night, there are several outside lights which shine through the Venetian blinds, and the gaps around the door allow a lot of light from the Landing through all night. I prefer a dark room to sleep in, this may not be so important to others.
The location is absolutely gorgeous, right in the heart of the National Park. Our room; Seahorse, was beautifully decorated and the beds comfy, with lovely bedding. The bathroom has been refurbished and there’s a shower not a bath .

If you could bottle the feeling of absolute freedom and relaxation you get from staying here and sprinkle it on the world - we would be in utopia. We came with my dog. It was like being at home but being served like a queen. The location is heaven We will be back.

United KingdomSaltmarsh is a phenomenal property with excellent service. Although we were there for just a night, we were blown away by the personal touch of each and every person working at Saltmarsh. From remembering our dog’s name :) to not charging us for the alcohol because we left a day earlier, can’t say I have any complaints. I’m only waiting for summer to arrive so we can go back and enjoy a longer stay at the property.
