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 KingdomNo adverse comments whatsoever.
Chris, the owner, was exceptionally welcoming. We were greeted by him and informed firstly about the hotel, keys, access, parking etc. This was followed, at our request, with info on Blackpool, local restaurants, tram system and generally things to see or do or go to. Really useful and two of the restaurants he suggested were excellent. Many thanks Chris for a lovely stay.

Faultless. The hosts are EXTREMELY accommodating, nothing is too much trouble. Chris has superb knowledge of the history of Blackpool and the surrounding areas, which we found fascinating. The breakfast is sublime, the room spotless and the bed VERY comfortable. Excellent location for the numerous cafes and restaurants just up the road a little in Bispham, perfect for us who avoid the 'hubbub' of Blackpool town centre.

BelgiumThere was nothing we didn't like we loved our stay at the fossil tree.
On arrival We were greeted by Chris who was friendly and welcoming. Our room was a nice size and spotlessly clean. Loved the extra little touches that made it more enjoyable like the hot chocolate and biscuits in the room , streaming TV and the honesty bar. Breakfast was lovely and good value for money. We Loved the location of this hotel, its away from all the hustle and bustle which made for a nice peaceful night's sleep. However its within a nice walking distance to the centre of Blackpool or there's a tram stop just over the road. Would definitely recommend the fossil tree to friends and family and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Hotel was very clean and well presented, Checking in was simple and Chris the owner was very polite and made us feel welcome. The room was a good size with everything we needed, good WiFi reception and USB charging sockets in the room. The hotel is located away from the center of town so less busy and much quieter with a tram stop almost outside so visits to the center or surrounding areas was simple. Great full English breakfast to start the day and also an honesty bar serving drinks and snacks.
