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.).

FinlandFor hikers on the via Podiensis, the climb to La Fontaine at the end of the day was the only disappointment we had.
This was a very pleasant place to stay. We had a spacious room with a little balcony where we had our picnic dinner with a nice view of the castle ruins. The swimming pool provided real refreshment after a long day of walking. Very peaceful neighbourhood.

If you could rate a small B&B. 5 Star this would be it. Room and bathroom spotless, cooling fan in room kept the room very comfortable and the views and ground were meant for relaxation. A short walk to town but the host will drive you there and back or you can Uber. The included breakfast is a meal to dream of. Everything fresh from garden and local farm.

AustraliaThe location is both great and not-so-great. Great because it is set high on the hill, just below the chateau, overlooking the town. Not-so-great because it WOULD be a huge climb up for hikers/pilgrims - BUT, even this is addressed by Sylvie, who generously collected us by car from the centre of town when we arrived and later took us back to the centre (where we had a fabulous meal) and picked us up again after dinner.
Sylvie was exceptionally welcoming. Our spacious room had a great view down to the town/city and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was generous and delicious - coffee, toast, home made jams, cake and pudding, terrine, saucisse, fresh fruit, yoghurt etc.

United StatesUnfortunately, neither of us was particularly adept at speaking one another's language but all worked out well.
We stayed at this place while walking the Le Puy Camino. The owner offered to pick us up in town when we reached Espalion but we decided to walk there - a definite mistake. The owner was kind enough to drive us to a restaurant in town and pick us up when we went out to eat for dinner. The hot tub after a long day's walk was fabulous. The washing machine in the room was a wonderful surprise. The room itself was spacious, the hosts incredibly gracious, and the breakfast wonderful.
