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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

AustraliaIf you’re traveling by car, you’ll likely need to park in the car park under the covered marketplace. It’s not cheap, but it might be possible to pre-book and save some money (we didn’t do this, but in retrospect should have looked into it).
The location of Chambres d’hôtes La Tour Sainte-Cécile is fantastic, and the building is unique and offers a special experience. The hosts were lovely, the rooms beautifully appointed, and the breakfast was delightful! There is a small elevator to access the apartment, however be prepared that you will still need to be able to navigate a small number of steps to get into the property, and if you have a tower room (worth it!) there are many steps in a narrow spiral staircase to get to the room - leave the large suitcase behind!!

Such a delightful bed and breakfast 2 blocks from the Albi Cathedral. The interior design was gorgeous, and we had a delightful talk with our host, Maely. It was a very comfortable stay. Maely suggested a restaurant for us, then she immediately made us reservations, and the restaurant was such a treat.

United States2 rooms are up a very small medieval staircase. It is impossible to get a large suitcase up these stairs. The view from the top room is incredible, however, yet the access is not suitable for anyone with a disability or who has difficulty with steep stairs. If this is an issue for you - ask for a room on the main floor.
Very cool and very old spot with a perfection location. Breakfast was good and host was helpful. Lovely decorations.

CanadaSee above.
This is is 16th building, beautifully furnished, in a great location. The tower room which has a spectacular view of Albi is reached by a very narrow circular stone staircase with only a rope to hold onto. We tried the stairs but felt it was not suitable for two seniors, so we changed to a beautiful room on the 2nd floor. However, there is not a mirror with enough light to put on make up. We needed to email the host to find out how to “ring the doorbell” when we arrived. We are from Canada and had not seen this system. The breakfast was lovely - delicious and elegant.

CanadaPerhaps because we are not European, we missed a little bit more protein at breakfast.
The rooms were absolutely beautiful and carefully curated to maintain the decor of the time. The bed was very comfortable (not a bed of the time period!) and we slept very well.

United StatesEVERYTHING. Our host was amazing, kind, and we left feeling like friends. We want to visit Albi again just to stay in her beautiful mansion and enjoy breakfast with her again. The room is spacious, incredibly clean, with gorgeous rooftop views of Albi. We felt like royalty! This is the stay and vacation I will be talking about the rest of my life. I’m serious. If you are looking to stay in Albi, this is the best possible option in all of France. ❤️🇫🇷

United StatesWow! We were just blown away from the moment we arrived. We had a big SUV and had trouble parking, Maely came down to meet us, helped unload our luggage, and road with us to find parking. She is an amazing host and her English is excellent. The tower room was incredible, and really put you back several hundred years, with a winding staircase and panoramic views from our windows. While the history of the building has been preserved, the furniture was beautiful and well appointed. The bathroom was modern. When the church bells rang the next morning. we felt we were living in a fairy tale. A delicious breakfast was served with fine china, just perfect. Maely is a gracious host and it is obvious that she enjoys what she is doing. We only spent one night but would love to have stayed longer.
