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.).

CanadaNothing to speak of, really. Bathroom is a little tight with the exposed beams and the pool could have been warmer!
Domaine de Givre is a simply lovely bed and breakfast in the rolling countryside just outside of Chinon proper. The apartments are in a 4-500 year old converted gatehouse/stable and the tasteful conversion to guest accommodations provides a wonderful juxtaposition between the old and the new. Our host, Ronan, provided a quite scrumptious fresh breakfast each morning, with delicious breads, fruit, cheese, ham and even a soft boiled egg! Two wonderful cats greeted us in the gardens each day, give them a scratch for us Ronan! I highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a quiet, luxury rural getaway in the Loire Valley.

The room was beautiful. The hosts were extremely friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was outstanding. We never made it to the pool but it was there to use and we would have but the weather the day we arrived was not so good. The town of Chiron was nearby to eat and drink, an easy couple of days can be spent here visiting the area. Would thoroughly recommend it.

United KingdomWe had a power outage in our room quite late on Saturday evening and initially it was a bit difficult to get help but we managed to find the breaker switch, so it was fine in the end. It might be worth letting future guests know where to find the breakers in case they have a similar problem.
Nice room with amazing historic features and good facilities. Very good breakfast. Charming hosts Vero & Ronan were very helpful. Bed was very comfortable and it was very quiet and peaceful at night, so we slept well.

An absolutely fantastic experience to stay in a medeival building. Ronan and his Madame were wonderful hosts serving a superb breakfast that she delivered to your door. Breads, croissants, fromages, meats, cereals, confiture, juices etc. etc. etc. A beautiful property that they have done extensive personal work upon, AND - It shows !!!

IrelandNothing. It was great.
Lovely cozy room restored and decorated in style. Easy access to Chinon and welcoming hosts Ronan & Vero. They’ve created a great little refuge with a lovely outdoor space for an apero and you can even go for a swim in their pool in summer. We loved it. Ronan was generous with his recommendations. We ate in L’oceanic in Chinon which was fabulous and went on to visit Chateaux de l’Isette which is open in summer only but we were lucky it was open for us! And the breakfast was out of this world. We will definitely come back if passing close by and recommend to anyone in the neighbourhood.

CanadaIf there's one thing I would recommend is a mosquito screen on the window, so that it can be safely opened at night.
We stayed in this charming place during our honeymoon and it was very nice! The room is in a converted medieval barn: it is very spacious, decorated with style and care, and features two separate sitting areas. The breakfast was more than ample - with plenty of options to choose from - one of the best we had in France. What makes the place really special is its owners - Vero and Ronan. To give only one example: Vero kindly did our laundry for us and didn't even charge for it! Overall, an unforgettable experience!

We were looking for a location outside of Chinon where we could relax and explore this part of the Loire Valley. We were not disappointed. Our hosts were lovely . The room is beautifully decorated with some private outdoor space. It was quite warm during our visit and the pool provided a nightly respite before dinner. And breakfast.... thank you so much for the abundance of fresh, local products. You're home is wonderful and warm.
