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.).

The property was clean and spacious and was very quiet. It is a little walk (25/30 mins) to the lake and main town, but it’s a lovely straight walk. The owners were lovely and so attentive.

United KingdomLiterally the only thing I would change would have been a bath bomb or similar so we could have had a bubble bath in the big bath, but it's on us for not planning ahead, really.
The host was very friendly and accommodating, the breakfast was well cooked and the recommendations for local travel were perfect. The room was very clean, well presented and nicely decorated. We appreciated the random selection of CDs available and relaxing in front of the big windows with rain in the background and Jazz playing was beautiful.

Ideal location set in beautiful garden. On site parking. Very helpful, informative host warmly welcoming us into her gorgeous home. Had the downstairs suite with direct access onto the garden. It had its own comfy lounge, an adjoining but separate large double bedroom with modern en suite. Breakfasts offered a wide choice of freshly prepared meals…all were excellent. I’d rate this venue as gold star 10/10. We had a perfect short break here. We will return.

Lovely house to stay at when I’m Windermere! The owner couldn’t be nicer or more helpful! Breakfast brought into the room for you every morning with a wide selection on offer! Extremely accommodating. The bath and walk in shower are amazing and is just what is needed after a long day walking! I definitely recommend staying here and if I’m Windermere again will be staying here!

United StatesCan't think of one thing.
Elena and Roger's BnB is lovely. The room was spacious, comfortable and thoughtfully appointed and attractively decorated. It was absolutely quiet and wonderful to have a view (and patio) onto the beauty of their backyard gardens. They are attentive hosts, concerned about our comfort and engaged in helping us enjoy our time in Windermere. We very much enjoyed having delicious homemade breakfast in the dining room. The location is ideal as it is close to the train station, the village and walking trails. We look forward to returning!

Everything was wonderful. We especially loved the gardens in full bloom with azaleas, rhododendrons, and plants I did not know! The hosts were perfect—interesting, engaging, helpful, but not at all intrusive. Food choices and food preparation were outstanding. The size of our rooms was also outstanding.
