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.).

AustraliaRooms aren’t serviced daily, which is not unusual in a B&B, so I had to ask for clean cups and extra toilet paper.
Lovely view across the marina. Staff were very nice and helpful. Got done good local travel tips.

United KingdomLittle to criticise but weekend breakfast staying at 8.30am instead of 7.30 the rest of the week needed to be shown on the posters in the rooms and I the Hall. Otherwise a brilliant stay.
Stephen and Julie were wonderful hosts. Astala Lodge was perfectly situated near the harbour.

CanadaThat's tough. I honestly can't think of anything. The breakfast wasn't great but still good.
Everything! One nightI wanted a hot whiskey and the guy behind the bar went out to buy lemons and honey. That's the type of place it is. The room was large with a sitting area and a table. There was still room for yoga.

United KingdomI didn't find anything negative during our stay.
Comfortable and spotlessly clean, with a warm welcome from all the staff. Great price and the view of the harbour is beautiful. A lovely continental breakfast with ample to choose from. I would recommend it highly and we will certainly be returning.

United KingdomThe breakfast is continental, no cooked option which was absolutely fine for me but my partner would probably have preferred a cooked breakfast.
Perfect location with gorgeous sea view, free parking and very central to bars and restaurants. Julie was really lovely, friendly and welcoming. The whole guesthouse has been recently renovated and our room was really lovely with a big, comfy bed! Astala Lodge felt more like a small hotel rather than a guesthouse which was important to us.

United KingdomRoom was a bit small and as I had said on my first morning it to service my room that day, it wasn’t serviced for the whole of my 3 night stay. Maybe a misunderstanding.
The continental breakfast was as expected pastries, toast, cheeses and ham, pancakes etc plus fruit, cereal and yoghurt. What I liked most of all was great rriendliness of the people running the Astala. Couldn’t have been nicer.
