Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomI loved how homely and welcoming it felt and was very clean. We loved how it’s right on the lake and enjoyed the swing chair to watch the swans. It was well equipped so we didn’t have to worry about needing anything.
The villa is located on a perfect spot on the lake. The veranda has lovely seating areas so you can sit and enjoy the view and it’s so peaceful. The villa was clean and very comfortable and homely for me and my family and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay and more. Victoria is very good at communicating and making sure we have all the info and access to facilities etc. I would highly recommend for a peaceful, comfortable break away.

United KingdomAuroras Dream was a dream! The lodge was very comfortable and spotlessly clean with a beautiful view from the porch over the water. It's obviously well-cared for and is like a home away from home. The park was quiet and the facilities (indoor and outdoor swimming pool, soft play) were brilliant for our young family.

United KingdomLimited parking access on arrival due to building works on neighbouring property. The proximity of neighbouring properties made noisy neighbours frustrating, particular workmen staying to the rear who disturbed us every morning at 6:30am
Beautifully finished accommodation with lovely touches. Great view of the pond. Brilliant WiFi speeds. All essentials included. Very comfortable beds and furniture.

United KingdomThe shower head kept falling off and hot water runs low easily. I hope this could be improved as it always runs cool after my hair wash.
Location is great with a fab view over the lake. the swing chair is a plus. We received very warm greetings from the host and the bed is very comfy. There is even an air bed for use if someone wants to have more space!

United Arab EmiratesWe booked this place for a family holiday. On arrival, we noticed the place was much smaller than we expected. The second bedroom is literally 0.5M by 1M. The bathrooms were VERY small. The shower was tiny and the hot water was irregular. The TV hardly worked as the reception was VERY poor. The lodge also had spiders all over it inside the living room and the bedrooms. My kids could not stay and we left after one night. We tried to get a refund from the host but she refused. I waisted good three days between the host and bookings.com team trying to get a refund but she still refused to offer any compensation. My argument was the presence of spider is mentioned in the welcome pack when we arrived to the lodge but it is never mentioned in the description of bookings.com. This should have been mentioned in the property description to avoid any misunderstanding. Guests may not be happy with spiders inside the property and this should have been clearly mentioned but it was not. I would never go there again. After requesting a refund from bookings.com they contacted the host again and she agreed to refund only one night. I would advise anyone not to go to this lodge. Small, very average facilities and has a lot of spiders.
The facilities in the park are OK, nothing special. It is very average.

IndiaEverything. It was next to a lake which had only algae formed on it. There were insects / spiders and mosquitos. No mosquito repellent patches. Spiders every where. Big webs formed in rooms / bathrooms / kitchen. No fan in this heat. It was so so hot we couldn’t sleep. And it was suffocating. Super bad experience.
Nothing.
