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.).

Cottage was immaculate, everything you need for a cosy stay. Extras included reclining sofas, high quality towels, really warm. Location is excellent for Bamburgh - We had looked at staying in Bamburgh but was so expensive, this was very good value and only a few minutes drive

United KingdomSee above.
The cottage was wonderful. Unfortunately we will not use Booking.com again where host and stay are involved. The reason for this is the demand for a £250 damage deposit is completely out of order...I paid a £25 waiver as reports of people having problems getting the deposits returned was worrying. There was a subtle suggestion of us losing our holiday Booking if this was not paid. I find this completely unacceptable as this was only made clear after you made and paid for the holiday Booking. Once again, we will not use you again where Host and Stay is involved. S Grimshaw

United KingdomThis looks to be converted farm buildings. As a consequence they were situated out in the countryside, only accessible by narrow roads. It was also probably the reason for the poor wifi. When booking this property had to fill out an online Host & Stay Registration Form - not something I've had to do for Booking.com properties. Also in addition to payment, they required a refundable £250 deposit against damage or breakages, which they took at least two weeks before arrival. It was returned about a week after leaving the property. They charge a £10 admin fee for this.
This was a really comfortable apartment close to Bamburgh. Looks as though it has recently been refurbished with new fixtures and fittings. It was cosy and warm.

United KingdomThe cottage was generally excellent, but a few small issues mean its a 9 not a 10. Wifi was very weak, so it's not possible to use smart tv functions and even loading webpages was very slow / impossible. The cottage lacked much information or instructions for e.g. heating, access to laundry facilities, there was also no information about the many local attractions. There didn't seem to be any option for recycling so we ended up bringing ours home. There were a few light bulbs out (facing fireplace and in bathroom), no basics in the kitchen (salt, pepper etc.), flat batteries in kitchen scales and the bedding seemed cheap in comparison to everything else. It was fine for winter but if it had been warmer there is no private outdoor space and certainly not the 'garden' listed. Like other reviewers the Host & Stay communication was frustrating, their email system doesn't seem to work, they bombard you with automated emails but never reply to any so I had a few unnecessary phone calls. It's all rather impersonal collecting the key from the box and never meeting anyone associated with the property.
Beautiful little cottage. Very cosy for a winter break. It is nicely furnished and generally very well equipped and comfortable. The location is very quiet but an easy drive to local restaurants, and to Bamburgh and other local attractions.

United Kingdomjust need a bit more attention to cleaning - cobwebs everywhere and grubby wall near splash back in kitchen the whole booking process was rather stressful - I kept receiving emails asking me to complete damage waivers despite already having done so and then threats in emails that our booking would be cancelled this resulted in at least 3 phone calls which could have been avoided
