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.).

United KingdomThe hot water heater is a bit counter-intuitive, and (warm) water flow was weak. This is because the hot water is heated electrically at point of use, and not using an immersion tank. I was unable to find any way of controlling the temperature - all of the radiators had their controls at maximum - but the boiler turned off at some point in the evenning and it got cold during the night.
Great location, property was very clean and pristine. Was able to use the washer to clean up some stray chocolate spills on my daughter's clothes. I can see how a family staying here for a longer period would really be able to optimise their luggage and laundry costs, as I used to travel in Europe and finding a laundromat was always a fraught endeavour.

AustraliaIt’s a little breezy but Dover coast on the heights you have to expect this.
Great location looking over the coast to France. Quiet street and easy parking. All facilities as described. One of the best places we have stayed. Really nice shower and rooms. Plenty of space. Nicely furnished and very well kept. Messages answered. Friendly host.

United KingdomSteep climb to property up a road. House in a residential road, some of the surrounding buildings (possibly military) in the area were derelict.
Views to France and across the valley to the Castle. Quiet area though not rural, well placed to visit Dover, though you need a car to go into town. Property, spacious single story and very clean and well equipped.

United KingdomCouldn’t have been better.
From arrival we were very impressed. Curb appeal was excellent, clean and tidy. On opening the door, we could smell how clean it was, rather than just air fresheners that some hosts use. Great facilities, very comfortable and great views. It was very quiet, which is always good. We liked the decor too.

AustriaThe only thing was that there was quite a bit of dog muck in the garden, so we hardly used it.
Wonderful cottage with views of Dover Castle and the sea (and France). Great size for 2 adults and two children. Good kitchen, and bathroom and nice big living room. Clean and well kept. We also felt very well looked after. Thank you very much!

United KingdomEverything! It's an amazing place and we loved every minute. The apartment is beautiful, comfortable, warm and spotlessly clean with fantastic views. The owners are friendly, helpful and accommodating and the area is steeped in history. I literally cannot find fault with anything we experienced during our visit. It was great value for money and we genuinely feel our break wasn't long enough, so we're sure to book again.

United StatesThe house had no number on it to know which one it was. If it weren't for the photo on the website we wouldn't have identified it. Even then the neighbors saw our plight and came out to help us. There was no "welcome book" giving instructions or info about the apartment. The locks on the doors and windows were difficult to operate. During the record breaking heat wave there wasn't a fan in the house. There were no hand towels or washcloths. The hot water took an extremely long time to heat up. Not the owners fault, but the power went out and we had to throw food out. When I called the numbers the renter provided if there were problems there was no answer.
The neighbor women were very helpful. Being on the hilltop there was a nice breeze during the heat wave.

United KingdomThe water pressure is a bit low and we don't like the light in the bathroom turns off automatically while you in the mid of a bath.
The location and the view is good, owners are friendly and helpful. I particularly like the kitchen with full utensils. The whole house is clean and neat, definitely feels like home and we recommend it.
