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 KingdomThere was nothing to dislike about the property.
Excellent location, less than 5 minutes walk to restaurants and pubs. Hosts Shaun & Tracey friendly and helpful. Property felt more like a small boutique hotel than a B&B. Interior design and furnishings fantastic. Attention to detail everywhere. Super comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast. Would highly recommend and would return without hesitation.

United KingdomThe guesthouse is located on a busy road junction, but the double glazed windows are effective at screening the traffic noise. There is very little noise at night after the traffic dies down and we slept very well. The parking space at the property is a little awkward to manoeuvre in and out of, but there are plenty of street parking bays nearby which are free to park in overnight.
Comfortable and immaculately decorated room in beautifully restored Georgian house. Sean and Tracey very friendly and attentive hosts. Lovely breakfast with plenty of choice. The guesthouse is centrally located in Penrith, a very attractive town with lots of interesting shops, pubs and restaurants. Penrith is a great base for walking in the nearby Ullswater and Haweswater areas, and the Northern Lake District fells. We really enjoyed our stay.

United KingdomThe friendliest and most accomodating guesthouse I've ever been to. Lots of little things make this place a special place to stay, very thoughtful and kind hosts consistently went above and beyond to make sure we had an excellent experience. We stayed here as part of the Coast to Coast cycle. An amazing place to relax and rest after a full days activity.100% would recommend to any couple looking for a lovely overnight stay!

Shaun and Tracey are charming and extremely helpful hosts. The decor is worthy of a five star+ hotel. There was fresh milk in a flask in the bedroom with the kettle, etc. ( I don't mind UHT milk too much, but I prefer fresh milk). There were lots of little special touches. All four of us (two couples in our 70s) were very impressed and happy.

When we arrived in Penrith, we had booked a hotel for the wrong date. Tracy was extremely accommodating letting us stay for the night in one of the best rooms she had available. The bathroom was absolutely beautiful and the bed was really comfortable. The breakfast was exceptional. Tracy again going above and beyond to make us comfortable welcome and meeting our requests. A fantastic day we would definitely come in again
