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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

Sam and George were really welcoming, the room was a great size with and huge bed. With all the little extras including refrigerator, microwave, toaster, tea/coffee, selection of Biscuits, shower gel, extra power adapters. They had thought of everything you may need.. the room was exceptionally clean. The following morning we had a cooked breakfast made in front of us in their lovely Barn House.

United KingdomIt was the F1 weekend and unfortunately the village was closed to external traffic hence, once the Silverstone Gran Prix was over, we had to walk for some silly amount of time (over one hour!) to get back to our room, yet, the host went above and beyond our expectations when offered to get us to the circuit before the race started. Well impressed
Super host, excellent location, the breakfast we were served was delicious and excellent value for money, very confortable beds and great shower room.

Excellent location for Silverstone - the walk to the track was around 5km and as a keen walker, it took no time at all, on the way back you can pop into the town pub for a drink (like we did!). Sam was excellent at communicating beforehand and the whole family were extremely welcoming, the location is stunning (a working farm) with the most incredible views!

United KingdomThe only improvement would have been to stay for a week rather than just one night. The next time I'm in the area I will definitely be heading back.
Handley Barn certainly exceeded my expectations. Such kind and friendly hosts, a fully equipped room (even a toaster, fridge (with fresh milk), microwave, and biscuits). Everything was spotlessly clean and incredibly comfortable with an enormous bed. Wonderful indulgent breakfast from Sam, and all in the most beautiful setting. I would highly recommend staying at Handley Barn.
