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 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.).

AustraliaWould have liked a washing machine but only because we were on a month long golf holiday.
Harewood cottage was exactly like the photos we saw before our visit. We stayed three nights and cooked in the wonderful kitchen. It had all the little touches that make for a great stay. Beautiful furnishings, very comfortable in a pretty little county town.

United KingdomI didn't like the sensor light on the wall in the bedroom that kept getting activated overnight, everytime I kicked the duvet off and back on, very disturbing for someone who has trouble sleeping to start with.
Very good location, nice and quiet, and some lovely groceries supplied to start us off.

Shane and I loved everything about this beautiful cottage, from the wood burning stove, the wooden beams, the extra blankets left for us, the gorgeous bedroom, the wonderful bath, the goodies left for us (wine, eggs, which we forgot to eat, croissants and jam), the wooden trunk with games to play, the lighting, the candles, the wildlife, the peace and quiet, the list is endless. See it for yourself, it really is one of the most wonderful home from home. Thankyou for a lovely holiday.

I think it was our third time staying here and we always look forward to it. Can never fault anything, Julia thinks of everything before you’ve even thought of it. The kitchen is extremely well stocked, nice touches like chocolate, a bottle of wine, milk and croissants. It really is a high end luxurious stay. The internet went down at one point for several hours on the second day (caused by storm) the weather prevented us from leaving so we played board games (loads of decent ones in the cottage) - never have we ever done that before together and aside from me flipping the board after I lost, it was such a laugh and created such a core memory - best part of the trip. Thanks so much Julia we hope you will welcome us back next year.

United KingdomCouldn't fault the cottage.
The property was stunning and beautifully presented. Upon request Julia kindly put a stairgate up for my 3.5 year old. It was the perfect cottage for the 2 of us, as the sofa bed was fine for my daughter. I cooked most nights in the kitchen which had everything I needed utensil wise. The location was great for all the placed we visited and we would definitely come back again.

United KingdomWe loved our stay at Harewood cottage and appreciated the little thoughtful extras (eggs chocolate, wine etc). Easy instructions on how to collect key, very private, spotlessly clean!, plenty of information to hand about the area and recommendations of walks to take. The cottage had everything we needed, and we enjoyed a comfortable nights sleep.

United KingdomA couple of cellar spiders but a hoover supplied and we know they’re inevitable with a cottage.
It was exactly as pictured, clean, quaint, private and serene. We loved watching the puddle ducks running back and forth across the owners’ garden and made great use of the garden with a BBQ on day one and a small log fire on day one while it rained. We adored every aspect.
