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.).

Upon arrival, Richard surprised us with delicious scones and tea. The house is set up high on a hill and our room had the perfect view. Fantastic breakfast, very clean and beautiful rooms and very comfortable mattress. Richard and Robert are the perfect hosts, thank you.

United KingdomNothing I didn’t like.
The property is beautiful, very tastefully decorated, enjoying a panoramic view and in a perfect location. It’s truly a 5-star luxury bed and breakfast. Robert and Richard are wonderful hosts who provide their guests with very exquisite and attentive service. From delicious cream tea on arrival, to a purple Platinum Jubilee Gift Hamper, to a very impressive breakfast, the whole experience staying in Highcliffe House was incredible. We would highly recommend this unique, beautiful and luxury B&B to everyone.

United KingdomWe really can’t think of anything that could be bettered. Well done Richard and Robert and thank you for looking after us so well.
From the time we were greeted and helped to park to being seen off,our experience was exceptionally good. The views both from the lounge and our room were spectacular. The room was comfortable and spotlessly clean. We enjoyed our evening cocktail before the short walk to dinner in the town. Breakfast was lovely and very freshly cooked. We wouldn’t think of going anywhere else if we return to Lyndon.

United KingdomJust a word of warning: if your mobility is compromised, there are steps everywhere and no lift. Although I’m certain that Robert or Richard would help with luggage if needed - they were so welcoming!
Breakfast was superb: a lot of choice, all home cooked with locally sourced ingredients, homemade james and marmalade and massive portions!! The location was wonderful: high up overlooking the sea, the town, the moors and the valley with a 180 degree view. There is a wee terrace above a steep garden which is well tended.
