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.).

United KingdomThere was anything I didn't like. If I was being picky, may be a shower mat for the bath in case of any slip.
It was easy to find, immaculate, well stocked and lovely to have milk, fresh bread and oj left for us. The information booklet was very informative. Easy to park, great to have Netflix, coffee, tea. 2 bedrooms. The shower was lovely and the apartment was very warm

AustraliaPillows need replacing on beds as they were super thin and a second tea towel would be good as one not enough for 4 people for 3 days. The bed in the upstairs bedroom was only a few inches off the ground and this should be noted in the description. Very very difficult to get out of bed from the floor.
Quiet, great location , facilities, cleanliness and treats/pantry items.

New ZealandWithout a car it is a bit of a walk from town with luggage but this was known to us when booking as was well described. Uber/taxi was good value for our group.
Very clean, modern and well equipped. Great communication from the owner :-) Some welcoming touches with bread, jams, drinks and snacks etc. Definitely would recommend this accommodation.

Czech RepublicThere was a fresh bread waiting for us in addition to the coffee, teas, milk, and cookies. The accommodation is super clean and has some lovely extra touches to make it feel welcoming. There is a bus stop to the city centre about 1 km's walk away. I would definitely stay here again if I were visiting Bath.

United KingdomFabulous in every way! This was a supremely comfortable and welcoming place to stay. Tom and Wendy were terrific hosts to my husband and I while not being at all intrusive, and the sense of privacy and space was a delight. The outdoor area is so nice, with fairy lights for the evenings, and the outdoor table and chairs are sheltered enough to enjoy sitting outside in almost any weather. The facilities inside were all immaculate too, with lots of thoughtful touches like big fluffy towels, and the beds were fab. The location is lovely, with views of hills in the distance while being in spitting distance of the city centre - and great parking directly outside. All in all a perfect place to stay!

GermanyIt was a little out of town to be without a car and Uber wasn't very good at rush hour. But it was possible to walk 10 minutes to a bus stop and get into Bath in 10-15 minutes. We knew about the location when we booked and would definitely not have had such a wonderful place in the centre, so this is rather for info, not complaining!
Wendy was very thoughtful and provided us with fresh bread, milk and orange juice. The flat was lovingly and stylishly decorated and had everything we needed. Communication was easy and very friendly. The weather was great, so we could have breakfast in the courtyard. Really delightful!

United StatesBath city center is around 30 mins walk from property.
Beautiful place to stay. Host is very helpful as they checked us in even if we reached late in the evening. The property is new and very comfortable. I will say a home away from home. The kitchen facilities are just amazing. Last but not the least is the welcome snack basket. It was so helpful for our next day breakfast. Road side parking is also very convenient. I will definitely recommend.

United KingdomThe downstairs bedroom isn't really big enough for a double bed. I would have thought in the Summer the yard MIGHT be a little small. I can't really complain as it clearly stated how far it was from the City Centre but we MIGHT reconsider the location if we were coming to Bath again but overall we were very happy there.
I thought the property was very neat and tidy. The host lived next door and was friendly and helpful and leaving various supplies (bread, milk, coffee etc) was a really nice touch and overall I felt we got more than what we paid for.

United KingdomLovely welcome by Wendy and good communications prior to arrival. Lovely welcome pack with good quality local produce, Wendy even went out of her way to provide delicious gluten free bread and almond milk for us when we said we were gluten and dairy intolerant. She also provided good quality ground coffee and a cafetière when she heard that we were coffee drinkers. She lives closeby and was always on hand to help when needed. Excellent local information provided, quiet location with private Al fresco dining area. Very clean and tidy with lovely furnishings. It was the perfect place for my daughter and I to have as a base over a three night stay in Bath.
