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.).

The most peaceful little escape, had everything you would need for a few nights away from busy day to day life, while still only just a 10-15 minute drive to the village near by. The hot tub was perfect and the little wood fire stove inside so cosy. The hosts were beyond accommodating and simply the loveliest people.

Very cosy bothy with a wood burner and wood-fired hot tub. Really peaceful location just next to a beautiful woodland. A pretty garden surrounds the bothy. Caroline and Ivan are friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful stay enjoying the hot tub and forest walks. You can stroll through the woods all the way to Cawdor to see the castle and gardens. An awesome little spot to get away from it all and chill out.

United KingdomWiFi would have been useful but this was not a major inconvenience.
The property is indeed a peaceful retreat, with only birdsong for company at night, it's a perfect getaway. There is a large garden in front and trees and bushes surround the property. The broom was in in its brilliant yellow when we stayed. Host Caroline could not have been more helpful and informative. We did try the hot tub once - Caroline offered to fire it up on the other two days - and it was very relaxing. We ate at the Cawdor Tavern - 3 miles away - and it was excellent. Cawdor Castle is highly recommended for the castle and the gardens.

United KingdomIvan was there to meet us and talk us through a few things such as the hot tub which is AMAZING by the way! Ivan and Caroline also had the tub ready for us arriving with a complimentary whiskey too. It was a fantastic and much needed relaxing weekend and the hosts contributed to that big time. Thank you.

United KingdomVery minor issue but there was no blind for the long side window, above the fire & armchairs. We used the cushions to block out the early morning light.
Everything went very well. Caroline met us and showed us round the amazing 'bothy'. She was always a WhatsApp away when we had a question.
