Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomNoise from the toilet and the other rooms. Hot, difficult to ventilate, poor value for money.
Clean, tidy, good shower and nice bed linen.

United KingdomThe room did get very warm, even though there was an air Conditioning unit! We kept the curtains closed as we had a couple lovely warm sunny days and this did help to keep the room cool whilst we were out during the day
The room was compact, cute, comfortable, tastefully decorated but adequate for our needs. We were pleasantly surprised at how lovely it was - the pictures don’t do it justice really. We almost had a harbour view too! It is perfectly located for exploring the beautiful harbour and was perfect us being a stones throw from our favourite restaurant Kota - highly recommend eating here, particularly the tasting menu - stunning. Also The Square do THE most delicious fish and chips, deffo worth a try too!

United KingdomThe appalling attitude of Porthleven holiday cottages. We live in Cornwall. We booked here for a specific event. DO NOT give your money to these people. They couldn't care less about their customers. Just money orientated

United KingdomThe plumbing was incredibly noisy, making it impossible to flush the toilet in the night without waking the whole house. Any water used made a horrendous noise. There is no mirror near a plug socket for drying hair. The wardrobe is a child's size so impossible to hang a dress. The room faces East and gets the morning sun but there are no shade blinds, only curtains, that held in the heat and excluded light and air, so on a lovely sunny morning it was an oven. The room also overlooks a terrace that is for everyone's use, so privacy is an issue.
The room was spotlessly clean and the bed was comfortable.

United KingdomLocation was good (close proximity to everything), room was clean and nice. However, do not stay here if you would like a good nights sleep. It wasn’t even warm the night we stayed (less than 20 degrees) yet the room was SO HOT - neither of us slept, so dread to think what it’s like when its warmer outside. Neither of us can understand why / how the room is so hot, even opening the window didn’t change that. Such a shame as the room was nice but we had such an awful nights sleep. Porthleven is also very dead and we didn’t think the area was very nice (quite run down), not many restaurants etc open, but this might be different in peak season when the sun is shining!
