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.).

United KingdomThere's absolutely nothing to not like about the lodge! Only thing I think we missed was a microwave so we could heat up some food we had (but that didn't put us off at all, only a suggestion 😊)
My bestie and I wanted a weekend of peace and BOY did we get it.... stunning location, so peaceful - only noise is from the occasional neigh of the horses or a twitter from a bird! Never experienced such a calming space. All the amenities you need with some personal touches too. The horse food to feed the 3 horses was such a sweet touch (and I'm scared of horses but they were super friendly!), remember to take carrots 😉 We thought we'd try to order a takeaway (given how rural we were, we weren't hopeful) however, the Wong Wong in Weston Rhyn deliver and the Chinese was amazing!! The sunrise is well worth getting up early for as it's so stunning, equally if it's a bit drizzly to watch the mist rise to uncover the valley below is just as stunning. Some friends of ours have already booked to stay here on our recommendation! Mike and Gilly were the perfect hosts! Honestly if you're after that haven of peace and tranquility then the Wilderness Lodge excels and then some! Thank you.

The setting is stunning and unique and it was very quiet The horses that come up to the fence was a lovely added extra. So many friends have asked me for the link of where we stayed. Owners was very responsive. We got home today and booked again for next year!

United KingdomTraditional British weather sent torrential rain for the whole valentine's weekend; but this didn't stop us having a wonderful time at Hobbit House. The weather for us was a non-issue; apart from how muddy and slippery it made the hill/lane to access the property. A little more gravel may be useful along the lane to help make it less slippery and reduce falls.
Hobbit House was simply wonderful. Stunning views and beautiful sunrise each morning. The property was well equipped and to a high standard throughout. Tranquil space to relax and unwind. Chirk Aquaduct worth a walk and lots of lovely places to paddle nearby had the weather been better.
