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 KingdomNothing - we throughly enjoyed our stay.
This was our first time glamping and we were throughly enjoyed our stay. It was surprisingly spacious and space was cleaverly used to accommodate a family. There were spices and little touches left that made it even better. The chickens that visited every morning was lovely and everything was clean and ready to use for a family. This is a family must!

The children liked the chickens a lot and the ability to make a bit of a fire in the evening. The general standard is at a pleasant level and according to what you pay for. It is very clean and I liked the cleverness of the space solutions.

IndiaThe roosters come every morning and sometimes in the evening. At first, you feel nice about them but when you bring your food outside in the sit out area, these roosters 7-8 in the number, will surround you and will make every possible effort to get food from you. That becomes annoying. And they will follow you to and from the pod if you have food in your hand.
Lovely place. In the middle of the countryside. Quiet and calm. A totally different experience from the hotels. Good for short stays. The location direction from the host was perfect. Nice sit out outside the pods. Wendy and Jack are very helpful.

United KingdomThere was nothing we could fault, we liked everything about the pod and the surroundings.
The glamping pod was beautiful, spotless and surprisingly had lots of space for our family of 4. The kids loved the fire pit outside, and the chickens which greeted us each morning. There was lots of little touches which were great, such as spices etc in the cupboard and shortbread for a snack. The surroundings were lovely and peaceful, but so close to aviemore and inverness for days out.

AustraliaCouch was very hard. Not very comfortable. Unable to get in or out of the side of the bed. Had to get in from the end of the bed. Not ideal for an old body like mine. I do understand though there is no extra room to give. It is what it is.
It was a good size for 2 people. Fully self contained including two ring hob. Very clean.

Lovely place to stay. Great location and a super pod. Very well looked after and the grounds, recycling bins etc were also well arranged and organised. We woke to find seven hens on the pod's little veranda and they provided great entertainment each morning we were there!

United KingdomThere weren't any faults with the pods or the stay, but if I had to say one thing then I think there should be at least one more sign leading up to the campsite, just to let travellers know they're almost here. I wondered if I got lost when we reached the small bridge, but it's just a little further around the river.
I cannot rate the Tomatin Glamping Pods highly enough. The pods were like a home away from home, so very comfortable. The space was more than what I was expecting. The facilities far exceeded my expectations, with basically a full kitchen and bathroom (the shower was to die for). We were happily greeted by a flock of gorgeous, friendly hens who really topped off our experience here. It was so quiet and peaceful, we were able to have a small fire pit on our last evening and had a childhood favourite for dessert. These memories will stay with me forever and I can't wait to share this place with my friends and family. Thank you, thank you!
