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.).

AustraliaSome of the restaurant staff are a bit junior and get overwhelmed. Customers should be nice!
Quirky and comfortable, plus well sized rooms. The restaurant was too pretty and convenient to walk past - we had breakfast and a couple of lunches there. Great neighbourhood for cafes and shopping, with leafy streets to walk in if you want to avoid the Portobello Road hubbub.

United KingdomBeautiful hotel in an extremely beautiful part of the country. This deceivingly small hotel, which isn't that small one, you get up the steps from the main road is a hidden gem. The hotel manager Karen is a delight to deal with and converse with as are an array of staff, particularly Talin the chap who works the restaurant. Food is impeccable and can not be faulted, nor can its position within walking distance of everything.

United KingdomMore detailed information about the number of steps would be helpful for those with mobility issues or the option to request a room in the main building. It would be better if the dinner menu was made available before 6pm!
Breakfast was excellent. A full choice of fresh fruit, pastries and cooked options were available. Being able to sit outside on the terrace enabled us to enjoy the fabulous view. All staff were very helpful and the hotel has its own car park. The sun loungers and coffee at the Beach Club.

United KingdomDrinks service was patchy- the first evening we waited a long while for drinks in the lounge. The second evening we were on the terrace and waited, seemingly invisible, for some time while a member of serving staff chatted to another table of four about their game of Trivial Pursuit! We then managed to catch the eye of another staff member and my husband ordered two drinks to save a further wait! Our room was comfortable and stylish but the bathroom needs some repairs - huge crack in the wash basin and several cracked floor tiles. The exterior paintwork needs some attention too. Minor points in the whole scheme of things and did not spoil our stay. The hotel atmosphere is calm and relaxing, it has a sort of Art Deco feel about it. But at the prices they charge it should really be perfect!
Superb location. Our room (12) had a roof terrace overlooking the sea with lovely sun beds and table/chairs. Food was excellent but fairly limited choice- okay for us as we eat anything but could be restrictive for some. Menu changes daily which helps if you’re staying more than one night. Service in the restaurant was exemplary.

United KingdomThe 'tiny' tables for two in the restaurant; the lack of atmosphere in the lounge/library area - whilst beautifully and tastefully decorated it was rather 'sterile' - perhaps soft music playing in the background would help ease the awkwardness; whilst there were a number of people in there no-one was talking and it was almost like sitting in a doctors waiting room. Not a fan of not being able to wash my hands before leaving the toilet room - but accept there's limited space for a small hand wash basin.
We liked the meet & greet, the valet parking, friendliness and helpfulness of the staff and nothing was too much trouble - they were superb. Our bed was exceptionally comfortable, our room was quiet with lovely views over the bay. The food was excellent and overall we very much enjoyed our 2 night stay. Thank you also for the kind gesture to help us celebrate my husband's birthday.
