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 was nothing that we did not like.
It was self catering. We cooked our own breakfast as the kitchen was well equipped with all the crockery, etc. Host was very friendly and helped us with our luggage. Instructions in the property was very clear and lots of information was provided for us to visit various location. When we could not operate an appliance the host came round to show us. Property was amazing. Will visit again.

United KingdomVery satisfied with our stay and no negatives that were a problem for us. Just to note it is at the top of a hill and anyone with mobility issues may find it awkward as it is steps up to the property but you do get a lovely view across Ilfracombe.
The property was excellent, clean, modern, with all we needed for our stay and very comfortable. Hosts were very welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. The bottle of milk in the fridge on arrival was most appreciated for a coffee, after a long motorway journey and the rest of the welcome package was the best we have encountered on our travels.

United KingdomWell thought out, beautifully decorated and very clean. The welcome basket was a lovely touch after a long drive. The scenery was lovely and the amenities plentiful. Very comfy beds and very peaceful. We will definitely return. The hosts were both really welcoming and were there if needed with helpful ideas of where to go if you have not been before. I will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family.

United KingdomN/A, all was really lovely.
We loved everything about the Kite. Jane and Noel were there to meet us on arrival. Even though we arrived late they were full of smiles and were wonderful hosts throughout. The arrival hamper was a lovely welcoming touch, the views are stunning, and the setting is magical, especially at night. Every attention to detail has been thought of and we had a wonderful stay at the Kite. It's a special place and we're looking forward to booking again for next year. Our family loved it!
