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.).

SpainThe best house where we stayed in Iceland, the owners were very friendly, the house was perfect equipped, the facilities were in perfect condition and the beds were very comfortable. In our stay we saw northern lights from the house, so the stay was unbeteable. Without a doubt, highly recommended and I would repeat the stay without thinking about it. Many thanks to the owners for the welcome and if I return to Iceland, I will definitely repeat.

Hong KongMinor thing - there is a very bright outside light illuminating the parking area - good for security but not looking at the sky - they could probably come up with a better alternative since their remote location can be a selling point for watching Northern Lights.
We chose this farm stay with a view to having a good location for seeing the Northern Lights away from town lights. Check-in was easy - rooms were open and ready with keys inside. The rooms are pretty functional - only 3 in total i think - there is a kitchenette, compact bathroom and a bed with an armchair in the room and a small table and chairs. There is no TV but reasonable wifi access. Bed and bedding were comfortable. We had a great views of the Northern Lights from the patio outside our room one night so that plan worked out. Plenty of parking next to the rooms. We had dinner in town which is only 5 mins down the road.

CanadaActually, cann't think of anything.
The unit we occupied was between two others. So, a little like a motel, but with a lovely rural atmosphere. Lovely little table set on the deck which overlooked the pastures. At the corner of the building was a hot tub which the owner filled upon arrival with geothermal water, which was then emptied after we'd gone to bed. Loved the hot tub and was one of the warmest we used while in Iceland. Owners were friendly and nice, and lovely farm with everything you'd expect on a farm.

AustraliaThe bathroom door does need some attention as it swings closed of its own accord. Doors should remain where you want them!
Vallakot Farm Guesthouse was our base when exploring the Lake Myvatn area. We had several questions to pose during and shortly after booking, and Indiana was very efficient and clear in her responses. We had Room 1, closest to the parking spots, furthest from the hot tub. It was spacious and comfortable. We did need to shuffle the furniture around a little to lay down our hard suitcases, but this was something we had to do in most places. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was a very comfortable size, and we valued the closed shower and very efficient heated towel rail. There was a very useful kitchen with cooktop and microwave, and a small dining table. We arranged to have a load of laundry done for us overnight given our limited duration stay and need for some clean clothes. Our arrival was delayed because we had to wait for the weather to improve to permit driving on some of the roads. Even so, we were able to communicate with Indiana easily through the booking.com app and she was able to accommodate us. Despite a small bit of confusion about how we should pay for the laundry service, the job was done in good time. It was very easy to deal with Indiana and it was a comfortable stay for us. We would stay here again.
