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 KingdomThe apartment was superb in every way. The exterior, an 18th century palace, has been beautifully restored and the owners have created a modern palace inside. The apartment is spacious and tastefully decorated. The bed is wonderfully comfortable. The air conditioning was very good. The bathroom walls are covered with beautiful Sicilian marble and owners have used the best quality fixtures and fittings. It is luxurious. We especially loved the loggia where we enjoyed our morning coffee and a drink in the evening. The owners were helpful - Alice kindly booked a taxi for us when we were leaving. We hope to return.

United KingdomNot really a problem for us, but there are 20 plus steps to climb which could be an issue for some people.
The apartment is located in a palazzo in an excellent location with many good choices for dining a ahort walk away and lots of atmospheric little lanes to wander about in. It is spacious, comfortable and equipped with modern appliances. There is a large terrace overlooking a busy cocktail bar in the Palace courtyard. The bar is noisy, but the apartment is so well soundproofed that it is not a problem at night. The bed is large and comfortable, a little on the firm side. The air conditioning is very good. The rooms were surprisingly large. The bathroom alone must be at least 8 metres long. It is equipped with a modern bath, a wet room shower, double sinks etc. We never met the hosts, which is a shame, as I would have liked to thank them personally for our stay. We would definitely stay again.

TurkeyOur wifi didn’t work. Our street was quite noisy in the mornings, though the facility’s noise insulation was good.
Comfortable, large room, minimalist architecture in an old palace. We loved the style and the fact that everything was brand new and clean. The location was central, short walking distance to all major attractions, restaurants and bars. The common terrace area was calm and very pleasant.
