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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

LatviaOn the downside, the hairdryer in our room was broken, and the bathroom was relatively small considering how spacious the room itself was.
We had a lovely stay at this hotel, which featured a beautiful, well-maintained garden and a spacious pool with varying depths. There were plenty of lounge chairs, so there was always enough space, and it never felt crowded. Breakfast was served in a charming old villa, which added to the experience. The freshly baked bread was delicious. The hotel is also close to the lake beach (quite crowded) and several restaurants. However, the public transportation (at holidays) in the area isn't reliable, but the hotel staff were helpful in arranging taxi.

United KingdomRoom was a little bit outdated, but it’s perfectly useable and very clean. Slightly disappointed to have to pay for water with our evening meal every night. Drinks throughout the hotel are typical hotel prices. With a supermarket down the road you can buy water, soft drinks and alcohol for a fraction of the price. Handy to take back to your room but it feels like the prices of drinks, although understandable, stop people from using the bar and potentially socialising!
Very clean, the apartment we were in was very spacious and well equipped! Beautiful gardens and the pool was perfect! Cleaning staff and all other staff around the hotel were lovely and very friendly. We thought the food was excellent, contrary to some other reviews we had read. Breakfast catered for all of our needs and the four course evening menus made three of us (who are fairly fussy eaters) try things that we wouldn’t normally eat! Pasta dishes were superb, spinach lasagne was the wife’s favourite. The veal in particular was a delicious main course and the panna cotta and hazelnut parfait were fabulous desserts!

SloveniaOnly that we couldn't open some windows in bungalow.
Breakfast was perfect. Unfortunately ends pretty early for people who would like to sleep longer. Also pool closes too early for summer time. It would be nice if it would be open until daylight to be able to refresh once more before going to bed. The whole property is very nice and quiet. Well maintained mostly.

Hotel was a magnificent building but in need of some tlc. Staff were helpful to a degree but they weren't going to put themselves out for you.
