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.).

NorwayStaff did not meet expectations. We called ahead and asked if they could arrange something for our 6 year olds birthday. They did say yes, and nothing was done. My daughter also wanted to buy a teddy but was denied as they wouldn't take cash. And no businesses are allowed to deny legal tender in Norway. She left crying. The park in itself is great! But they will milk you for money at every chance they get. And everything is excessively overpriced.

AustriaWas there with my dog - absolutely no problem. Only a small fee is to be paid for bringing a dog. The people I encountered there where very nice. I arrived very late but that was no problem at all. Best part of the hotel is its directly next to the Zoo so in the morning when you walk the dog you can already see Zebras and some other animals. Plus it's 6min (by car) away from a nature reserve where you can get lost for hours with your dog! Amazing!

NorwayA worn out room. I would not say anything about the premises, but as the most important thing in the room - the bed - was horrible I leave this review here. I could not get good nights sleep in this hotel room which was very important to me because sleeping in the bed was like sleeping on the trampoline. I felt like my husband is jumping in the bed when he changed sides. The bed frame sides were higher than middle of the bed so we were rolling to the centre of the bed all the time. Sink plug was missing and there was a crack in the sink. Small table was wobbly because it missed the fourth leg. Refrigerator box was next to bed (the headboard) and I could hear the sound when it worked. The view from the window of my room was to the opposite hotel room which was 5 metres apart, lost feeling of privacy, kept window closed all the time. Would really appreciate decent dinner menu.
Entrance to the zoo was couple of minutes away. Breakfast which was for additional price was excellent. Heated floor in the bathroom.
