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.).

New ZealandLocation is close to everything and convenient. Room was super clean and has everything you need during a stay. Ina's communication is quick and easy, she was very accommodating and generous with her time and effort. Breakfast was delicious and substantial, would definitely stay again and highly recommend for those passing through or stopping in Waimate.

Ina gave us such a lovely welcome, showed us how everything worked and made suggestions of places to eat. It was a very cold wet day so she turned the heating on for us and at bedtime I discovered the electric blanket. It was such a beautiful well equipped, spotless apartment. In the morning Ina brought in the most delicious breakfast, including homemade museli and homemade bread. Wish we could have stayed more than one night!

Luxury in a tremendous B&B! Fantastic apartment. And - very seldom enough - plenty of hooks for our clothes. Private parking, comfy beds and every morning a delicious breakfast served in the room. Located in a very quiet neighbourhood in a small lovely town halfway between Timaru and Oamaru. And gate to Kurow, Omarama, Twizel! Thank you Ina for your generous hospitality!

New ZealandCould not be faulted. Would have given a 10 if I believed that anything in our world is 100% perfection.
Beautifully presented and clean, great breakfast choices, Ina's home baked bread was the best we had ever had, so delicious we asked her to bake us a loaf to take home, delicious locally made jams to go with it. She was extremely attentive. Most comfortable bed we have slept in away from home and very quiet. Lovely outdoors area to sit and enjoy a quiet wine at the end of a busy day. Booked another stay before leaving, was so good. Thank you Ina.

New ZealandPerhaps the option of breakfast left in room rather than having to decide on a time each day would have been nice- appreciate that would only work for folk like us who just want simple breakfasts and not if you wanted cooked option though.
