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.).

New ZealandEverything was excellent.
An outstanding place. A beautiful lodge, first class facilities, heaps of space, very well-designed, clean, comfortable, in a lovely location on the lake. Anne and Matt were friendly and could not have been more hospitable and helpful. We loved the wood stove! This is a great place for an extended family to enjoy time together.

AustraliaWe liked everything about Tikitere Lodge.
A wonderful place to stay, very friendly welcome, the most comfortable beds and log fire. Great for a group of friends or family, sparkling lake behind the property, amazing kayaking and treks near by. Only 15 mins from Rotorua. Anne is a great host and we’re looking forward to retuning for a wonderful lamb roast .

It was beautifully clean and great layout, attention to detail with insect nets on the windows was superb especially when you need the night air for a great nights sleep in the summer, plus private lake beach access. A great location for rotorua access without having to be in the centre. The hosts were fabulous too!

CanadaThe stay couldn't have gone any better, there is nothing to dislike.
Most of the time interactions with the host can make a stay better, not enough can be said for how wonderful the family having us were. Very welcoming and helpful, and above all expectations with the accommodation! Their knowledge of local shops and tourism around the area made our stay extra wonderful.

We received the warmest welcome as the owners are wonderful and committed to making our stay exceptional. The location was perfect. I wish we had more time to enjoy the house and surrounding yard activities! The ability to do laundry was so helpful and essential to that point in our trip. We would stay here again over and over!
