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.).

IrelandLocation is difficult to get to if driving or wanting to go for a walk. Very steep hills with 40 degree gradiants and the car I rented struggled very bad with getting up the hill to the resort. Best to get the resort to transfer you with their own 4x4.
Amazing room with private pool and stunning views. 2 private bathrooms and kitchen area. View from the mountain canopy over east side of Koh Samui

Czech RepublicWe were staying in Villa Jumpee. Everything is great, especially if you are looking for quiet and private accommodation, where you are away from the hustle and bustle. Fantastic large private pool with beautiful views of Chaweng. Those who want to spend beautiful moments of relaxation will find them here, and those who look for faults will also find them. That depends on everyone. I appreciate the great idea: communicating with the reception, for example, about cleaning via Whatsapp.

United KingdomNothing, it was perfect
We booked into the gardenia room for 1 night on our honeymoon. The room is very comfortable with a spa bath and relaxation area. We also used the communal pool which has a spectacular view over the sea. Someone in the grand ocean view pool villa cancelled last minute so we upgraded. The staff were exceptionally helpful arranging this for us. The villa blew us away. Huge rooms with a very well designed and outfitted kitchen. Private infinity pool with views across the bay. The staff were amazing. They encouraged us to order room service to make the most of our stay which we did. It was very simple - just send them a message on whatsapp and they brought the food straight up. There is a spa bath with light and bluetooth! it was a magical stay.

IndiaThe whole villa was super spacious and comfortable. The view from the pool area was amazing. The service team was very efficient and responsive. All you need to do is drop your request on their whatsapp and they would get it done immediately. Also they helped us in booking tours directly from the hotel and the prices were at par with the market prices. Overall a memorable stay. Would definitely visit again.

FranceThe steep access road is a bit intimidating but that's the price to pay for those awesome views. A car or scooter is a must unless one plans to spend most of the time in the villa, which can be fun too.
I have not been as happy as at the Sandalwood Villas in any other hotel. All around a wonderful experience! The staff is extremely kind and helpful, the villa stunningly beautiful, the views from the villa are out of this world...

United KingdomNothing. It was flawless.
Where to start?! The view as you enter will blow your mind, the attention to detail of the entire place is impressive - clean, beautiful, well cared for. The staff welcome you like family and are happy to help you in any way they can - whether that's arranging a private car to take you where you want to go, providing last minute items, or giving detailed advice about the island. And THE FOOD! We had eaten exceptionally well all across Thailand but Blue Ginger was a highlight - definitely try the lemongrass shrimp 🦐! Sandlewood lived up to every area it promised. I can't wait to be back soon...
