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.).

Booked this stay last minute as a little birthday getaway for my partner and am so happy I did! Kirsty went above and beyond as a host, even gave us some lovely ideas on things to do in the local area. Super friendly and I liked the little unique touches left in the room. House was in a beautiful peaceful location. Our room was lovely and homely, spacious bathroom and most importantly a comfortable bed! Breakfast was great with plenty of options. I don’t often leave reviews, but this place is worthy of one!

Fabulous hosts with a real eye to detail. Superb award winning breakfasts, with homemade goodies and quality produce sourced locally. The property is awesome....a quirky 19th century house set in four acres of land. Very tranquil spot. Large bedrooms with high ceilings, very tastefully furnished. Comfy beds and a choice of pillows to guarantee a great night's sleep. A professionally run establishment. This couple deserve high praise indeed. Highly recommended. If we are back in this area we would definitely return here. Love it!

We absolutely loved the Old Vicarage, we loved everything! Our room and the whole place was very clean and inviting. Kirsty is kind and approachable. Oh, the breakfast, that was remarkable with home made jams and a surprise, made by Kirsty for every morning. There were plenty of information about the area so if you were going to go there without any plans that would not be a problem. There is a well-prepared and detailed package of what to see, what to do or what to eat. Kirsty and Gareth do their very best to make your stay remarkable. I definitely recommend this place and we need to return sometime to taste Kirsty's gooseberry chutney!

For me this was a perfect 10! Spacious, comfortable room and the nicest bathroom I have ever seen. The staff should get a reward for being the nicest, warmest and friendliest you can have; making an excellent breakfast and giving usefull advice for daytrips. And last but not least, a historic building with a nice atmosphere in a quiet surroundings.

United KingdomA remote spot in mid wales, the surrounding countryside is stunning and it was so peaceful and relaxing at the old vicarage. There is so much to explore and do in this area of wales. Gareth and Kirsty were incredibly accommodating from the moment we arrived to the time we left. Nothing was too much trouble. There was real attention to detail from the food, to the rooms. Even providing a pillow menu!! Amazing. Thank you both so much.
