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.).

AustriaBed could have been more comfortable. Room is rather bare. Still, had a nice stay.
Nice location, with (a bit of) a view of the river from the terrace in front of the room. The terrace is also nice to sit outside, and relax a bit. Quite a few restaurants around.

GermanyIt’s not possible to close the doors silently unfortunately there were other quests who constantly were opening and closing their room door at 6am the one morning, that was super annoying
It’s quite simple but got everything you need. Comfy bed, warm water, ac, balcony and spacious rooms. Even a hairdryer and laundry service. The location is a bit behind the bridge, everything you need is within walking distance. You can even book tours with them and the staff was nice. We were doing a overnight hike and could leave our bags here for the night and check back in early the next day.

New ZealandThe bathroom could use updating (it took some figuring out how to use the shower, and the bidet didn't seem to work). I think everything is looking a bit dated, and for the price, I was maybe expecting a bit better quality. But overall it's fine for a couple of nights.
An okay stay at Meexai. The bed was comfortable and the location is good (easy walk to the two hikes I did and the Historical Caves). There's a very sweet dog on the property who walked with me through town one time.

United KingdomThe owner tried to ascertain what we had paid elsewhere for a two-day trek, got the wrong end of the stick and posted on the local trekking company WhatsApp an incorrect price so by the time we arrived at the company to start the trek, the owner accused us of lying about the price we’d paid and we had to speak to the WhatsApp group to set the record straight.
The property was well-located and clean.

ItalyThe wife was always grumpy with this angry face and didn’t speak English. The bathroom was uncomfortable as it didn’t have much space to place my things on. Also even if the boiler was on no hot water was coming and I took cold showers.
The husband was very helpful to buy my train tickets through the lao train app, even if he charged me a commission fee. Location was good and also the view.
