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.).

AustraliaParking is absolutely terrible. Luckily it was not full. With a full car park manoeuvring would be a nightmare. You must reverse in when there are not too many cars present.
Excellent studio apartment overlooking the beach.

South AfricaI really can’t think of anything that could have been better. The staff were so welcoming and warm, the facilities were excellent and the view is something I will always miss. I don’t have a bad word to say about this wonderful lodge.
The view from my room was something you can only dream about. My bed faced an enormous round window, the size of a wall, that looked directly out onto a green lawn and the sea 20m away. I could have spent my entire holiday just looking out at that view. The room itself was spacious with a desk area, tea, coffee and hot chocolate replenished daily as well as a refrigerator. The bathroom was outstanding by any standard. It was huge, a gorgeous deep bath, lovely shower with lots of hot water, a big vanity with two basins and a dressing area with mirror. There was also a great private balcony overlooking the sea. The restaurant was closed while I was there but the menu looked really good. Breakfast was included and it was short of nothing. Everything you could possibly want for breakfast was there, from smoothies to fruit salad and yogurts, assortment of breads including fresh banana bread, cereals, fruit juices and a very good menu of cooked breakfasts

BotswanaWe left the hotel around 12noon and came back to find that our room wasn't cleaned as the staff had knocked off on the Sunday, so we came back to find our room uncleaned. For the amount of money we paid per night for the luxury room, things like ironing shouldn't come with an extra charge, every item of clothing you wanted ironed was charged.
The view was breath-taking, I spent hours on the balcony looking over to the waves on the beach, it is a brilliant place to stay. We stayed there for 2 nights, but had to add another because it was wonderful. The room was super clean, bathroom excellent and the view was amazing. Breakfast menu was mouth-watering and very filling, where we had breakfast as well had a great view. Very refreshed.

South AfricaThat we as first time visitors did not know you have to pre-book meals due to the high quality and full bookings. Guests should have first option and be informed to book ahead. It was NO FUN to drive around on Christmas Day '23 looking for a place to have a decent Christmas Lunch. In the end we took a chance and walked into Altstad Restaurant who was also fully booked but they made a plan and we could enjoy absolute delicious food on Christmas.
The Food was absolutely Exceptionally Superb All Staff are extremely friendly and helpful The View is absolutely Beautiful They made a plan for us first timers to help us with a double mattress instead of having 2x single beds.
