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.).

IsraelThere seem to be no dinner alternatives other that eating at the hotel (which I don't normally do). This obviously added to the cost.
The location of this lodge is absolutely stunning. Rooms are very nice and obviously face the scenery. Unfortunately I only stayed one night so couldn't enjoy the room some more, but the location is accessible to lots of hiking opportunities in this area.

AustraliaOk, let’s find something for the sake of it ; the pillows were thick and hard and not very comfortable. The ceiling fan works with a remote and we have been unable to adjust it on ‘low’ ; it seems to be locked on « high » which is way too powerful. Not a big deal as the AC was enough to cool the room anyway. Still ; I absolutely loved my stay at Betikure.
What a lovely place ! Charming bungalows, spacious and clean, nested in a lovely hill, with all the features you can think about. The property is covered with some beautiful palm trees. I loved the design of the rooms and of everything else in general ; pool, restaurant, etc. Thumbs up to the architect. Everything was well thought with attention to details. We had a fantastic 3 course dinner and the breakfast was very decent too (would be perfect with some eggs). The staff was courteous, friendly and helpful. Wifi was working well, instantly, in the bungalows, in the pool and in the restaurant and without silly password. All this (room, meals) for a price which was reasonable and on par with some other places of much lesser quality.

AustraliaCould I suggest a savoury option be added to the breakfast menu?
We loved the location of the property. We loved that bags and people could be transported to the room if the walk was too much. We loved the design of the buildings and the landscape. And we especially loved the limited, but great, dinner menu and breakfast. Best evening meal of our trip to New Caledonia!

Italy- A bit tough to carry our luggage all the way to the room and back, since it was not directly accessible via car. However, luckily we got a lift from the receptionist with her amazing buggy - Breakfast not included in the rate, which was not the cheapest one...
- The room was very spacious and comfortable - The dinner and breakfast, although not included, were satisfactory - The total tranquillity we could enjoy from the room and the balcony - The funny buggy ride to get to our room

United Statesthe property is a bit off the beaten path. you’ll need to have your own transportation to get here. However, that is part of the charm.
This is a really unique space that is surrounded by hills and lush green scape, not to mention the birds. The pool is great on a really hot day or after going on a short hike around the property. The rooms are spacious and unique in themselves. The daily Dinners here are exceptionally delicious that I highly recommend.

AustraliaIt was a bit of a walk from your room to reception (and the pool and bar/restaurant) so while there was a boardwalk, it was not the most accessible place to stay. That being said, reception staff offset this by offering assistance getting to and from your room with your bags.
This felt like a hidden gem in the countryside of Bourail. The room was impeccably clean and styled, surrounded by a lush garden that made you feel like you were alone in the forest. The pool was lovely and the bar was great. While we didn't eat there, the menu for dinner looked really good.

AustraliaThe bed was a little too firm for my taste. Just a heads up : the charming wooden stepped walkway up the hill from the pool/restaurant wouldnt suit someone with a disability.
We had a beautifully appointed cabin, with exceptional fittings, especially the bathroom, looking over the valley at the top of the property. Smallish pool but very nice. Stunning, just a shame it was only 1 night. Bathroom was fit for a Vogue shoot. Grounds were lovely and the larger spa units looked very appealing!
