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.).

JapanThe shower was quite old and didn’t have any pressure so we needed to sit on the floor to take a shower.
We initially booked the Arabic tent, but because it was going to rain that night they upgraded us to a sunset chalet for free.

United Arab EmiratesI just found the room locks a bit fiddly each time I left my room but otherwise no complaints at all.
The Resort is a fantastic location for hiking and the staff are so friendly. Its great that the dinner and breakfast are included too - I made sure to pack some carbs for the big hike day from breakfast :) Unfortunately I didnt get to use the pool but its a great touch to the resort as well as all the pomegranate trees around the property.

United Arab EmiratesBe warned- the drive up is hard if you do not have a 4x4! Its a 11km sand path up a mountain- brutal!
The view from the arabic tents of sunset is the most phenomenal thing I've ever seen. When the sun had set- the star gazing was just incredible, so clear. The tents were spacious and had very comfy beds- the unlimite glamping experience!

OmanShower looked a bit uninviting. Could do with a big clean especially the drain. 😱
Thank you for the hot water, very welcoming when it’s 6 degrees. Tent was basic but clean. We were semi camping. Made our own food and breakfast. A small cheap kettle would have been helpful to boil water for the coffee, even if it was on loan from reception. The coffee shop at the resort only opens at 9am which is too late ⏰ f your doing an early hike. Anyway we had brought a small gas burner for backup so we managed the coffee and boiled eggs.
