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.).

The hotel is located near the deepest lake in the region. Silence, mountains, splendor of rural landscapes - all this will satisfy both tourism enthusiasts and deep romantics seeking peace and solitude.The design of the rooms, the quality of bed linen, shower products and even the choice of tea and coffee - everything is thought out to the smallest detail, everything is of excellent quality.Special thanks to the service staff. It’s hard to imagine more friendly, welcoming people, ready to help with everything.I was also very impressed by the rich and delicious breakfasts.All of the above left the most pleasant memories and makes us want to definitely return.

Absolutely superb accommodation, lived up to our expectations. You can see why they won the Four in a Bed TV show. The bed was more comfortable than my own bed at home. Breakfast selection and choice was first class, the surroundings beautiful.

United KingdomCouldn’t find any fault really!
Very modern, definitely the nicest place we’ve stayed in the lakes. The staff were very helpful and catered for us as we are vegan- they even had vegan cake for us- dairy free milk, yoghurt, vegan sausages. It was lovely to stay somewhere we could actually eat the breakfast. All the food was amazing too. They had a well stocked bar, lovely communal spaces and was generally very easy to find. We loved the private outdoor space too.

United KingdomThe breakfast was excellent, plenty of choices. The location was tranquille, it suited our needs for the type of break we wanted. The room called "Stone" was modern & stylish, well thought out, definately value for money. Had folding door onto a stoned patio area, 2 deck chairs to use in a little sun trap. Very relaxing, for mid April my wife I caught the sun in only sitting out for a few hours. It will be even better in mid summer. Easy access to restaurants in Riverglass & Gosforth within 15 minutes drive or less respectively.

FijiWorthy of all the excellent reviews- we actually booked our room at short notice as an extension of our honeymoon and we weren't really sure what to expect but we were blown away. The guesthouse is meticulously designed with comfort, ethical (and local) sourcing of quality products and modern features at its heart. The photos can't quite do justice to just how special it felt inside! We would love to return and have advised our family and friends to consider a trip!

United KingdomWhere do I start, everything about this place was amazing! The view from our bed was insane. Could see the sunset and watch the alpacas. The food was delicious and all the little touches around the place made our stay even more special. Relaxing in the hot tub after exploring the lakes was the perfect end to the evening. Faith, David and all the other staff here were super friendly and helpful. I cannot recommend this place enough!
