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.).

United KingdomNothing. Only the rain!
The Coach house is excellent! It had everything and more to make our stay enjoyable. It was like coming home, so welcoming. Sadly, the rain stopped us, enjoying the super garden. Lisa was super. No question was too much, very helpful, and accommodating. Little things left for us on arrival. It really was much appreciated. I'd love to stay again.

Perfect location for us visiting family who live less than 10 minutes away. The open plan nature of the kitchen / living / dining area was perfect for staying with 2 young children and Lisa was friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe only concern was where the bathroom was, Kids had to come through our bedroom to go to the toilet when we were asleep. apart from that everything else was perfect.
We liked the grounds and the garden, but couldn't spend any time out there as the weather was bad. it was peaceful and quiet. the supply of board games and outdoor games was a really good idea and we had fun playing these. The range of TV programmes was also great to have, you do not get these in some hotel rooms.

United KingdomThere was nothing. From what the kids told me, it was absolutely perfect.
The owner, Lisa, was gorgeous. My two grown up children stayed there as they were attending a wedding 3 miles away. Sadly my Mum and I were unable to join them as my Mum was poorly. My two children got there very late after travelling up from London and Lisa really looked after them, even providing them with some food and prosecco and was so kind and lovely. They were so excited to tell me all about Lisa, her accommodation and of course, the lovely wedding. We would all love to come and stay when Mum gets better as it sounded so lovely.

United KingdomGarden has a beautiful pond with no railings - which was fine for our two kids as they are old enough to know not to go too close, but perhaps not perfect for really new toddlers.
Flat is comfy, clean, warm, well-appointed with great facilities, a VERY nice collection of stuff on arrival (prosecco, milk, bread, teabags etc.). Lovely big garden shared with the main house. Friendly, helpful, respectful hosts. Walking distance from a delightful, cheap, friendly pub with good pub food (the Sebastopol Inn; you should go).
