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.).

Really enjoyed our stay. The quality of the bedding and room facilities were of a high standard. We stayed in room 5 which had a good view and was just the right size. The information within the room was well thought out and clear. Lastly both felt the shower was one of the best.

CanadaI cannot think of anything negative.
No breakfast at the hotel. They own a restaurant in town where one gets a 10 discount. The room itself was very attractively decorated with unique lighting. The bed was very comfortable and impressive. Great shower with all the shampoo, conditioner, body wash included..there was also a very well appointed lounge with large tv and a second room with a large beer/wine cooler and mixers and appropriate beverage glasses. They even provided beach towels for the beach 5 minutes away.

United KingdomI do quite like a reception and person on site which this lacked. I’d also assumed their bar was attached to the hotel as I’d misinterpreted the marketing in their literature but didn’t realise it was elsewhere in the town. We were a bit disappointed as had hoped to pop in for a drink without having to go off site, before heading off for our spa afternoon
Very attractive place to stay and liked the little touches like honesty bar and free fresh milk. They also put up a lovely happy birthday banner over the bed as it was my and my daughter’s birthday

SpainThere wasn't breakfast on offer.
The decor and space in the house was fantastic and surprising. There were no staff on site but that made the place feel like an apartment rather than a hotel.

United KingdomEverything was fabulous, no issues at all but our room was at the top of two flights of stairs (hence the views).
We managed to book the penthouse room (7) so had fabulous views over the harbour. The room was extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated with good quality bedding and very comfy bed. There was plenty of storage space and lots of surface areas so really easy to organise ourselves. The room information was extremely comprehensive and explained there was a fridge in the dining room for clients' use, this was really useful and also contained fresh milk if required. Breakfast wasn't included which was made clear when booking but that wasn't an issue as it was easy to cater for ourselves and there were plenty of cafes in Falmouth. The location was convenient for, about 10 minute walk from the town.

United KingdomThere was nothing we did not like, PERFECTION!
Well what can I say, we were blown away to be honest. The guest house is beautifully styled, it was the little details that made it shine. There was also a guest lounge and guest dining area with an honest open bar which was a nice touch. Our room had a amazing view of the seaside, with a bath, the best power shower and the most comfortable bed I think I’ve slept on. We stayed a few nights and each day our room was cleaned and looked spotless when returning to the room. The owner was wonderful, such a lovely person and you can see the love she has put into this property. Very welcoming and helpful. Also fantastic location 8-10mins walk to the centre of Falmouth. If you are visiting Falmouth then you must stay at the Highcliffe Guest house, you will not regret it.
