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 KingdomThis property was very comfortable, stunning location and the little extras of fresh eggs, bread and milk on arrival was a lovely gesture. Even our young children loved their stay here and now know how to play dominoes after discovering the games. Would definitely recommend. The owners are a lovely couple that made us feel so welcome.

What a treat it was to find a welcome food package when we arrived. It's the little touches that make a huge difference. We had a very comfortable stay in your beautiful home, for the weekend, we had everything we needed and more. We would love to return to your home in the future.

United KingdomWe had everything we needed and had no complaints.
We really enjoyed our three day stay at this lovely property. The accommodation is just as described with space to park one car on the driveway and further parking available on the quiet street for other vehicles. Everything in the house is top quality, especially the beds as we all had excellent nights sleep. Cleanliness throughout was to a very high standard. The kitchen and dining area was a good size for our party of five adults and one two year old. A high chair was provided and this again was of top quality. The hosts were friendly and available but not intrusive. Each bedroom had en-suite facilities which was a real bonus. Situated on a quiet street in a rural village with easy access to a children's play area which our granddaughter loved. It's a short distance by car to Easingwold if you need provisions, take-aways etc. We used the Rawcliffe Bar Park and Ride a few miles down the A19 to access York. We also spent a very interesting morning at the York Bird of Prey Centre which is fascinating and has knowledgeable, humorous and helpful staff. We thoroughly recommend this property.

United KingdomNothing. The accommodation is exceptional. If any property ever deserved a nailed on 5 star review rating, this is it.
The property owners made themselves available to hand over the keys on arrival and were always quick to respond in any communication. Everything was very comfortable (particularly the beds). All bedrooms are a good size with a good en suite. We like to be able to cook properly, if we wish to while away and all the equipment etc was to an excellent standard and enabled us to do so. I cannot speak highly enough of this property. We would certainly book again without hesitation if staying in the area.
