How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewDe Zomere B&B is absolutely beautiful - restored impeccably and run brilliantly by Frederik. The room, service and amenities were all wonderful!
Nothing - it was all great!

Verified reviewWe thought the breakfast was good and was a well balanced meal. Frederick made all the guests feel at home and provided us with some historical context. I thought the chocolates when arriving were a nice touch.

Verified reviewOver the years we have stayed in many hotels from large family holiday hotels to, in recent years, small and/or boutique hotels in several European countries but never anything to compare with De Zomere. This is an opportunity to stay in a piece of the town's history (one of the oldest buildings in Brugge) which has been tastefully and artistically adapted to a very high standard without losing or hiding the history and character of the property. Frederik is an excellent host who is keen for you to enjoy both the building and the town he grew up in; this is not so much a stay in an hotel as being a guest in someone's home (which, in Frederik's case, it is). We hope to return to Brugge and now would not even consider staying anywhere else.
Nothing to dislike, a very memorable and enjoyable stay.

Verified reviewThis is one of the most interesting and memorable small hotels I have visited (and we have visited many). The building is an old historic structure in the heart of Bruges very near the center. It has been artfully and thoughtfully renovated by the proprietor who gladly explained its history and its structural nature. In spite of its age, the rooms and bathrooms are up to date. Breakfast was pleasant and satisfying.
Loved it all.

Verified reviewEverything. As I said to Frederick the genial host, I've travelled extensively but this is the best place I have ever stayed in. A stunning property converted in the most tasteful and thoughtful way to an extremely high standard matched perfectly to the ancient charm. Frederick told us breakfast was served from 8 o'clock but as we were leaving early all was set at 6.30 and it was exceptional. The place is as close to perfection as you could wish for.
Absolutely nothing. And that we only stayed one night.

Verified reviewEverything about this B&B is excellent. The building is a beautiful piece of history in the middle of Bruges and there is so much attention to detail inside the B&B (most of it designed and made by the owner). Frederik was a memorable host - staying inside his childhood home and learning about it's history from him was very special. He was friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was delicious. The rooms were unbelievable - everything was super clean and the bed was really comfy. This has to be one of the best accommodations we have stayed in whilst on holiday.
Nothing!

Verified reviewIf you want a authentic location and building for your stay in Brugge, this is the place. If you want a large lobby and hotel bar, then maybe this is not a good choice. Our group loved it. You want an authentic place to stay in Brugge, stay here.

Verified reviewI have never stayed anywhere with such incredible attention to detail. The architecture, the artwork, the small decorations, the up cycling of used materials… the courtyard outside is a true haven and the rooms were beautiful and comfortable. One of the warmest and kindest hosts and a super friendly cat!
