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):
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.).

Tim is a great host. The location is close to the Bella Coola highway (actually a dirt road). The place is on the lake shore and the restaurant overlooks the beautiful and peaceful lake. Small but cozy room. Easy parking.

United StatesThe buildings are old and in need of refreshing, but the room was comfortable and the managers do wonders with what they have and their remote location.
Right on the lake and very quiet. The loons were fun to watch, and we were able to kayak right from the dock. The dinners were fantastic - worth the trip in itself. Our patio had a big screen that was needed!

CanadaThere really isn't anything worth complaining about. The buildings and rooms seem dated, but it's all part of the rural-resort atmosphere so I wouldn't say I didn't like it.
The staff were lovely and welcoming, and the dinner was excellent.

LuxembourgEagle's Nest is a small resort, situated at the shore of a small lake adjacent to a forest in the inland plateau just before/after the sporty part of Highway 20. Even if it might apear somehow old fashioned, the resort is in a good shape and well managed by Tim and his wife, who does a very good kitchen (both breakfast and dinner were perfect). Both are very professional and committed old school hosts who turn your stay into an unforgettable "souvenir".

United StatesRooms were dated and decor overall was quirky and would benefit from remodeling.
Excellent location and really good food and wine. Wildlife viewing was superb. We saw loons, eagles, ospreys, white pelicans and a very tame chipmunk. Outdoor seating areas were great and there was an excellent selection of books covering the history and wildlife of the area. Hosts were super helpful in suggesting things to do and providing directions. We went on the float plane tour of the Rainbow Range, Hunlen Falls and the Monarch Icefields which was amazing. Another interesting place is The Precipice Trail.

CanadaAnahim Lake is like a little piece of heaven on earth. The resort is so perfectly located. The service was exceptional and our stay was divine. The rooms are simple but very comfortable with everything that you need. Nothing could beat having a coffee and listening to the birds on the dock as the mist lifts off the lake.

IsraelThe showe door was not actually a door and it was not closed properly, on top of that it was a bit broken. Price of food and room didn't match what you get, old towels one was a bit thorn..
We stayed there only 1 night. The whole place looks like a ghost town (as do all the area from Williams lake to Bella coola. This resort has planty of potential but it seems like his good days are over. The main loby if high fashion decorated, with white maps and extravagant chandalir. But the food is average at best. I ate a very dried salmo next to some blanted vegetables and my son had Ribs that knew better days. The price unfortunately .Match the decoration not the food. The room was of very simple motel level with old towels and a little one small bottle of shampoo for both of us with no soap or conditioner. But all this I can understand since there are almost no tourists there and manny places so we told struggle. But the owners attitude could be nicer, warmer, hospitable and patient This is something early can be changed.

CanadaRoom was cramped. Bathroom had a plastic folding accordion door and was dated. Because of the remote location, we had dinner and breakfast on property. The food was good, but the prices reflect the remote location. Our room faced the lake, but a very ugly outbuilding (?!) blocked half of the view. We could hear almost everything from the rooms above, so I recommend paying more for the view and no footsteps.
Beautiful location on Anahim Lake. Dramatic dining room overlooking the lake. Peaceful and quiet. Lots of bird watching opportunities and fishing. Bring bug spray. Canoes available, but it was too windy for us to go out when we were there.

Canadathe room was not cleaned properly. there were clothes and personal hygiene items in the drawers. the satellite tv didn't work and he wouldn't even budge on the price to compensate that. so we couldn't even relax after our scary winter drive and cuddle and watch a show.
it was dark couldn't really see but it looked like it would be an amazing place in the summer with outdoor beauty.
