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 reviewThis place is so wonderful! The staff, the location, the room...it is amazing! Even the guests were so friendly and nice. We met people of all ages here. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. We were busy hiking everyday and it was so nice to come back to a cozy place at the end of the day. After hours and hours of hiking each day, the best part was we didn't have to walk far to go to dinner...practically just outside the hotel on the main street is the night market with tons of food stands of delicious food. A huge variety and wonderful! We loved our routine every night of coming home and going to dinner right outside of the hotel. The staff here is exceptionally wonderful. Ralph is such a great, fun, kind, friendly guy. Our 7 year old daughter liked making friends with him. The perfect staff team is complete with (Nia- not sure how to spell her name) who is practically your personal travel planner. Out of our entire trip, there was no other hotel who did so much for their guests than this one! Ralph and Nia organized everything for us! She sat down for so long and worked out every single detail of our daily schedule in the parks, bought the tickets, gave us maps, told us where to go, everything! I am amazed that they do this for every single one of their guests! Wow! That takes a lot of patience and a lot of time! You all do it wonderfully! We loved the decorations in this hotel. The wood made us feel like we were in a mountain retreat somewhere. It was all perfect. Thank you so much for everything! When we come back to Zhangjiajie one day, we will definitely stay at this place. It was one of the highlights of our trip! With love from Christian, Lisa and Haven

Verified reviewReally enjoyed my stay and it exceeded my expectations. I came without a strict plan, but Ralph helped me plan my journey in Zhangjiajie park. Before my arrival I was a bit worried with how I'm going to get there from a train station. Staff was very proactive and helped me book a taxi even before my arrival. I can recommend this place to anyone especially international travelers.
