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 reviewEverything was great. The hosts are charming and very accommodating. The location is very good and quiet with restaurants and great walks nearby. The house and rooms are charming and tastefully decorated and retain that old manor atmosphere. The bathroom was big with a great shower. The room bright and the bed very comfortable. The breakfast is excellent with fresh local produce. The evening meal option is an absolute must as the host is a well known chef and is a master at his skill. The only regret we have is to have missed the evening meal on our first night there.
Nothing.

Verified reviewCathie and Pierre were delightful hosts, making us feel at home in their magnificent home in such a beautiful setting. We loved sitting in the garden, and even managed the first fresh swim of the season in the pool. Our room was serene and the view gorgeous. Breakfast was great. A dinner prepared by Pierre is definitely worth accepting. We were able to store our bikes safely in the garage. A really special place to stay.

Verified reviewThe house is incredibly beautiful, both inside and outside. The hosts are absolute gems, and despite my late arrival and short noticed, offered a delicious dinner. The breakfast was of the same standard, with home baked items, home made marmelade and honey (and more). Fantastic.
I would have liked to stay much longer!

Verified reviewGreat dinner and breakfast, wonderful host.
Maybe a lack of privacy due to the old doors and bathroom across the hall.

Verified reviewWe thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay and were made welcome when we arrived. The room was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble for our hosts. We booked for dinner and could not have been more pleased. The meal was delicious as was the breakfast. It is such a beautiful part of France. We highly recommend this property.

Verified reviewBeautiful spot in an old (18th century, I believe) farmhouse adjacent to an old small castle. Rooms in the original style but with modern amenities. Super nice and welcoming hosts and delicious breakfast. Some nice nature to explore nearby. The larger room we had felt like a romantic getaway room.
Toilets have no windows to the outside or vent, however, minor issue.

Verified reviewAn exceptionally beautiful chambre d'hôte and a genuinely warm welcome from our hosts. We were also offered a room upgrade. Breakfast was delicious, with home-made almond cake which we enjoyed around the table with very interesting company.
It was perfect, I can't think of anything.

Verified reviewLovely house in a fantastic quiet location. Cathie & Pierre were exceptional hosts and nothing was too much trouble. The breakfasts were lovely and the meals in the evening were fantastic. Pierre is a wonderful chef and Cathie a great host, a superb team. We stayed six nights with Pierre & Cathie and were using the location as a base for part of our cycling holiday which worked really well. The scenery in the area is beautiful and the village is lovely and quiet. I’ve never given a 10 out of 10 review before but this was it for us as it couldn’t have been any better.
Nothing!
