We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

ItalyThe room was quite compact, and the gabled ceiling a bit risky for heads. But it all added to the charm!
We loved the view over the Ness river from our room, the wonderful breakfast and charming hosts. Very cozy and clean place. Great location to start walks and explore Inverness and surrounds. The botanic garden across the river is an absolute jewel, a must visit for anyone who enjoys flowers and gardening, within walking distance. Very peaceful and quiet, almost rural setting.

ChinaThe bathroom is a bit small. The house number is not very obvious, it's a bit difficult to find.
The room's environment is very good! The room is quite spacious. The courtyard is close to the river, and the scenery is beautiful. The breakfast was very good. There are parking spaces in the yard.

United KingdomThin walls and creaky doors did meant that everything outside our room was heard, but it didn't ruin the experience
The hostess/owner (I regret not getting her name) was an absolute delight. Welcoming from the very start, pleasant, funny. Everything you would want. The room was nice. There was some building work going on, but it stopped very early so never disturbed.

United StatesSink and shower did not drain well (at the end of a 5-minute shower, water pooled 1-2 inches high). Staff entered our room when we were away to do room service, but we were not notified beforehand that they would enter our room. The midnight curfew was not suitable for adults. No food was allowed in our bedroom which was challenging since we had snacks that we had hoped to enjoy while there but didn't get to. Although the hostess was very helpful with good recommendations and intentions, she had an assertive and unyielding approach during our conversations and interactions.
Booked for 2 nights. Received a warm welcome from staff upon arrival. Host was tender-spirited. Room and bathroom area was cozy for 3 guests, but orderly and clean. Beds were superbly comfortable and breakfasts were also tasty with a wide variety of foods. Other guests were quiet and respectful. Facility was conveniently located in beautiful Inverness.

United KingdomA suggestion - The drive down the side of the house to the parking at the back of the was very tight. Luckily I was able to park my car at the front when we returned in the evening. Maybe placing some parking markers (plaques on the fence marking parking bays) at the front would make sure fellow guests parked more sensibly allowing more cars to park at the front.
The owners were so lovely and keen to make our stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. Carried in our luggage, gave us their own decaff coffee and offered their local knowledge. The rooms were spotless and large. The garden backed on to the River Ness and it was so beautiful and tranquil. The room with bed and breakfast was great value, especially for Inverness. The breakfast was lovely and they made us fresh toast and eggs cooked however we wished, with a full continental selection and some hot food choices as well. We had the window table on a beautiful sunny morning and we were made to feel thoroughly spoilt.
