Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. 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...).

United KingdomOur stay at Lovedays Cottage in Painswick was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the cottage’s character, charm, and attention to detail. Nestled in the heart of the village, the location is ideal—peaceful yet just a short walk from the local shops, pubs, park and the beautiful St. Mary’s churchyard with its iconic yew trees. The cottage itself is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully decorated. It strikes the perfect balance between rustic charm and modern comfort, with everything you could need for a relaxing stay. The kitchen is well-equipped, the beds are incredibly comfortable, and every corner of the cottage feels warm and welcoming. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an authentic and cozy Cotswolds experience. We can’t wait to return. ❤️

United KingdomNo parking. The doorway was virtually blocked, the whole time, by two cars parked bumper to bumper and leaving virually no gap between them and the house, making it particularly difficult to bring in a pushchair and cases. There was little storage space for dry food, this was not important for us because of the short length of our stay, but it might have been for a longer stay.
A lovely old cottage, with period features. I particularly liked features, which indicated that the cottage had been inhabited for a vast number of years.

Painswick is a magic place and Lovedays Cottage was idyllic. It was lovely to have milk bread and eggs waiting for us on our arrival. We had everything that we needed. Also the instructions as to where to park was very useful as Painswick isn't the easiest place to park.
