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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

South AfricaThe floor needs a little attention, but the owners are planning a refurbishment over the winter, so this will be rectified.
Owners were lovely, exceptionally friendly. Breakfast was fabulous, fresh fruits, homemade breads and perfect portion sizes. My daughter loved the homemade pancakes. The rooms were fresh and clean, our deluxe suite was gorgeous. Well equipped.

United KingdomRegretted that I had only booked a couple of nights.
The Potting Shed proved an excellent stay in a very convenient location. A very warm welcome from Dave and AnnaMarie set the tone for the visit. Their suggestions were spot on and valued. The Studio (6) was roomy and spotlessly clean with a lovey comfortable veranda and view to the mountain behind the town. The Potting Shed is within easy walking distance of the Cliff Walk and the old harbour. There are plenty of places to eat in the town and one or two small interesting museums. The cliff walk is a must. There is a useful suggestions folder in the room. Hope to return to The Potting Shed in whale watching season. Diolch yn fawr Dave & AnnaMarie.

United KingdomNothing it was a fabulous find. We did find that on a Saturday the good restuarants were mostly fully booked so do pre book your evening meal, don't wing it like we did.
The breakfast was exceptional the best we have had throughout our stay. The variety of homemade goods at the table was delightful. Dave & Annamarie were perfect hosts, knowledgeable & passionate about the area. They provided us with great tips on restuarants and insight on things to do in and around Hermanus. Annamarie even provided me with her recipie for her delicious lemond curd that she serves with her breakfast pancakes. The room was comfortable and we had a good night's sleep.
