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.).

IrelandWhile there is a lovely forest behind the chateau , there is also a fairly unattractive suburban industrial estate and roads below it. Weather was bad during our stay (not hotel’s fault) and so we would have enjoyed a lounge or sitting area for guests to use in daytime. However other than a small very dark bar, there was none. Dinner was poor quality-not what we expected. In fairness when we complained we were not charged for one main course. As usual, poor bedside reading light. Staff were lovely but almost all seemed new and inexperienced. It felt as though the hotel had recently changed hands (?) and that this was a brand new team.
Beautiful building and grounds. Lovely pool and terrace. Beautiful room, spotlessly clean. Lovely dining room. Good wine at fair prices. Good breakfast. Very nice staff- but inexperienced.

United KingdomThe restaurant seems to be having some trouble with deciding exactly what it wants to serve - it has tried to do over-thought-out 'modern' dishes at high cost; this visit the menu was simpler, but still heavy-handed - I hope it will work out what it wants to be soon.
Candie is a regular stop for us en route to Italy, and it never disappoints. The rooms are period-decorated, very comfortable and with all your favourite extras - Nespresso machine, good toiletries and plenty of hangers (not usual in many French hotels!). The main chateau has the larger rooms. Set above the city of Chambery, the views are spectacular and it is very quiet. There is a lovely swimming pool and walks through the extensive grounds is a real pleasure after a long day in the car. All the staff are friendly and very helpful.

United StatesSpiders galore. I can't stress this enough. If you don't like bugs or spiders this place is not for you. Our room had more spiders and spider webs than I could possible express. Otherwise, the cleanliness of the room, bed, bathroom, etc was superb, but I couldn't help but be astounded by the amount of large spiders. I asked our friends in another room and they had the same experience. It mostly freaked me out because if there are spiders that large it means that something bigger than them is there to eat them......so anyways, fabulous stay, but not for those who have a big fear of bugs and spiders.
What a gorgeous hotel! Absolutely STUNNNING hotel, beautiful amenities, views, and general posture of the hotel. Complimentary breakfast which was a nice surprise. Our room was upgraded to a suite which was very lovely. Staff is friendly and speak English to help with anything you might need. I would absolutely recommend renting a car.

United KingdomThe service at dinner was exceptionally slow and we had to chase our food and drinks several times. There was no milk at breakfast as the delivery hadn’t turned up! We mentioned this at check out and the receptionist immediately rebated the cost of the bottle of wine we had at dinner the previous night.
Return visit to a very pleasant hotel which is a good stopping point on the way home from Italy

SwitzerlandSwimming pool. Staff mostly friendly. Location / lots of space
Great location and property. Nice swimming pool. Room we stayed was average (Deluxe room) no view, very hot ( no air condition, fan provided ), quite dark. Property could do with a bit more care. Food is below expectations for a 4*, gastronomic experience that I’d advertised is lacking, limited menu, same for lunch/dinner, and subsequent days, bland with little flavor. Salad we ordered for lunch had lots of sand/grit.
