Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

New ZealandThere was absolutely nothing to not like. Ticked all the boxes and more!
It was a real treat to have separate bedrooms giving our daughters some space as they usually share. The flat is set up so homely with everything you could need or want along with extras going above and beyond. The kitchen had basic food supplies and bonus snacks our girls enjoyed. The beds were comfy, and the flat was cosy. We love how close it was to restaurants, beach, mall and the competition swimming pool was only 8 minute drive away. Crystal the host was so so lovely, as she came to our rescue when our broke down short distance from leaving the property. It was cold and we were tired from busy weekend and not experienced such a breakdown. Crystal came roadside, took us to mechanic where car got towed, then very kindly took our family to a motel while our car got repaired the next day. Car repiared 5pm next day and we were home 9.30pm. Forever grateful for your kindness! Thank you very much.

AustraliaSome noise from upstairs but didn’t bother us
Spacious, comfortable 3 bedroom apartment for the 2 adults and 3 kids. It has everything we needed — felt spoilt with the snacks upon arrival. There was a portable projector in one of the kids rooms which was a real treat - you can watch Netflix on it. There was washing powder, spare toiletries, fluffy towels, washing machine and dryer plus a dishwasher. A couple mins walk to the beach. There is a stream on the property that’s home to a number of huge eels which kept the kids busy plus the ducks and ducklings. It was a real treat. My son also used the pool with the hosts kids. Everything was awesome. The hosts were so nice and welcoming. We had a rental car, parking was easy and supermarkets were 5-10mins drive away. It’s about 40mins to the airport.
