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 KingdomWe don't there was anything
We were wowed from the get go.- well done Elephant View Shepherds Hut. We hadn't realised until seeing their website that this is an award winning gem so we are.very lucky to have had the opportunity to stay here. We without a shadow of a doubt think this is worth every award. Our stay was for 2 nights (we wish it was for longer) for our base camp hiking trip up Mt.Snowdon. It was glamping with every little detail thought about and it made it feel extra homely and cosy...guest basket, fresh milk, all the essentials for a stay. The instructions were detailed and super helpful although we are gutted our day trekking was so long.we didn't even use the hot tub or pizza fire. it was super clean (as a business owner of a cleaning company myself.and cleaning my own Airbnb's - I should know). And how could we forget to mention the absolutely stunning views of the sky at night, down to the friendly neighbors (sheep) greeting you in the mornings and the gorgeous kitted-out outdoor space. Absolutely dreamy stay - thank you X Nat.& Tom,.soon to be regular visitors .

United KingdomThe only thing worth noting was that the cabin gets very warm in hot weather. If the weather is going to be above mid 20s (c) then I would recommend packing a fan which would have made sleeping much for comfortable.
Well situated property for exploring north wales and Snowdonia National park. The host provided a number of thoughtful touches such as dressing gowns, welcome drinks, wood for the fire and marshmallows for toasting. We had such a lovely time and the cabin provided just the cozy romantic get away that we needed to retreat back too after a days hiking and exploring. The pizza oven and hot tub were easy to use and even more enjoyable after a day of mountain climbing. We would love to stay again and would recommend to any couple looking for a north wales retreat.

United KingdomSuch a beautiful place. Had the best time here, did not want to leave. Spent the entire first day of our trip just relaxing at the hut and all the amenities made it 10x better the pizza oven and the hot tub and just the view was so peaceful. Inside the hut is also very clean and cosy I loved it. Could not have had a better host was so helpful and kind.
