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...).

AustraliaAbsolutely nothing - it was perfect! We were sorry we couldn't stay longer and will most definitely book again when we next journey to Wanaka.
Our hosts were fantastic - friendly, helpful and extremely easy to get along with. The location was very handy and we were able to walk into town. The room was beautifully presented and had everything we needed. We enjoyed a very satisfying homemade breakfast before our departure - wonderful local fruit in the home made jam etc.

AustraliaMy husband and I were in town for a wedding. We asked for a late check out so we could enjoy a sleep in as we were away from our busy lives and 3 children. We were asked why we wanted a late check out. It felt like we were staying with our parents. We didn't take up the offer of breakfast as didn't need the small talk on our holiday. The whole experience was awkward and we felt like the listing wasn't clear about bc we wouldn't have booked had we known we were in a room in someone's house, needing to take our shoes off on entry, and sneak in late a night so we didn't wake anyone.
The room was clean and spacious. It wasn't clear enough in the listing that we were literally staying in a room in within the hosts house.

United StatesWe very much felt like we were staying in a bedroom in somebody’s house. Our bed was under the low point of a slanted roof and my partner still has marks on his head from standing up from rested position. Having to remove our shoes upon entering the house was annoying. Breakfasts of yogurt and cereal were good but could have been more varied with some egg choices, pancakes etc.
Walkable to town, very friendly and helpful hosts, comfortable bed and good shower

NetherlandsAlmost everything. The owners were weird. We didn’t feel comfortable and welcomed. This is definitely not a place for people who want great hospitality. No fun.
Almost nothing. It’s a B&B in a residential area.

Australia1) Regular check-in time is 4-6pm. 2) No daily housekeeping, as advertised. 3) No free toiletries, as advertised. 4) No concierge service, as advertised. 5) No tour desk, ad advertised. 6) No desk, as advertised. 7) Pictures in the advertisement are misleading. You only have use of the room you are staying in, not the other facilities - loungeroom, courtyard, and BBQ area. It is the owner’s private home, and they use those areas themselves as well as closing the access door early in the evening. 8) Rooms are not soundproofed as advertised. Bedrooms on second level above the kitchen and loungeroom area. Old creaky house so you can hear every noise. Owners had guests over for dinner one of the nights we stayed. It was very noisy the entire time until late at night. 9) Two windows - one faced the clothesline. I had to keep the blinds drawn for privacy. 10) Breakfast time not flexible or relaxing. We were given two breakfast time options, 8:30am or 9am, no exceptions. They rushed us so they could clear the table quickly and "get on with their day" as they quoted, which consisted of pottering around the house. If you are not there at exactly 9am, they'll knock on your door calling out for you to come down. The breakfast was continental – toast, fruit, and yogurt. A full breakfast would have been appropriate considering the cost of the room. We had to sit with them and were told where to sit – awkward! Not every guest likes conversation in the mornings when they are on holiday and tired from traveling, especially when one of the owners likes to express their racist political views. 11) Only x2 mugs and teaspoons were supplied in the room. No cutlery, plates, or bowls. When asked for a plate and knife we were questioned why. On our second day, we asked for x2 clean mugs we were questioned again.
Room was comfortable and clean
