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...).

BelgiumThe fact that linen is an extra cost and expensive. I paid 45 eur for 3 persons. If you stay just one night like I did it increases too much the cost of the stay. Linen has to be included!!!
The cottages are cozy and perfectly clean.

RomaniaAt the reservation, it is not mentioned that you have to pay extra for bed linen and you have to clean like a professional after your stay, otherwise you have to pay quite a lot for cleaning service. Should be all mentioned before!

NetherlandsDetails could have been better. Bed linnen rental is fine, but was not mentioned I believe on the front page of booking.com. Ventilation of the shed is fine but difficult if you just had a sauna and want to make a fire. Basically, you'd have to choose between the two.
Good location, chalets were well stocked, very clean. Even the fireplace was clean. Very good, detailed information about what to do and who to contact for safaris. Ideal for the traveler who likes to arrange things by itself. For its price it is very good.

NorwayHad to pay extra for everything, like beddings, cleaning.. Shower could use a little upgrade with floor feeling like it could fall down. The little hut was in the middle of a parking place.
It was nice to have a sauna, a fireplace and a nice little kitchenette. Parking right outside the door Walking distance to the few things around the village

AustraliaI felt the value for money was lacking. For AUD $200+ per night you had to provide your own linen and towels and do the final cleaning of the chalet or else pay extra. The cleaning supplies were lacking and the vacuum was broken and very difficult to use. If the owners want guests to clean they need to provide all the necessary equipment in good working order.
Good location, cozy inside with good heating. The owner kindly let us have towels and bed linen free of charge.

QatarWorst experience ever had in Finland. We drove all the way from Ivalo to this place. Arrived late around 9 pm. After arriving I called the number that was given to me through email and booking.com. It was off and it was too cold for us due to snow. I got fully lost with my family without knowing what to do as the reservation office was closed without anyone. I knocked at house no 13 (he was very kind) and someone helped me to call a lady from the guesthouse. The lady appeared and charged me with a very very Rude attitude and asked me why did I knock house no 13 as if I knew her phone no. She was saying the phone no which I tried with it's not working for more than a year but I got that dead no. After driving almost 7 hours we didn't expect to have such rude, unpleasant. and unprofessional welcome. Even I paid for another booking there, we are not going back. Too much negativity to absorb. If you can't welcome your guests just don't put it for booking. We really had a hard time with 2 kids with us. Oh one more thing, they charged me 60 euros for linen and towels but while putting them on bed we found long hairs of others. Disgusting. And, they are very strict about charging for cleaning pricing.

Norway- so many rules and threats posted in almost every wall/ door of the accomodation. It is ridiculous. Makes it very uncomfortable - they expect the guest to clean when the room they rent is not really that clean. Stains on the bed cover - you have to pay for the towels and sheets -they left us a very filthy mop. I had to complain so i can clean the place before we leave - the wifi is not working. I informed them and they responded with an instructions how to connect it. I know how to connect my phone to a Wi-Fi
