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.).

It was beautiful, tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. The hosts made us feel very welcome and both the breakfasts and evening meal were freshly cooked and delicious. There is a comfortable lounge area with tea and coffee making facilities and an honesty bar, and it was lovely to relax there after dinner.

United KingdomWe had a bad time with ferry links and weather so didn’t get to enjoy our stay as much as we would have liked. Our hosts were amazing though and even gave us a lift to an alternative ferry route.
Carla and Chris are amazing hosts. Attentive but not overbearing. They have put so much into making this such a beautiful guest house and are clearly passionate about what they do.

Warm welcoming hosts - thank you Carla and Chris. Quirky decor and immaculately clean. Dinner was first class as Chris was a professional chef at several well-known restaurants. Dinner is cooked freshly to order within view. Breakfast also delicious.

United StatesNothing, this property is a role model for bed and breakfast at its very, very best.
A stunning property. We stayed in one of larger bedrooms and it was huge. We had a peek into one of the smaller bedrooms and they were still plenty big enough. The entire property is modern, beautifully decorated with very high quality finishes. Every detail has clearly been thought through, we wanted for nothing. The bed was huge and very, very comfortable. The internet worked very well. The lounge was lovely with excellent tea and coffee facilities, hot chocolate as well. A good range of alcoholic drinks were available for purchase. The included breakfast was excellent with four choices covering all tastes, light, vegetarian, hearty, etc. We had the additional dinner offered for purchase both nights of our stay and it was outstanding, again with four choices to cover all requirements. Chris is an outstanding chef. The hosts were exceptionally friendly and helpful, the property gave us all the privacy we desired, but it was also nice to chat to other guests at times in the lounge, a perfect balance. We visited Barra and Vatersay for the day, the ferry times work out very well, and the property is well situated to enjoy the Uists, or to travel onwards to Harris and Lewis which we did. This is hospitality at its best.

United StatesI did not like having to leave. The place was perfect.
We were using The Grianaig as a stopover after arriving on the ferry from the mainland, but in fact, it is a destination itself. Chris and Carla were wonderful. The home is cozy, modern, immaculately clean, and the beds were so comfortable that we didn't want to get up, but the smell of homemade bread coming from the kitchen took care of that. Chris is an accomplished chef, and his dinner was one of the best of our trip. They brought their experience of operating a restaurant in Cornwall to a charming house on the edge of the world, and their surprised guests are the beneficaries, Oh, and you'll leave your outdoor shoes in the foyer. No mud or sheep poo in these bedrooms!

Grianaig Guest House was the perfect place to stay on our trip to the Outer Hebrides. Carla and Chris were so friendly and welcoming and went out their way to accommodate our food choices and recommend places to visit. Our room was spotless and had everything you would need with loads of storage space, great views and beautifully decorated in a modern style. I can't recommend this highly enough and can't wait to return!
