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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

It wasn't a problem for us, but there is no elevator ... they offered us a room on the first floor if we couldn't manage the stairs - which were nice and wide, so I easily carried up 2 suitcases at once.
While this property was located in Kennebunk, it was within easy walking distance of Kennebunkport's Harbor Square. They had an excellent free breakfast - including waffles homemade by a very friendly lady in the kitchen. There's also a great French cafe right across the street: Mornings in Paris. Fortunately there was little traffic during our out-of-season visit ... that said, this property is easy to get to from the west and north - without having to negotiate delays through "downtown" Kennebunkport, which can get congested.

Location was perfect! Steps away from Dock Square. And a short drive to Ogunquit, Perkins Cove, York, and Freeport. The bed was one of the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in. The inn was spotless. And the staff was very helpful and friendly, especially Sophie at the front desk, Linda in the dining room, and the Manager, Colleen. We will definitely stay here on future trips to Kennebunkport!

Shower was good, but small. The area with the sink, outside the shower area, was a good size.
The location is excellent. You can walk to resturants, shops or stroll along the ocean. Waffles for breakfast. Staff extremely friendly.

The toaster was a little wonky--I had my English muffin in for 10 minutes and it only toasted on one side. I even switched toasters at one point. I think they need a sign: "Rotate your toast."
The King's Port is right in the heart of Kennebunkport. After a 10 hour drive, it was great to be able to park and walk to the shops and dinner. Breakfast was excellent--a nice choice of pastries, yogurt, and fruit.

We only stayed two nights. I was determined to compare the Eggs Benedict at Mike's All Day Breakfast and the Maine Diner so I had to forgo the Belgian Waffle's offered by King's Port Inn. They smelled and looked delicious.
The King's Port Inn is very conveniently located at Kennebunkport's Dock Square. We often visit Kennebunkport in mid spring to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This was the first time we stayed at King's Port Inn. Our room was immaculate and all of the staff we encountered were cordial, helpful and informative. One of our favorite stops, Ryan's Corner House Pub is just across the street. We enjoyed a Guinness with the fish and chips there. We've enjoyed meals at Hurricane's, Alison's, Federal Jack's and The Clam Shack, which are all just a few minute's walk from our hotel room door.
