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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

United StatesNothing really though a screen on one window would be nice to permit opening at night
We stayed 3 nights and really enjoyed our visit. The owners Patrick and Sandrine are friendly and helpful an take great pride in their property and desire to provide exceptional service and amenities. The property is beautifully located just outside of town with lush grounds and a view of Mt Victoire. Pool was very cleaned and a delight during warm afternoons. Our room was very comfortable and well equipped for our stay with a mini fridge, coffee and tea. Makers etc. very quiet and peaceful within relatively easy walk to town for the reasonably fit with time to do so. Breakfast prepared by Sandrine was exceptional. With great variety of breads,fruit,cheese yogurt and homemade jams

AustraliaEverything was incredible - from the hosts communication, to the grounds, to our room. The one bedroom terrace was much bigger than pictured and had plenty of space. The grounds were immaculate and it made us fall in love with Aix that little bit more. Honestly a 5 star self-contained accomodation - don’t hesitate! Also we had a car and it was only 8 minutes drive to park in the city centre for reference on where this property is located.

We spend 3 wonderful days at Parenthese Saint Donat. The location is amazing, it feels like waking up in the middle of a park, with heated swimming pool as a bonus. :) Even if its not in the city center, it takes only 10 min to get there by car. If you love nature and enjoy staying in a quite, peaceful, beautiful place, you must try Parenthese. Breakfast prepare by Sandrine is just amazing, we had each morning a different breakfast, very balanced and very much french :).
