How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewA lovely property in a nice, quiet village. The owners, Bart & Karin, were super friendly, very good company and an absolute mine of interesting information and anecdotes. The room was basic but very comfortable and perfect for my needs. Parking onsite, a lovely garden to relax in with a beer and great food - what more could you ask for!
Nothing, everything was perfect.

Verified reviewWe had a great stay at 14-18 Somme Chambres. The highlight was the 1/2 day guided tour with Bart who did a lot of research beforehand to help me understand where my great uncle had fought and died. Would definitely recommend.

Verified reviewIt was a real home from home. Karen and Bart were so friendly and helpful. It was lovely to sit and chat with them and others in the house. Their knowledge of the WW1 history and the area was amazing and Bart was brilliant at finding information about my family history. A very special stay, thank you.

Verified reviewBart & Karen where so nice, kind, knowledgeable. From the daily breakfast to a delicious supper each evening. Went on a guided tour with Bart & he was so awesome in driving me and showing me what happened at the Battle of the Somme! One evening Karen helped me to track down info regarding my late Aunt from Scotland. Cool. Finally, the morning I left Bart went out of his way to give me a lift back to the Albert train station!

Verified reviewKaren and Bart were very friendly, helpful, humorous and knowledgeable hosts. Genuine interest in the story of my Great Uncle, missing in action on the first day of the Battle of the Somme 1916. I learnt a lot on my brief visit and remain grateful, a lot more than just a place to stay.

Verified reviewBart and Karen have created a beautiful spot for travellers to find rest and comfort on their journey through the Somme area. Always up for a chat and providing incredible wisdom on the region (including its long history), they both made our stay very special. Could not recommend enough and we hope to be back soon. Thank you Karen and Bart for giving us a home away from home

Verified reviewIf you visiting this part if France, then it is likely that you have an interest in WWI ~ therefore I thoroughly recommend staying at “14-18 Somme Chambres”. It is an excellent location for WWI history and one of your hosts, Bart, is a living encyclopedia on the subject. I stayed with Bart and Karen at 14-18 Somme Chambres for one night and was welcomed like a long lost relative into their wonderful accommodation. I enjoyed a great breakfast and dinner with them and in the evening spent time with them and a couple of other guests out in the garden. Karen is a gem; she went above and beyond to help me break through a language barrier to sort out a logistical issue I had prior to my visit ~ I remain thankful for that. Indeed, make 14-18 Somme Chambres part of your Somme itinerary, you will not be disappointed.
