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.).

AustraliaWe chose this hotel knowing it had an on-site restaurant however the meals could have been of better standard considering the pricing. The hotel is isolated for travellers from any close shopping centre and alternate restaurants within walking area. Rest rooms for visitors not booked in as guests are only in the bar region. When this is closed it limits facilities for those needing a rest room, such as at the breakfast room or in our case when our room had plumbing issues.
Room was good and the staff very helpful and friendly. We had a plumbing issue and this was attended to and fixed within minutes of reporting. The courtyard and garden is a lovely resting spot.

AustraliaThe place has a slightly dated appearance that I thought was charming, but might not appeal to those looking for a more modern vibe.
Very large, well-appointed room. The complementary breakfast was nice - pretty standard buffet options, but it worked well for me! 24-hour room service (although after-hours options are limited). Staff were lovely and helpful.

AustraliaGenerally a bit tired and needs renovating. Small room (standard queen) with fridge and kettle etc inside the wardrobe because there was no space. Terrible view! Looked out onto all the air con vents which hummed all night. Could do with a sheer curtain, would at least hide the view.
Staff were accommodating and gave us a late check out on request (+1 hour). Secure parking ($15)

AustraliaThe room (we stayed in a loft room) was spacious and well appointed. The bed was comfortable. Location is close to the city - no need to drive and not far from the Lonsdale St eateries. The War Memorial is an easy walk. A good breakfast.

AustraliaThe receptionist didn't allow me to use the microwave to heat the food which I had as a takeaway from outside quoting that it could be poisonous. Hearing her was making me sick how one can be so robotic at operations and can't understand that 40-50 seconds of usage of the microwave can save someone's night to have a dinner in peace. Otherwise, everything else was good.
Ease of getting around the city as the location of the hotel is very central.

AustraliaThe layout of the hotel was a little confusing to start with, and I needed some direction from the staff. I also welcomed the map that was shared with me.
I spent two nights at this comfortable, well-located hotel. It is obviously an older hotel and the furnishings reflected this, but it had a lovely atmosphere. My room was spacious with a very comfy bed. Everything was clean and tidy. There was a little courtyard outside my room and while it was a little untidy (leaves and twigs dropped from the tree and some large spiderwebs) I enjoyed sitting out after a little clean-up . All of the staff, from the young ladies at the front desk to the cleaner and room service staff, were welcoming and friendly. The buffet breakfast was delicious.
