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.).

AustraliaMy pillow was not comfortable at all - perhaps a look into latex pillows that retain shape might be suitable moving forward. The television did not turn on; the remote did not appear to be malfunctioning but the screen did not respond and there were no controls on the unit itself. Not a big issue but something to note nonetheless.
Food was terrific with a restaurant open later for travelling workers with odd hours. Although ear plugs were supplied, these were not needed as it was always quiet and private.

United KingdomDidn't like that it was above a pub and also on the corner where lots of people gathered after the pubs and bars closed, so was a little bit noisy.
Great location right opposite the beach and near lots of restaurant which made it easy to get dinner. Room was spacious and nice sized balcony.

New ZealandThere was a door and a window which opened out onto a patio, which was great, but I didn't feel safe leaving the window open at night. Slept with the air conditioner on at night. Not so great.
Quick check in, friendly receptionist and staff. Great bar and restaurant downstairs, so close to the beach, shops, coastal walks, clean bedroom, comfortable beds and an updated/modern bathroom, with underfloor heating.

New ZealandThe location has been tastefully renovated to a modern standard but if you were obsessed with the exterior of the building you might find it a bit dated.
The location was why we booked and it didn't disappoint. The check-in was very friendly and flexible to meet our situation, and our wifi signal was strong so I could work without an issue. Shower pressure was next level awesome and the on-site bar and restaurant is great.

CanadaThe only thing we didn't like was a 5:30 am alarm and evacuation notice. Luckily it was a false alarm.
The location was great. Right across the street from Bondi Beach. Although it is an old hotel the rooms are all renovated and very modern. Our room was a nice size and the bathroom was great. There is a really good restaurant/bar and even a bottle shop.
