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 were there for a wedding in the area so it was very convenient. Didn't see any staff however the text we received prior to arrival and hand written notes giving us tips on where to go, what to see and where to eat were very much appreciated and lovely. Having freshly squeezed juice and milk in the fridge upon arrival was appreciated.

AustraliaThere was a minor issue post check out that I felt could have been handled better communication wise, but it was resolved in the end with no further issues, and it didn't take away from how perfect the rest of everything was.
The location of Mt Lofty was the first selling point to me, and the peace & serenity of being in the hills away from all the traffic and noise confirmed how perfect the location was. The privacy was fantastic - even though it was a separate studio on the main property just down from the main house, you were completely excluded and couldn't hear anything or anyone else. The amenities & comforts included in the accommodation were spot on for the value of money we paid for the one night, and the location of the stay in relation to the places we visited while there was great, everything was either walking distance or less than 30 min drive away.

AustraliaBe aware that the route from the studio to the spa there is a slight incline and it's muddy. (it was fine for us but we did wonder how others may find it) My suggestion would be maybe to pave it or add some stepping stones etc to avoid getting muddy and/or slipping, especially on the way back up to the studio. The jacuzzi did have a slight issue the following day where it hadn't heated up, but K was 'on to it' immediately and sent someone to come and fix it. It did take around an hour to heat up, but we were very grateful at how quick she resolved the issue for us.
This little studio is tucked away on the owner's property. The lady owner kindly allowed us to drop our car off earlier then the 3pm check in, go to lunch and return to a hot jacuzzi and a roaring fire. K gave us a run down of the property's features, and then left us to it. The outside spa was delightful, both during the day and night. The king size bed was comfy, the kitchenette had a good size fridge, had crockery etc supplied and acrylic champagne glasses (for spa safety). The bathroom was large and lovely. Some travellers may be expecting all the 'freebies' that come with traditional BnB's, but this property offers just the basics (tea, coffee, milk, water and OJ). Because I had read previous reviews, I was aware of this and also the fact that you cant cook in this studio (which was fine with us; we just packed our own supplies and a camp gas burner and cooked our bacon and eggs outside) K was very attentive, great with messages and eager to please.

AustraliaMy only objection was that the room was quite cold unless the fire was burning.
We enjoyed a lovely stay for our anniversary and it was the perfect quiet oasis whilst we escaped our busy toddler for a night. The scenery was stunning and the studio was decorated beautifully.

AustraliaAdditional sensor lights and better path down to the hot tub would have been nice to ensure that no one accidentally falls over in the dark.
We loved how the property was set in amongst bushland of Mt Lofty and the peaceful atmosphere. Hot tub under the stars on a cold wintery night was wonderful. The room was tastefully decorated too.

AustraliaPossibly the best place we’ve stayed. Studio beautifully presented, comfy bed, very roomy and lots of style. The little extras like good coffee, biscuits, toiletries were much appreciated. The location is private and we loved sitting outside and seeing Kangaroos, parrots and other local wildlife. Outdoor spa was a perfect place to relax with a wine and look at the stars. Highly recommend the Botanic Garden Studios, wish we’d stayed longer.
