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.).

AustraliaThe drain in the shower kept blocking. The shade sails over the pool were not installed until a few days into our stay meaning the water in the pool was very warm prior to their installation. Also the spa did not work at all.

The wifi went off a few times but overall it was good. Was hard to get any food delivered as there is only one restaurant in the area and they stopped serving food super early. You couldn't really sit out in the sun at all because it was so shaded so needed to move the lounger all the time to feel any sun on your skin but I'm assuming thats because people maybe don't want to be in direct sunlight. Holidaymakers do though so would be great it there was more access to direct sunlight. it was very far from the city.
The apartment was perfect, very spacious. It was just like having your own home while on holiday. The pool was nice and refreshing. You can get a bus on your doorstep right to cairns city centre. The staff were nice. A great thing about this place was they let you get your groceries delivered from Coles before you arrive. It was a huge relief to have the food there when I arrived after a long trip on the bus and ferry.

AustraliaThe only problem we had was a smell of smoke that came into the room. It was there at the start and on the weekend as well. We mentioned it to the staff and they gave us an essential oil dispenser which helped a bit, but it came back as a problem.
The apartment was as advertised. The outlook onto the pool through tropical trees was very pleasant and the pool itself was very nice to use. Going in Springtime meant it was warm but not hot, so that made for pleasant days by the pool when we weren't out doing tourist stuff. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Australianone of the plugs fiitted the kitchen sink, the hand basin in the bathroom or the bath . So doing the washing up and having a shave became frustrating tasks . Our apartment was on the THIRD FLOOR and there was no lift . Not the ideal situation for pensioners . My wife and I are 73 & 75 respectively . The manager was quick to help us with our suitcases when made aware of our predicament .
