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.).

SwitzerlandThe location is ok, close to the city. We hired a car, it's easier in Cairns if you want to explore all the beauties that the region is offering. We had an apartment which was ok, we had the chance to wash our clothes and to cook some meals (which is not bad if you travel for 40 days). We had to spend some times in the apartment, due to heavy rain and floods. likely the hotel is not situated next to rivers. The staff is super kind.

Czech RepublicThe air-conditioning was located in the room so that the cold air went directly to the bed, which was very uncomfortable. To many written warnings in the room including threat of penalties - really unpleasant. Difficult to reach the reception open.
Spacy room with small private yard. The kitchen was very well equipped including microwave and kettle. Good location in the town, within walking distance to the downtown.

AustraliaRemote for the air-conditioning didn't function and we spent one uncomfortable night but was replaced the next day. The info on booking.com said there was a coffee machine and a few other things in the room which was incorrect 🤔.
The location was great, central, easy walking distance to the main shopping area and eateries. Loved being able to relax in the spa & pool each day. Room very spacious with an area to air, dry things.

AustraliaNothing major, but there were a couple of things. The mattress in the bedroom are quite firm, which i'm not used too so it was a bit of an adjustment. And the air con unit in the bedroom didn't work quite as well as the one in the living space, but was fine. I found running the ceiling fan for a short while distributed the cool air better.
Overall i had a pleasant stay here. It had everything i needed, but being a solo traveler i didn't need much. However here you'll find a microwave, plates, glasses, cutlery, corkscrew, scissors, washing up liquid, clothes washer & dryer, air con, tea & coffee, etc. It's about a 10-15 minute walk from the centre of town (i'm a slow walker) and there is a Budget/Avis branch just down the road. Plus the ocean water is only a few minutes walk. And also due to my flight to Cairns being very delayed, i arrived way outside of check-in time, but that wasn't a problem and staff gave me prompt instructions for after-hours access.
