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 air conditioner was quite noisy in the room we were in. I could not figure how to switch it off.
Staff were great. They placed a new microwave in our room so we could cook an early breakfast.

AustraliaThere was an opened box of milk in the fridge - made me wonder what else had been missed during cleaning. Also, as a woman travelling alone it would have been better to have an extra lock on the door for a bit of peace of mind and safety.

AustraliaLocation is a few blocks away from closest hub and shopping centres. albeit the tramstop is not far away, and the shops are only a close walk away. Not a deal-breaker for me (happy to walk) but I guess it depends what you're after.
Staff were attentive and warm. Service was exceptional. Place was clean, designed with class and character in mind. Truly a hidden gem

AustraliaThere is no hotel parking which might be a problem for some people. There are trams and scooters available nearby for transportation alternative. The bathroom mirror is not exactly infront of the sink but abit to the left side which some people may find annoying 😊 but its a personal preference. The price may seem a bit higher but the hotel is worth its price tag and the location is great.
The vintage heritage vibe of the hotel is very nice. We loved it. The room was spacious enough and the bathroom was luxurious. Very clean rooms. Great location and facilities. Easy check in. The building is very secure and very quaint. The tram stop is just nearby so easy to hop on and hop off while going anywhere.

AustraliaYou can hear the sound of the water pipes at night when trying to sleep. Also hard to control the air conditioning/heating - the room was still hot for some reason even though I turned it off
Room and bathroom were clean with nice aesthetics and amenities. Good size for a solo traveller and I really liked the alternative entry/exit for hotel guests. Very secure as well so I felt safe
