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 biggest problem was the cost of meals. It would have been handy to have a microwave or even a toaster to heat some food from the shops.
The beds were super comfy and the hotel was close to my other destinations.

AustraliaNo views from the room and the car park was quite a walk from where the accommodation is located. Unfortunately, we had to walk through the dining areas with our bags to walk from the carpark, upstairs to our room.
The room was so well appointed, clean and comfortable. No views unfortunately, but otherwise very nice. We chose the smaller "budget shoebox" room, but the room was more than ample for us.

AustraliaThe check in and check out process was not straightforward. I had to search for workers to complete both check in and check out. Checking in at 6pm meant walking through the restaurant and bistro with luggage. Bit awkward and disruptive.
Quirky. Great aesthetics. Comfortable. It had everything we needed. Great coffee with coffee plunger courtesy of Eyre Hotel.

AustraliaThe one huge negative is that check in is in the pokies. Since you can't take children into the pokies it makes it near impossible to check in if you have a child with you who isn't old enough (or in my case, has a disability) and can't be left on their own. Thankfully, another lovely staff member did the running around for me which I really appreciated after a long drive.
The room was updated and modern with everything you would need, including USB ports in the bedside tables. It was immaculately clean. The blinds kept the light out which allowed for a good night sleep. The bed was really comfortable. The TV was huge, with a welcome message and info including the dining room food and drink menu on it. Even the toiletries provided smelt amazing.
