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.).

AustraliaNothing really, although it was hard to park to check in.
We were very happy with the hotel. The room was great. The bed was comfortable and walk in shower was hot with good water pressure and good sized towels. Toiletries were easy to use and had a pleasant scent.The view was awesome, green bush, a lake, and very relaxing. We enjoyed breakfast in the restaurant and the easy free parking. The staff were friendly and helpful. It helps with our plans to have free cancellation too. Location was excellent - 2 blocks from the M2 so very easy escape from Sydney.

AustraliaThe bathroom set up was a bit challenging as the toilet got in the way and the shower leaked onto the main bathroom floor
The location was perfect for the purpose of my stay (held at Macquarie uni). The room was spacious and clean and the bird visitors in the afternoon were an added perk.

AustraliaAs above. Thx
1. Lachlan's Restaurant was nice. A buzzer or bell needs to be at desk entrance for someone to attend for a table or payment. 2. Not open for breakfast Saturday or Sunday. Disappointing, having accommodation, there is nothing close for a reasonable breakfast. 3. Not sure why it is called MSGM Executive Hotel? The room is nice, the building is antiquated, old looking. 4. Family members tried phoning me on my mobile, but I was so tired, sleeping through any ringing. Family member was concerned, phoned reception and asked if they could put their call through to me. Reception said no. Family member phoned again asking if someone could go and check on me in my room. Reception again said "no I can not do that" busy wat Reception with patrons. Three times, Family member was hung up on. I spoke to Suzanne, Reception of the incidents and found it "out of character" and would look into it. Before I left, I was not aware of the outcome. Thx

SingaporeNot much of choices for breakfast.
I am so glad that I got a room with the lake view. Probably because I am a bird watcher thus the room especially meet my taste and exceed my expectation. The housekeeping staff were friendly, polite and helpful. The front desk young guy was very professional too.
