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.).

AustraliaPillows very high and not comfy, there were no other options (I asked). bench in main room and floor tiles in bathroom chipped and cracked which I thought was a bit odd for quite a high end hotel. Walls were a bit grotty, needed a clean in places. Pretty expensive for location and presentation. The room next to elevator seemed odd, I doubt anyone would sleep well next to it, and the floor I was moved to did not have guest rooms adjacent the lift, which is telling.
Bed was comfy, it was clean and had plenty of tea and coffee. the view was nice. I was originally put in room next to elevator which was loud, but was promptly moved to a quieter room. The staff were great, very helpful and quick to respond.

AustraliaSome mould in the bathroom, but is to be expected. Wasn't very clear on booking or check in that full payment plus $200 bond is required up front on arrival .
Spacious, modern, extremely comfy beds. Nice and quiet couldn't really hear other guests except for doors opening and closing. Easy access to tram. New head chef with a delicious and affordable new menu, great for in room dining.

AustraliaBreakfast was very expensive (28$ even after a 20% discount) and coffees were not included. Could get a self made filter coffee but had to pay extra for barista coffee which I think is unreasonable for a 35$ breakfast.
Nice, clean, and spacious room. Comfortable bed and pillows, adequate soaps and shampoos etc. Decent shower pressure. Staff were very helpful. Close to tram and train stop, some nice pubs and cafes in the area.

AustraliaThere was a lot of noise until about 1 in the morning - mostly repetitious music - which was both very loud and very annoying - making it impossible to sleep without headphones.
I liked that the hotel was near a lot of cafes and was easy to access from the direction I was driving into Melbourne from country Victoria. My room was compact - but it was more than enough in size. The bathroom, however, is very small making it very difficult to undertake doing your teeth /etc due to lack of space. The shower is fantastic. The hotel’s soaps/shampoos etc are not single use - which encourages reduced waste. All three of the aforementioned are top quality with a lovely subtle perfume and left both my skin and hair feeling very soft and refreshed. I liked my view from my room. The assortment of teas is reasonable - but there was no instant coffee. Easy access to Uber eats delivery and the like was available.
