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.).

AustraliaThere was a bit of a mixup with our booking. It included dinner, but the staff said it didn’t until I showed them the booking. When we got the dinner, the food was actually amazing. We really enjoyed it. It was authentic home-cooked Indian food, and I would eat there again given the opportunity. The bed was a little bit hard for my liking, but my partner liked it.
The room was very large and spacious. It was very clean. Reasonably modern bathroom. The tv had Netflix. Very quiet.

AustraliaThe presentation of the restaurant lacks refinement - don't get me wrong, the food can not be beaten but the dining room needs freshening up with a paint job, new flooring, curtains, fittings etc to create the comfortable ambiance of dining out. The deluxe units ere spacious.
The food cooked on site in the restaurant is unbeatable. The restaurant is run by exceptional chefs experienced in cooking a diverse range of regional dishes. All dishes were cooked using fresh ingredients... I love to cook authentic Indian myself and I could not fault the food. We took 5 weeks to drive from Qld to Adelaide and back stopping off in most regional towns in NSW. I have fond memories of Hay due to staying here. If I lived in Hay I would sample all dishes and 'eat' my way through the menu.

AustraliaThe weather was extremely hot and the air con struggled, its right near the main road but the noise wasnt too bad, and there is no pool. Its not luxury but its clean and theres nothing bad to say but I probably will choose a motel with a pool next time.
It was okay. Nothing wrong, a bed for the night, it was clean. Staff are making an effort to provide good service.

AustraliaThe back sliding door was broken and couldn't lock, that's the only thing I can think of.
This was a quaint hotel. Wonderful staff. They offered me a free plate of butter chicken it was soooooo yummy 😋 If you need to stop over in Hay this is a perfect spot to stay. I stayed with my daughter and we really likes it.

AustraliaIt was as good as expected, value for money, warm, comfortable bed. Filled our need, but the key wouldn't fit into the Key Return box. A small light there might help though.
It was warm and comfortable. After a long days drive, that is all we wanted.

AustraliaNo drinking glasses in the room, only coffee cups, had to go get another towel as only one was provided but not a deal breaker at all.
We were more than happy with the motel, we were only there to sleep, on check-in we asked about where we could find something to eat for dinner. Our Host told us of a great place - directly across the street at the South Hay Hotel! (If you are there on a Monday night - its Lamb Cutlet night!) Our room was clean, the bed was comfortable the shower has a leak but I'm sure that will be fixed for next time. Most importantly the air-conditioning was quiet and adequate on a hot summer Hay night.
