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.).

AustraliaAfter selecting Punthill Williamstown as our accomodation as it was advertised as Pets Allowed on booking.com upon check in they told us their dog policy was an additional $250. This is not a hold fee, this is a charge and is non refundable. After realizing our booking itself was already unrefundable we were put on a very awkward spot on a public holiday late afternoon and we needed to be somewhere else so had no time to find an alternative. Reception was very defensive they told me I should have rang before confirming my booking.com (what's the point of being on this site if they need this to accept pets) as much as they advertise they are pet friendly they have a large charge to cover this. I have never experienced a hotel charging such a fee, albeit expecting it to be more than my nights accomodation $220. If you need to charge extra for being dog friendly build it into your booking.com cost as a room option. Ive spent my week at other Pets Allowed accomodation (with nicer facilities) and when they need to charge they do it this way. This needs to be VERY CLEAR especially how much their fee is to accept dogs before booking. Not putting it on customers that it's on them that they didn't ring beforehand? Honestly it's not even clearly on your site. It's asking even then to contact the hotel to get the pet policy, why gatekeep this fee so much. If anything such a hotel to charge such a large fee shouldn't even bother to advertise as Pets Allowed on booking.com at all. To say there are charges may apply without the fee listed should not be acceptable without any clear indication of how large the fee is as its available on request only. They should have also told me this before my stay (they contacted me to ask me if I needed parking so why not tell me about this?) This is not clearly stated on their booking.com page and again, this fee was MORE than our nights cost. And the room was not worth the $470 grand total.

AustraliaWe arrived on the Thursday and then because it was the Easter long weekend they wouldn’t clean our room or even empty the rubbish for us or restock towels or toilet paper. I had to take rubbish down to the basement myself. I paid a lot for the room and feel that if you are only there for the long weekend it’s not fair to them not clean your room for 4 days. We left on the Wednesday morning in the lady said she would get the room cleaned on Tuesday but they still didn’t do it. The other issue was that the spa deck is usually open till 7:00pm. I feel this should be open later each night but over the Easter weekend it shut at 5:00. I can’t understand why they would need to shut it at 5:00. I couldn’t have a spa the whole time of my stay as we were busy all day and would have loved a spa after tea. My Child did have a spa in the day but I didn’t have the opportunity until After tea each day.
The location was great. I really think these type of premises should include undercover secure parking as part of the rate charged per night for the hotel. They charge enough anyway and I feel parking should be included.

AustraliaThe cost of the overnight stay well exceeded the amenities provided. The room while clean needed updating/renovation. The lounges were saggy to sit in, the carpet was poorly patched in places and paint peeling on walls where it was obviously from damp. Also the shower is in the bathtub! There was aircon an the lounge but none in the bedroom, and no ceiling fan. It would have been cheaper for me to UBER there and back to have a night out with my friends!!
The checkin and location and friendly staff.
