How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

No ramp to get inside hotel - only stairs (not helpful for a stroller) No on site restaurant or breakfast option. Would have been nice to have more cafes closer to hotel.
Quiet room. Hot shower. Great shampoos and soaps. Comfy bed and spacious room. Easy check in. Close to cafes, 10 mins walk. Washing machine inside apartment. AC and heating.

Car parking was available, but at extra cost which was a bit pricey.
Comfortable and quiet. Having a kitchen was very helpful. The pool was very welcome on a hot day although can get a bit crowded when children are about. The location is supurb with everything so close by - beach, parks, shops, restaurants, walks, events. St Kilda has it all! Excellent public transport provided by extensive tram network nearby - in particular to local markets such as South Melbourne and Victoria Markets.

Parking is 25 AUD per night. Need to pay 200 AUD bond upfront - though returned promptly. Notwithstanding the dryer, a drying rack for laundry would be helpful. Some room details, esp. in bathroom and kitchen, are starting to show wear and tear.
Returning visitors. Stayed three nights. Smooth check-in. Good facilities, incl. well equipped kitchenette. Comfortable lounge and bed. Good hot shower. Washing machine and dryer. Housekeeping. Paid parking underneath. Handy to St Kilda sights, and transport to Melbourne.

A non-stick frypan would be greatly preferred over stainless steel so eggs dont stick
Location was perfect for easy access to the Melbourne F1 GP, well serviced by nearby trams, with easy access from/to the Melbourne CBD. Also close proximity to St Kilda Beach, the main St Kilda strip (Acland street), and the lively Fitzroy street. Good water pressure for a strong shower stream.

I would have loved a tv in the bedroom as well, however overall the room met my expectations.
This was a very neat and tidy room with a separate living space. I loved the kitchen facilities and there was a gym and pool onsite (bonus). The location was fantastic and the room was quiet which made the stay enjoyable.
