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.).

United StatesI think as a frequent traveler for this price range you are paying per night I would have expected more for example, when entering the room, there was an open water bottle in the fridge. The toilet seats aren’t heated/ bidet which I would expect as the floors are heated. To enter the premise you require just a little more signage as is easy to miss, when existing to go to the spa, you have to walk all around the property to re enter.
The whole experience is lovely! the bed is amazing, the bathroom amenities are top of the range, the view is beautiful and the people working there are super friendly.

AustraliaWe requested memory foam pillows at the time of the turn down service which did not arrive. This was disappointing and resulted in a poor night of sleep, especially as our stay was only a single night. There was also an error upon checking where the host thought we were a different couple - which created an awkward moment and re-printing of the itinerary. It would be useful for the host to ask what our overall objective of the stay was rather than rattle off all the various “experiences” available.
The view and feeling of seclusion was excellent. The breakfast was in line with expectations.

AustraliaNothing that I can think of.
The room was lovely and the view was good for the soul. As we stayed 2 nights the experiences were included…..so we enjoyed some cheese tasting and wine pairing, both were super informative. We enjoyed the spa on a fresh evening and looking at the stars was a delight! I would also say that the staff were superb, attentive but not intrusive. A special thank you to Thales for looking after us so well (and supplying us with pastries!). We will be back.

AustraliaNo signs to know where to check in when you are outside the property and arriving for the first time. No sign to say where the buzzer is? Beds are too soft but hard to please everyone Difficult to talk to someone online for inquiries instead of ringing up. Chairs in dining area are not high enough at the back. A little bit uncomfortable.
Love the whole property, very private and exclusive. Loved the spas and pool with lovely change rooms. Love the extra inclusions like the julique products, chocolate and wine plus all the other products. Love the complimentary breakfast. Love the extra options like the nature walk etc.

AustraliaExtremely overpriced for what is given. We were contacted continuously before and during our stay to book in for dinner at the lodge. We attended dinner on one night and found the food to be extremely overpriced for the quality received. Staff were not very attentive and seemed to be behind the bar chatting rather than spending time with guests dining (despite the fact that there was usually only one or two tables occupied at a time each night). Our final course (cheese platter) was forgotten (later delivered to our room with apologies), upon paying staff mistakenly presented us a bill which was double the price of what we ordered. We ate at Mt Lofty restaurant on other nights and found the food and service to be much more enjoyable. Breakfast was underwhelming and there is little offered - you almost get the feeling that you are being offered the bare minimum to save costs. No fresh juice and very little fresh fruit. Room turn down service was only provided on two of the three nights (although we were our for dinner on all three nights). During our stay, it was very windy and the wind was howling through the gaps in the side and bottom of our front door. This was cold but more concerningly, very loud. We had to put a towel underneath the door to be able to sleep. All features (e.g. blinds, music, lights, etc) are controlled by a central touch panel. On our first night, the system started to play music at 4:30am. The system was 'updating'. Overall, the lodge was poorly signed and it was difficult to find your way around - e.g. to the various walks which are suggested, or even to the pool. According to the price, you would expect Sequoia to be on par with luxury accommodation like qualia (in QLD), but it fell very short. It was a beautiful venue but difficult to enjoy it when you are spending $1500 a night, and the value falls very short.
Views were beautiful, rooms were well thought out and comfortable. Interesting technology aspect. Beautiful bathroom.
