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.).

AustraliaSome of the staff were not nice. Particularly the lady that signed us out and overcharged us. Not charged us according to the original quote from Bookings.com. Even when I showed her the quote she said that I should have booked directly with them (which was a lot dearer than bookings.com). We just had to pay what she said then had the hassle of emailing the manager who gave us a refund because we were right all along. We didn’t need this hassle and being belittled for not booking direct at a much dearer price.

United KingdomParking was a major pain point as we actually requested parking on site on booking. The TV in our room appeared to have some difficulty in operation. We actually spent most of the time in our room sitting watching our view with a glass of wine.
Loved the room and the view was great. The bed and facilities were good and clean. The location of the Stamford is very good giving wonderful views of the bridge and the river.

AustraliaDifficult to get into the driveway with the trucks blocking entrance and driveway, had to drive around the block a number of times waiting for a truck to clear the entrance. the construction on the next building made it difficult to enjoy the beautiful outside courtyard with the noise. Every time we chose to sit outside, construction was noisy - grinding and hammering. I know it is out of your hands but it did impact on Pav Bar and outside seating area comfort and atmosphere. The work on the bridges and Eagle Street Pier cutting off the walking areas also was a nuisance and at times noisy. The joys of a city!
Location is great if you want to travel the river and city area, easy to access City Cat and walk around the gardens. View is amazing from the floor we were on, thanks to the receptionist for the choice of room when booking us in. Easy to walk to a number of things and with local restaurants very good location. Room was clean and well maintained Pool was great, clean and beautiful view over the river

AustraliaBreakfast was ordinary, I had expected the venue to be more in keeping with the style of the hotel. Limited food choices in the buffet too, coffee wasn’t good either. The pool had limited number of lounges. A few cabanas would have been more welcoming, as well as more foliage.

The last time we stayed at this hotel the smell from the Argentinian restaurant was horrendous so we made a complaint. Staying this time there was no smell at all, thank goodness.

AustraliaWhen I stayed at the Stamford in Adelaide there were robes in the room, it would have been nice to have a robe especially to walk down to the pool in, also a few power points in my room weren’t working, I had to unplug the floor lamp and charge my phone and the tv in the bathroom didn’t work

AustraliaThey used to have the most delicious smoky bacon at the breakfast buffet but no longer. Also, the scrambled eggs are more like something you'd get at a school camp. The steps into the hot tub are dangerously slippery. My partner and another guest both came to grief and almost hit their heads on the concrete. There used to be a lot of sun lounges by the pool but there were only 2 or 3 left and those were starting to fall apart.
Dinner at the restaurant was excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful. The pool was a nice temperature.

AustraliaThe bath had a bath plug that was tricky to operate. My partner almost cut their finger off trying to dislodge the plug. Perhaps a differently designed plug would be better. Also the big TV in the bedroom didn't have captions enabled despite our efforts to engage the staff to press the buttons to unlock the subtitle feature on the TV as we are Deaf customers and need access to captions.
Clean, spacious rooms to our liking. My partner in particular liked the roomy bath in the bathroom with its own TV which was captioned, what a perfect experience of relaxing in the bath and watching the TV at the same time!

AustraliaMy only complaint relates to only having one coffee machine at the Breakfast Restaurant. First world problems! One machine was not enough and it meant longer than necessary queues. Staff also had to regularly top up the milk etc just to keep up with demand which added further to time spent in queues. As a minimum, I would recommend an extra coffee machine or better still that the coffee order be taken and served by a waiter/waitress if possible.
We liked the Room, the beautiful view, the room service & the comfort of the beds and seating. On check in we were apparently upgraded to a better room which was appreciated.
