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.).

AustraliaThe hotel isn’t cheap, but you absolutely get what you pay for- no complaints at all!
The views from the room, the lobby and the restaurants were spectacular, looking right out across Melbourne. We even woke up literally in the clouds on the day we checked out, which was an incredible experience. The service from the staff was exceptional. They provided some much appreciated surprises for my wife and I to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and were always super helpful. The pool is also amazing, which a great view over the city and the bay.

AustraliaThe TV was huge and pulled out from the wall 65 inch but still wasn't a smart TV and I honestly can't think of anything else to complain about except obviously we emptied the mini bar and filled it from Coles over the Rd and when we ate there in the rom for lunch or early dinner it was uber LOL as the meals were a bit much for us I did have a lamb rack but wasn't that impressed but could of just been me
The room was on the 78th floor so you had to take the elevated up to the lobby on the 80th floor and the views were aw inspiring then because our rooms were special ones we had to take another elevated that only caters to the club suits we were on the 78 just under the penthouse the pool was on 64th floor and was open 24/7 and the water was great the bed was the most comfortable I've ever slept on in my life it was like tying on a cloud in the sky we were meant to get up a few times but just couldn't get out of bed all electric blinds and curtains spa bath floor to ceiling windows probably the best hotel I've ever stayed in and we've stayed all over the world nothing like this before but was also the most expensive but was 3 days and a special event we were there for great hotel guy

AustraliaEverything (food, drinks etc) is probably 20% more pricey that you’d expect from a 5* hotel. They’re adding a premium on a premium to everything
The views, room quality, freshness and amenities were all in point. Definitely try get a room with a view of the ocean.
