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.).

Switzerlandour room was a bit dark and worn in parts. we did not mind for one night but would not choose this hotel for an extended stay.
the overall layout of the hotel and its grounds with diverse recreational options seemed nice, in particular for families with kids. having some (rather tame) wildlife on your doorstep certainly is an extra treat.

AustraliaWe didn’t like the food from the restaurant for lunch and dinner, none of us liked what we ordered. We didn’t like the fact that the pool was not heated, it was such a turn off as it was mainly the reason why we chose this hotel. The fact that the pool looked so beautiful. It was absolutely freezing cold, and the spa was obviously folull of kids and it wasn’t relaxing. We didn’t love the building corridors to the rooms, they looked old and not welcoming. We didn’t love the fact that you had to put coins in to play pool because we didn’t have any cash and despite we trying to ask the staff in the front desk for an alternative we couldn’t play.
We love the lobby and the facilities around it, we absolutely loved the sailboats and the fact that they were free to use. We loved the kangaroos around and the comfort of the room’s access to the lagoon and the view. We loved the breakfasts and the hige variety the buffet had.

QatarThe only facility I didn’t enjoy was the pool. It was really cold at first but got used to the temperature. I would still prefer the water to be more heated so that more people would actually go. Some of the people I was staying over with refused to go due to the coldness of the pool. Other then that the rest was amazing 🤩
I enjoyed the food of the breakfast and the quick responses of the staff members. The settings of lunch and dinner was amazing and the beds were very comfy. I also enjoyed the room and views there. I enjoyed the facilities like the gym and the kayaking spot. Keep up the good work 😊

AustraliaFurnishings etc in our room were quite dated. Probably a bit overpriced in comparison but better than travelling home late from an event at the resort.
We were attending an event at the resort so was great from that aspect. Room was spacious.

AustraliaCommunication regarding breakfast was disappointing. There was no communication regarding having to register everyday to get the discounted breakfast deal. Two of our family members did not have an alternative email address so was expected to pay $40 to eat with us, so they didn’t join us. Another family member who was already an Accor member also had to register to get the same discount. Just didn’t make sense. In addition only card transaction was acceptable to purchase drinks, food and or snacks which incurred a fee for the transaction, and for some family members who have travelled from overseas mostly had cash, so they weren’t able to freely pay for things so other family members did in there behalf. Disappointing

AustraliaWhen I asked if there was a communal microwave available at Novotel while making a reservation, I was told that they could provide one in the room upon request for $10 a day. So, I brought some food for my kids. Despite asking several times from check-in onwards, I didn't receive any response and ended up throwing away the food. At checkout, there was an extra charge of $20, and when I inquired about a refund, they said they could arrange it but I had to wait until the next day. Feeling increasingly frustrated about not receiving the promised service, I questioned why I had to wait again for a refund. Only then did they finally refund me. I can't understand why they didn't just say they couldn't provide the microwave from the beginning, as we would have never requested it. Even if there had been a microwave, we intended to use the hotel restaurant
It was great because the kids had a fun time. They enjoyed kayaking during the day and playing ping pong and games at night Also, the room had been renovated, so it was cleaner than last year, which was great.
