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.).

Poor WiFi quality, Chromecast accessibility didn’t work - staff couldn’t fix and didn’t appear to care about it. Restaurant was only open until 10am for breakfast which is a bit too early for holidaymakers. Quite noisy on the lower floors from early morning rubbish collection/deliveries
Great location and modern, well appointed rooms. Easy walking distance to Rundle Mall, Victoria Square Tram Stop and and abundance of eateries, pubs, restaurants at the east end of Adelaide. 11am checkout was excellent!

We were in our room when the cleaner came through, very offensive body odour. Carpark should be included.
We had a great time! Room was perfect for our little family! Breakfast was incredible! Staff were lovely. It was easier with the kids as the staff we accepting of them.

There was nothing I could complain about during my stay at the Vibe Hotel; everything met my expectations and more. If I were picky, I would prefer natural milk to long-life, which is a personal choice, and there are never enough coffees, haha.
The friendly and accommodating staff at a great location is close to anything Adelaide City offers. We took advantage of the hotel parking for $25, as street parking is $10 for two hours, and we could explore the city on foot. Enjoying breakfast and the later check-out at 1100 the following day is just fantastic.

Pool a bit small and not really made to hang around, really a plunge thing. Lucky great weather during our stay so we enjoyed many Adelaide beaches close to cbd. No foxtel, only free to air. Did not bother us this trip, cause fringe festival and WOMADelaide kept us busy.
Small boutique hotel which we love. And hotel breakfast was THE BEST!!! The restaurant was very comfortable with indoor and outdoor seating available. Great location for our access to WOMADelaide by foot, 20min walk ok with us. Staff wonderful, always accessible and helpful. Secure parking in back lane way was easy. We extended our stay for 2 extra nights and cancelled another hotel we had booked.

The proximity of the toilet to the bed doesn't leave much to the imagination.
Good location, clean and tidy accommodation, staff very nice and willing to assist. Fellow at the restaurant made us a coffee even though they had closed 2 hours prior. The lady at the front desk helped us with some tape to secure something to our luggage. The cleaning attendants were very nice and approachable when I needed more tissues.

Bathroom has no proper door (just glass doors). We’re not allowed for early check in or late check out (were only given extra 30 mins) and received a same template response twice when asked “we’re fully booked”.
The room we booked has a bathtub overlooking city view. Room was clean, spotless, modern. Staff at the restaurant are so nice to us.

The pool is quite small and not really suitable for children, and while protected, it is kind of outside so in Winter may be a bit cold. It is a little less central than other hotels in Adelaide but still very much walkable.
The staff was very helpful and friendly and the rooms are very nice, I was located higher up in the building and had the most amazing view of Adelaide! The food at the restaurant was excellent. Definitely would stay there again.
