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.).

AustraliaThey need to pay attention to detail ie: re-stock the room after guest checkout. EG: There were NO towel of any description and it took two phone calls to get them all and no mugs for tea and the kettle didn't work
Beds very comfortable and bed linen good. View was spectacular

AustraliaThe shower glass was a bit odd with the gap in it. The floor would get wet and also the toilet. Not a big issue but yeah the floor was just always wet even with the bath mat. The aircon was a bit rattly if left on for too long and in this heat it was essential to have it on.
We liked how the hotel was walking distance from everything, the staff were friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was really great

United KingdomSoundproofing could be better between rooms. Think we were quite unlucky to be next to someone quite loud. Didn’t keep us up all night though which was good. We did also have to change rooms as wrong beds in original room.

AustraliaRooms were a bit dated. Need a little bit of love. Aircon in the room did not work properly. Breakfast could be a little more exciting. Bar shut at 8pm.
The pool and bar area was great. Had a lovely few hours hanging out at the pool. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. We had a quick overnight trip for a birthday surprise and were pleasantly surprised to get into our room earlier which was very much appreciated.

New ZealandI didn't like that fact that the walls were paper thin, while walking back to the elevator could hear people in a room having s*x, it was off putting especially for the other people in the hallway who had young children and could hear it all. I didn't like the fact that the house keepers washed all the towels in the same laundry the guests use and that they left it in there for a period of time once it was finished. Also I did ask for 2 single beds which we got one was against a wall and one was in the middle of the room it moved everytime I'd get up or roll over creating a safety risk
I liked that this motel was very central to Surfers Paradise and there was a Coles just over the road, the staff at the Vibe were great and very helpful and allowed us to check in early due to my traveling companion being unwell. The room was clean and tidy all though some wear and tear noticeable probably due to its age.
