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.).

United StatesNo complaints about the hotel, staff, rooms, or accommodations. We enjoyed staying there and will definitely return.
Fantastic location just outside the CBD and with immediate access to great restaurants. Major museums, parks, and galleries are within easy walking distance, with easy access to public transport. Hotel staff were very helpful, professional, and accommodating. The vibe of the common areas and the rooms is modern, positive, artful, and fun. Room aren't huge, but well outfitted, with great showers, bathrooms, and bed. Breakfast is available on the ground floor, and the food is decent and well priced. Can't beat the location.

AustraliaThere were no instructions regarding how to turn off and on the lights on the mirror in the bathroom and also how to turn off the fan. Other than that it was great.
Location was great. The room was nicely renovated, comfortable and clean. My room was off the road so it was nice and quiet. Breaksfast was very nice and a good size for me, ie not too big and not too small.

United StatesHated the refrigator. It was warm. Didn't keep my medicine cold. Constantly going to get ice, which didn't stay frozen as it's in a metal pail. Didn't like not having a top sheet and no blankets. Yes, I constantly moved the thermostat.
Loved the artwork. I could live in the elevator. The room was very nice. Very close to the Royal Exbition Center. I will book again for next year.

AustraliaNo tissues, shower cap or water bottle provided which seems a bit miserly for a 4 star hotel at 4 star prices. No bath mat to walk onto out of the shower to avoid water on the floor outside the shower.

AustraliaI appreciate mood lighting, but found the room to be a little too dark. Not a lot of space to store luggage, however that wouldn't put us off staying here again.
This boutique hotel is a real gem. Modern rooms with a great fit out, comfortable beds and well appointed, including quality hair dryer, hair straightener, coffee machine and bathroom products. Pleasant staff and a nice reception and breakfast area. Comfortable beds and excellent bed linen. Just on the outskirts of the city, but an easy walk into the action. Plenty of nearby bars and restaurants on Lygon St in Carlton, and the Carlton Gardens on your doorstep for morning runs, or basking in the sunshine. Onsite parking available. Wine bar/store on site. Would certainly stay here again.

AustraliaA few suggestions noted above,but little to improve on!
Extremely comfortable beds ,very clean rooms and high standard of facilities..Appreciated the provision of blow dryer and curling/straightening wand.Effective blockout curtains and soundproofing so even though my room overlooked Lygon St noise was minimal. Roomservice was efficient and of a very good standard.Dishes that catered to different diet requirements so very helpful Rooms cleaned daily to a high standard and toiletries replenished on request . Appreciated the Nespresso facility -suggest you include Tea Tonic options in the room also [enjoyed at breakfast downstairs in the cafe] A water carafe with dedicated tumbler by the bedside would be a thoughtful and helpful inclusion . Liked your cards/pencil - gave me a chance to write some "Thankyou" notes to my colleagues in Melbourne
