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.).

CanadaAdditional paid parking was not clearly outlined in the booking website. $25 per night. Though it was convenient. The place was not the cleanest and it had definite wear and tare on the carpet so the nightly charge was definitely too much but it was still comfortable with an amazing view.
Great ski in and out location with friendly staff. Easy check in with key code being sent the week before with all instructions needed re: Parking, ski check in and out, etc. Loved the boot dryer and the pull out couch was very comfortable.

AustraliaThe apartment is a bit tired and in need of a coat of paint, new carpets and generally a bit of love. That said, it’s still a nice place and good value for,money.
Blackcombe is great, so quick to walk across to Whistler village and The Aspens is true ski-in / ski-out. We loved the ski valet too. The apartment is cosy and very relaxing and had everything we needed to cook of an evening. This is the third time we have stayed at The Aspens and will definitely stay again.

CanadaThe decor is dated and the carpets are... Ick. I suppose that's why it's priced so reasonably but a new carpet would go so far to make this place feel like an absolute diamond.
An amazing value for the area. Check in was really easy, the building is very nice, an easy and beautiful walk to the village. Location is quiet and very beautiful. Having a one bedroom is really convenient and cozy.

United KingdomVery overpriced for a dated property but the best value I could find in Whistler. Quite scruffy room - tatty furniture, rips in carpet. Other guests shouting and smoking weed all night, although I appreciate that this is not the hotel's fault.
Open air swimming pool, more spacious than a hotel room, good location on Blackcomb Mountain.

CanadaThis is a privately owned unit in the Aspens Hotel. You don't checkin at the front desk, you need to get a door code via a message in booking.com before you can get into your room. We didn't know that or receive those details, I had to call booking.com support before getting the message, took about 30 mins on the phone in the lobby. The room is pretty rundown, furniture is beat up, some rips in the carpet. The master bed and pull out couch are both pretty uncomfortable.
Location was amazing, truly ski in ski out, with free valet ski service. Three hot tubs and a pool. A very short walk to the upper village, with restaurants and ski rental access. The room has a small kitchenette which did the job. We were able to get a later checkout after a mixup with door code details. We got a great price so it was worth it.

Hong KongThe room we are staying are rather messy as we arrived at 4:30 pm. It is not clean up yet and smell of bacon. There is only one spoon but plenty of forks. However, all essential equioment and utensil are ready. I supposed that can be improved.
The location for skiing and other winter activities is good and convenient. However under the COVID-19 event and the 'suuny'' weather during our stay the area is a bit quiet and lack of seasonal mood.

Italy(These comments are suggestions for the host-but we loved our stay regardless)The apartment is in desperate need of updating. Needs new blinds, carpets, flooring, pans, some of the light bulbs were out, the bedroom closet doors were broken, the bathroom sink leaked, the bathtub didn't drain properly, hair dryer didnt work… Also the bed was quite hard (but after a long day of skiing we didn't notice). None of this took away from the experience and the great location of the spot- but for $300/night I expected it to be a bit less run down! Plus we saw another unit and it had recent renos done and was an entirely different space. Would likely book the aspen again, but would stay in a different apartment!
We had a great weekend at this apartment! It was so cozy and had everything we needed (coffee maker, pots, pans, utensils, etc…). Loved the fireplace and patio and all the space. Very old school cottagey vibes! The hot tubs/pools were so nice, the building staff were great, and getting into/out of the apartment was a straightforward endeavor. Loved that you could ski out to the blackcomb gondola and that there was a ski valet. We definitely would book this place again (but probably not the same 437 unit)
