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.).

A nice room design. Large swimming pool, so many vegetation makes the hotel feels like colder in hot and humid Magelang. there is also a private carnival for kids. located just a couples km from Borobudur, Punthuk Setumbu can be reached within 6 minutes driving.

IndiaA better selection of tea bags in the room would have been helpful.
Great location. Excellent hospitality by the staff. The buffet breakfast spread was quite lavish and had a variety of choices. The staff at both the restaurants were very helpful. They even created a customised vegetarian dish for one of our family member. The walk thru the Rice fields and neighbouring village was superb.

SwitzerlandThe Plataran Borobudur is perfect the way it is. If we have a suggestion, it is nothing more than that: We felt breakfast was not 100% up to the standard of the rest of the hotel, not in terms of quality or quantity, those were great. But the atmosphere is very busy, with not much space and people walking around your table to get to the buffet all the time. Putting the foodstalls literally around the tables makes it impossible to find a quiet table, even outside. We were very happy when the - again most helpful and professional - staff brought us a table from the pool, so we could sit in the pool are. Again: High standard of solving a tiny problem. :-)
This Hotel is pure perfection. From check in to check out it was a wonderful experience, and we do not believe it can get any better than this. Staff is highly competent, the rooms and the whole building are just stunningly beautiful, and if you want to see more, explore the outside... there is so much to see. We especially liked the afternoon tea, where you could sit at the rooftop bar and completely unwind. But we also enjoyed the food and drinks in the restaurant, the view from our balcony, the spa and gym...We already dream of coming back here one day!

FranceBeautiful room and furniture. The bed is large and comfortable, the bathroom clean. Fresh fruits and small bites provided in the room with a personalized message. The pool is good, tea time was appreciated near the pool. We also had a massage at the hôtel spa, which was great. The setting is beautiful and proximity to Borobudur center was appreciated. Daily free shuttle to the temple is provided. Hôtel restaurants were really good, for a meal or a drink. All the staff is top-notch.

MalaysiaThe repetitive food in the restaurants over the 3 nights we were there. The food was good on the 1st day but it gets mundane and boring if there are insufficient varieties.
We love the surroundings and the friendly staff. Very luxurious and spacious room. Good lighting in the room. The free tea time and afternoon activity weaving baskets were a nice touch.

Indonesia- The floor is not carpeted and though beautifully tiled, the noise of luggages, carts and even people walking in the hallway can be noisily heard, - The food is a mix of hit and miss. Ayam hutan kota (signature dish) is not apetizing but the daun pepaya with teri is good. The iga kecombrang is just so so and overall all food are pricey for the quality - Buffet can be better. For 250k++, there should be more options and/or better quality
- The service is uber excellent. All staffs are very responsive to your needs and friendly, - Hotel design is art déco and full of interesting details with view to serene paddy field, - If you are staying for the Borobudur Marathon, they provide free shuttle vv - The masseurs at the spa know their stuffs. Recommended experience - Minibar is inclusive of the room charge and refillable
