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 KingdomThe service at the restaurant/pub is painfully slow The pillows are too thick. Some places offer a mix, but all four were overly thick, which is terrible for your neck and spine.
The price compared to nearby full-service hotels is the main reason for staying here. The location is the second reason. The rooms are large and VERY clean. The sports facilities and pool are great. It was my second stay. Suitable for a few nights only and if you'll be out most of the time.

United KingdomHowever, the evening kitchen staff let the side down. My husband ordered curry goat but waited two hours and when it arrived, it was very cold. Therefore, that meal was not prepared in that kitchen but came from elsewhere. It was highly priced and there was very little meat in the meal. This seems more like a side hustle.
Friendly staff, clean environment. The people at the front serving breakfast were fantastic. Service was excellent and the food tasty and there was more on offer.

United KingdomReception and kitchen to have same information re closing time at night, as the discrepancy meant having to leave hotel to find something to eat.
I liked the layout of the hotel. The gym is a good sized one and watching guests play tennis is not something I thought I would enjoy. Appreciated the fridge as not all hotels include them and I feel they should be standard in hot countries.

CanadaWalking track needed, even a small one. Emancipation Park is close by, but it would be nice to be able to have a walk around the property with signs pointing out which way to go, important plants etc.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was good, but sometimes the items on the menu were not available and you did not find out until you placed your order. So a board with specials of the day would be helpful. The red peas soup, pumpkin soup and fish cakes were awesome.

JamaicaI wasn’t too keen on the wooden floors but it wouldn’t affect my rating.
The location was very central. The staff were all very courteous. During my stay I received a call from the restaurant each night to confirm if I was coming down for dinner. The food was great, and the prices were affordable. Daily housekeeping was received which has become a rare service within this hotel industry since covid. Bathroom was of a good size, and I had more than enough toiletries for my entire stay. Water pressure was good, and I had access to hot water. I enjoyed my stay and will return.

CanadaThere could be a jar of water in the gym.
The breakfast is really good but it should not be restricted by either the continental or the jamaican breakfast. For example, I would like some callaloo with my omelet but it was not possible. The reception staff is excellent, very friendly and efficient. The room cleaning staff also does an excellent job.

JamaicaMenu options for restaurant is too limited. The food available is not always tied to the menu provided. Instead, it is tied to what the chef prepares that particular day. Breakfast options are also limited. Therefore, what you eat for breakfast tends to get a bit repetitive after staying a few days
It’s central to everything in Kingston. The food at the restaurant is very affordable. Breakfast is decent. They have a gym, tennis court and swimming pool on site. Staff is very courteous. Adequate parking.
