How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

So clean, comfortable, warm, and quiet for being in the city. The grounds so well presented I loved the outside areas. The staff are great and amazing cleaners A+ for their wonderful work. Would recommend to all.

Nothing.
Lovely boutique hotel in the perfect location of Dunedin! First, the proprietors are a lovely husband and wife who personally work at the property (including the front desk, personally maintaining the grounds, etc.). The pride they have in their hotel is obvious. Everything was always perfect, inside the hotel as well as the grounds. The room was special as well. The furnishings were very nice, the bathroom was large and well stocked, the kitchenette was well stocked and had everything we needed for our stay.

There is absolutely nothing to complain about here. Everything has been thought through
This property is a small boutique property and tastefully decorated and painted be the cleanest places I have ever stayed. The room was lovely with a balcony with nice views, the kitchenette had everything you need, the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom had heated floors which is a lovely touch. Really nice outdoor spaces as well. Sandra waited up for my late arrival and checked me in which was appreciated. I will stay here again as the room felt so lovely I didn’t want to leave.

Was hard to see the key pad in the lock box at night. A stronger light over the box would be helpful. However I called reception and they were down in very quick time-thank you!
Hosts very accomodating and helpful. Loved the outside courtyards. Very central to lost of cafes, pubs and town centrre

Advice to fellow travelers. The washing machine has a built in dryer that takes a long time to dry heavy clothes such as jeans. It's not a complaint - just plan accordingly!
After a week of travel, it was wonderful to find a washing machine IN THE ROOM, together with a drying rack. No hanging out in the guest laundry waiting for someone to free up the machines!! The whole space was very thoughtfully appointed (shelving, hooks, well-equipped kitchen) - obviously someone (presumably the owners Neville and Sandra) had put a great deal of effort into anticipating the travelers' needs. We had a Premier Studio room with a view to the east over the university - not the most picturesque vista but that's not the hotel's fault. The room was super clean, quiet and the bed comfortable. It was a perfect location for our visit. A 15 minute walk to the Octagon, Toitu Otago Settlers Museum and the infamous railway station. Parking on-site. The Otago peninsular is spectacular, worth a drive or bicycle ride, and if you are lucky you might see some great wildlife. As an aside - Dunedin is the home of Speight's brewery (est 1876) and after a statistically representative sample we are now firm converts to this great New Zealand product.
