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.).

New Zealand1. The advertised Check-In time was displayed as 10pm, I'm glad I made contact around 7pm to advise we won't be there until around 9pm as we received a response that the reception is closed from 6:30pm. However they advised the room number and that they left the room open with the key there. I wonder if I would have been told of this had I not got in touch? I would have expected reception to be available up until the advertised Check-In time or at least been provided the service of letting us know otherwise. 2. The tv remote barely worked - I gave up frustrated with it, likely needed replacement batteries but I see they don't want guests tampering with that as the battery compartment on the back is taped up.
Bed was comfortable, I don't sleep well in a lot of accommodation beds, but I slept well in this one. Room was of decent size so plenty of space and additional heating in the cupboard is very proactive as the wall heater really is not enough for the space. Location is fine, not too central but, the convenient bus route right outside makes up for that.

New ZealandThe facilities were suitable for what we needed but there were a number of things in the room that were missing or needed a little TLC . Bathroom had been renovated but the main light bulb was blown, only one flannel provided despite 2 occupants and no bin by the toilet for rubbish. The kitchen Bench had a damaged counter top and the kitchen tidy bin lid was broken so wouldn't close. Beds had mattress protectors but these had stains. Couch had marks/stains Room was non smoking but past guests had left cigarette butts outside on walkway to the room which hasn't been picked up. Compendium was empty....no information.
Location is great. -walking distance to Riccarton mall, the CBD through Hagley park, restaurants and cafes etc. Appreciate that the staff let us leave our bags at reception while we ventured out as our arrival and departure at the airport was outside check-in and check-out times. The facilities were suitable for what we needed but there were a number of things in the room that were missing or needed a little TLC

United KingdomThe room was very hot (it was a super hot day) but it stayed very warm at night. They did supply a fan which was great but just something to consider in the summer if bringing a fluffy dog.
Convenient location. Easy parking. Everything you need for an overnight stay with your dog.
