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 ZealandThe pillows were a bit uncomfortable but other than that the cabin was great value.
My son and I stayed in a cabin, which was clean and tidy. It also contained a small fridge, tea and coffee facilities, a TV, towels and bedding were all included.

United KingdomThere was a dirty, greasy pan left in the drawer in the kitchen area and the dishwasher smelt like the filter needs cleaning. The reception staff on duty were friendly and helpful but the cleaners need to up their game.
Beds were comfortable, nice quiet setting.

New ZealandThe room was excellent but the privacy was not so great. Other cabins looked directly into #5 and closing curtains was the only option. The adjoining room was also VERY NOISY. We heard parents screaming at kids and kids jumping on beds and crashing around in their kitchen. That was a bit disappointing. Check aircon regularly…it smelt weird.
Loved the double glazing in the room - very cozy at night. Spacious. All we needed was provided for dining/ cooking gear, good supply of hot drink selection and towel service were superb. Cleanliness was good and I’m super fussy in that aspect. Loved the proximity to pools and spa, Hilton Hotel restaurant, other attractions and Taupō township.

New ZealandOutside seating would have been nice, plus some more space to hang wet things.
Big enough for everyone to stay with the amenities we needed. Very clean and excellent staff, nice to have the hot pools close by. The communal facilities were outstanding. We had a problem with the bathroom door that they worked hard to fix and also provided a free day at the hot pools to compensate for the inconvenience whilst it was being repaired.

United KingdomThe kitchenware is sparse, there are no communal BBQ implements that I could see, I needed to ask for a pot and a kitchen knife but I think it was an oversight that they weren't there in the first place, this was rectified easily and quickly. So my tip is if you need something, ask at reception they will do their best to help you.
The beds were very comfortable, the showers were lovely and hot, the cabin was spacious and the air conditioning was very welcome. The cafetiere and well stocked tea and coffee selection was a lovely addition. Showers in the shared amenities were spacious and hot.The park is very well maintained.

AustraliaWe were in Chalet 6B, would be nice to have a verandah to dry clothes etc. No option inside the chalet as well. There should be a limit on # of people allowed for the pools... it was crammed...not really as relaxing as the photos depict!

SingaporeThe amusement park didn't amuse my children. The 2 slides resulted in complaints from them that it was "slimy" and the connecting slide joints hurt their backs. After less than an hour, they were ready to leave.
The cabin we stayed in was great. Very clean and had everything we needed. Also enjoyed the terrace with beautiful view of the lake. Staff was very kind, bistro on site was convenient and Hilton hotel next door gave another walkable restaurant option. The private pool was the highlight of spa.

New ZealandThe staff wasn’t particularly friendly and the walls between the cabins are thin so you hear very well your neighbours. Guests still need to pay to access the pools, we hadn’t realised it wasn’t included in the price. Overall quite expensive for what it is!
