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 parking was awkward because my parking spot seemed fitted for a motorcycle. Apart from that, everything else was great.
I really enjoyed the view of the place as well as outside my room. The staff their were cooperative and kind. Their service were great. The room was clean and the bathtub/spa was my favourite :)

New ZealandIf I'm very fussy the car parks are quite narrow but there are ample carparks so you're never stuck.
This was our second overnight stay here. The first night I called at 5pm desperate for a room for my mother and one for my husband, myself, and our two children. They had two rooms for us that were absolutely gorgeous. We arrived at 6.30 tired from packing up our house and Rainbow was an absolute delight. She was so friendly and welcoming. The landscape is stunning with immaculate gardens. It felt like a beautiful retreat before we drove 12 hours the next day. A few weeks later my husband and I had to drive to Wellington for a night and immediately booked in here. The rooms are beautiful and spacious with gorgeous garden views. You feel incredibly private and it is so quiet. There are great facilities in the rooms with cooktop, kettle, plunger, teapot all provided and toasters on request. The TV was set up with TVNZ on demand and Netflix. We intend to stay here each time we are back in Wellington and can't wait to have a bit more time there in future to relax in the beautiful setting.

New ZealandWould have been good if there were some bar snacks/ nibbles in the room as I was a bit peckish and maybe some alcoholic beverages or cans of fizzy to purchase. Definitely will bring some treats next time. The bathroom sliding door did not shut properly and was quite stiff to pull.
Bed, bedding, beautiful setting and lovely staff.

New ZealandIt could get quite noisy at certain points at night with people coming back and letting doors slam, maybe some signs asking for others to be considerate as it doesn't seem to come naturally to some!?
Room photos on Booking.com (as of Nov 2022) are not the updated/refurbished representation of the lodge. It is set in a beautiful location, and only a 2 min drive from Hupper Hutt CBD. The rooms have recently been refurbished to a good standard and are spacious, even when we added in a travel cot there was still ample room to move around the room without falling over each other or luggage. The small kitchenette has a microwave and full size under the counter fridge which was clean, with complimentary milk for the complimentary tea, coffee, and hot chocolate provided. We were able to check in early and the staff, were really friendly and helpful. It was really nice to be able to sit out back and enjoy the fresh air in the private grounds.
