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.).

Everything! From the decor to the people working there - everything was fabulous! It's a hotel with personality! I'd definitely recommend, especially if you're going to Universal

United KingdomBar staff in the main bar by the restaurant weren’t particularly friendly or helpful. In fact quite rude. A complete contrast to the reception staff and bar staff by the pool who were always very friendly.
Great hotel in many ways. Lovely lounge and bar area and the pool was perfect after days out and open until late for post dinner dips! Our room was fine, bit of a squeeze for 4 but we weren’t in it much. Restaurant on site was really nice for a meal and the cocktails in the bar were good. We used the trolley to get to Universal and also again one evening to go to dinner at City Walk at Universal. We had considered this hotel alongside Loews and The Roosevelt and were so pleased to have chosen this instead. Location so much nicer and hotel much more pleasant for downtime.

AustraliaGood large parking lot- but very expensive
Really cool place to stay. Pool area is fantastic and has a nice vibe. The on-site restaurant is exceptional-great food, setting and value. A lovely surprise was the available very clean laundry- had piles to catch up on after travelling for so long - sooo convenient- coin operated. The cleanliness was outstanding room cleaners need to be congratulated

United KingdomIt was a bit pricey but it was such a lovely place to stay at the end of our holiday.
The pool area was kept very tidy by the staff and they ensured that the sun beds always had clean towels when someone left the pool area. In the evening the trees around the pool were lit with fairy lights and it became a lovely place to chill out with food after a day at the parks. The hotel has a quirky, homely feel and we loved the 70s inspired decor. The free shuttle bus to Universal and the laundry room were bonuses.
