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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

AustraliaNo minibar in the room - usually wouldn’t bother us but I wasn’t organised so when my son was hungry we had no food in the room, so really a me problem!
We received a free room upgrade, two free complimentary drinks and 20% off our meals! Great location and the buffet breakfast was delicious

New ZealandThe bathroom was very small and the basin was actually outside the bathroom in the main room area. It was in a small space so we didn't have anywhere to put our toiletries next to the basin. It was a bit odd.
We were warmly greeted by the staff on reception when we arrived late at night and throughout our stay all the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious with plenty of room for our bags. We came via the Skybus and it's a good 10 min walk to Central Station. We found it was easy to walk into the city for shopping/eating and across the river to the bars/restaurants on the riverside.

AustraliaThe lack of USB ports around the room made it a bit hard to charge devices. We came from another trip to a hotel that had lots of USB and USB-C ports so had very few chargers on us, only cables. The train noise overnight was also noticeable, so higher floors are most definitively recommended.
The location is great, as well as the front desk staff. The rooks are spacious and comfortable, but would greatly benefit from a few USB ports. The bathroom is adequate, but it will need a refresh fairly soon. Would definitively stay there again.

New ZealandLocated on the edge of the main city close to Docklands, the Yarra River, the historic Flinders Street Station, and within the free tram zone, so the location is very good. We received a complimentary upgrade from a studio to a one bedroom apartment that had a spacious kitchen, living area and bedroom. The kitchen was well equipped and contained not only the expected amenities but also a full sized fridge/freezer, oven and washing machine. The bathroom was on the small side and the shower quite compact, but hot water supply and pressure was good. The apartment was quiet but, although we were on the 13th floor, did not have a view beyond the surrounding buildings. The hotel staff were very friendly and informative in providing a map and orientation of the city as well as indicating where the nearest food stores were and how the tram system worked. They also helped with arranging our early morning transport back to the airport. The hotel is older style but clean and comfortable nonetheless, made more comfortable by the helpful and friendly staff. The room was serviced to a high standard and amenities replenished regularly. A 24 hour front desk and card key security on the lifts made the hotel feel safe.

Location and staff. Once we parked we could walk everywhere in the CBD. The staff were welcoming and helpful. We have stayed here several times now and the one bedroom apt is perfect. We have drinks in the bar before going out and breakfast in the restaurant and both are great.
