Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaWas more expensive than usual because long weekend. Would have liked a higher floor although we still enjoyed the view.
Location and view are fantastic. Had 8th floor with river view. Have had higher before. It’s good to use ear plugs if you don’t like noise eg trains and cars. Plenty of action to watch in the city. Kitchen had enough utensils but could use a medium sized saucepan. Had washing machine and comfortable bed. Heated pool was pleasant. Was allowed a later check out. Lovely staff. 24 hr reception.

AustraliaNothing. Although, I normally get a lovely cookie or note welcoming me back as I stay here a few times a year. I didn’t this time, so that was a little disappointing. The cookies are delicious 😝
As always Clarion Suites is a great place to stay. Friendly staff, and great location. Clean, and comfortable.

AustraliaExcellent location to Melbourne city, transport and venues in the area. Reception staff were fabulous and very welcoming, appreciated the complimentary coffee voucher during my stay. Had a wonderful dinner at the hotel restaurant (a beautiful steak), great food and drinks and very affordable. Room was clean, spacious and comfortable and a brilliant view of Southbank on the Yarra from the balcony. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay again when in Melbourne. Thank you again for a great experience.

AustraliaThe location is fantastic, walking distance to city centre, Southbank, flinders lane & laneways, the hotel is getting a bit tired but it is spotlessly clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay at a reasonable price. If your a light sleeper opt for a room that doesn’t overlook the river, the view is fantastic but the trains can be a little noisy. The staff are top rate! Outstanding service, so friendly & helpful.

AustraliaThe one bed city view unit we booked has a studio next to it & they can be rented together as a 2 bedroom. The wall between our bedroom and the studio was paper thin and on the second night we could hear every word the people staying in the studio were saying as I think the bed was literally on the other side of the wall to ours. This could have been awkward as I was travelling with my 13 yo son. Luckily the people were polite and didn't get up to any antics.
We stayed in a one-bedroom corner city view apartment. The location was brilliant as we could easily walk or catch a free tram to anywhere in CBD. It's only a 18-minute walk to Marvel Stadium which was handy as we went to a concert there one night. South bank is also just across the bridge in front of the property. The unit was large and bright, and the expansive city views down to Federation Square and views across the river to South bank were awesome.

United KingdomNothing we had a fantastic stay
The staff were absolutely amazing! Very attentive, friendly and helpful. We really had a fantastic stay here. We had a beautiful view from our hotel room and the room was clean and well spaced and had comfortable beds. There is also a really good hot and cold breakfast selection and the location is perfect for new tourists as its really central and close to the station as well.

New ZealandPerfect location, nice room, quiet. Just a bit dated, older style TVs, no wifi etc, bathroom was small and hard to get in and out of the shower. Good water pressure and the A/C work very well. Door locks stopped opening on our third day but they were happy to unlock it on demand for the rest of our star. Overall very nice.
