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...).

AustraliaI could quite clearly hear people walking around and babies crying from the upstairs room. This made it difficult for me to stay asleep.
Location to restaurants, and Darling Harbour was in walking distance. Room was nice and very comfortable. Bed was very good to. Front staff was very helpful. Breakfast was nice. I would have like to being able to make my own cuppa as I wanted it and more if I like. Lactose free milk, wasn't an option, only soy milk. Also bake beans and spaghetti would have been good to have included to.

AustraliaOur room is next to the lift, so we can still hear the lift up and down in the morning. The furniture is a bit outdated. There's no USB changer, so I have to use the TV to charge my phone.
The king-size bed is very comfy! My husband had a long trip back to Australia from Europe, so we stayed overnight in the CBD for more rest. He felt rejuvenated after a sound sleep. The breakfast is acceptable, and the freshly made coffee is good.

AustraliaNo Foxtel to watch AFL football. No microwave. A dryer would have been handy for our wet clothes due to being caught in a downpour.
It was comfortable and nice and warm on our arrival. The beds were great and we all slept well. The breakfast we had next morning was extremely nice and the staff were very helpful and friendly.

AustraliaReception staff could be friendlier as that’s the first experience a guest has. They could’ve been more accommating to our simple requests like separating the king bed into 2 single beds, which we had to do ourselves. Or late 12pm checkout which they only offered to extend til 10.30am. For buffet breakfast, more egg options would’ve been good like poached, omelettes or fried, not just scrambled. Some window and door fixtures need to be fixed as it was difficult to open and close the door and window shutters. In-room cable tv should be included not just free to air tv. For a 4 star accommodation, the towels could’ve been larger and better quality. Some utilities werre missing from the in-room list, like a DVD player.
Buffet breakfast was great! The breakfast staff were friendly and professional. They served freshly brewed coffee to your table which was great. Executive Studio Apartments were spacious and clean. Partial Darling Harbour view was good.

New ZealandThey charge a surcharge on all international card payment (credit & debit) which was a surprise for us and it added to the cost.
Clean place. The rooms are small but was ok for us. The beds are small so it was ok as we used another sofa bed. The rooms are very clean, very basic kitchenware (such as few spoons, 1 pot, 1 fry pan) for cooking. It worked out ok for us as we made only basic meals.

IrelandYou advertise heavily great views from each room but we did not find that true in our case (1102). There was a lovely big balcony for our room and adjacent rooms but no furniture or plants on it that seems a shame - it woukd make up for the view issue above.

AustraliaWe had a studio room that was plenty big enough but would’ve liked to be able to see tv from the bed. Nothing major, just a small thing…
The location is perfect, a block from light rail and a block from the access bridge to darling harbour. The add-on breakfast option was definitely well worth it!
