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.).

AustraliaI was only there one night :-( wish i could have stayed longer!
I Love the Sarayi Boutique Hotel. We have stayed there several times. This was my first time staying there on my own but it did not disappoint. Love the central location. Love the large rooms. Love the reasonable room rates.

AustraliaThe room was not entirely clean as there was still some grit on the floor and the side tables looked like they needed a wipe. The bed was quite firm, but surprisingly I slept well. There was no mattress topper on the bed, so you could feel the bump where the single beds were joined. It wasn't an issue for me, but if I'd had a partner, it would have been. It would have been good if they had pressure sprayed the dust off tables and chairs at the back courtyard area you get with the dog friendly rooms. It would have been nice to sit there with my breakfast. The light outside the room was quite bright at night, some curtains are needed as well as the blinds don't do a lot. And to top it off, my shower ran out of hot water mid-way through, no hot water came out even when I had completely turned off the cold. Pretty pricey too for what it is.
The room was spacious, with a large built-in wardrobe. There was a kettle and toaster in the room which was great. And being on the Esplanade, the location was fantastic.

AustraliaWe were lucky to run into a staff member as we arrived to check us in. Didn't see anyone at the office again. No opportunity to get pool towels. Which had a $3 hire fee. The apartment was reasonably clean but had a tile on wall over shower covered in pubic hairs. That was very disappointing. The upstairs rooms are only accessible by stairs. Pool is rooftop so must be able to make way up stairs to access pool. The bedroom was small but modern. Lots of pillows supplied. The blind was not block out so room very light early in morning unfortunately. Could do with a curtain too. The bed was not comfortable quite hard so both woke up sore.
Loved the location on the beach front of Palm Cove. The one bedroom with spa was lovely room with a nice sized lounge and kitchen. Modern. Nice view from balcony. The pool was cool and over looking the mountains at rear of property.

AustraliaCharged a $200 bond which we still haven’t received 3 days after check out despite being reassured it was released the day we departed. I don’t know why but this always happens when I have to pay a bond so I don’t blame the hotel directly, it’s just a super frustrating process because I have to chase it up. $200 also seemed pretty steep considering the room rate was only about $140 and we found food in the fridge from previous guests.
We’d booked another property in Palm Cove for the week but needed an overnight stay somewhere close by the night before due to a very late flight so Sarayi was just perfect for that. Staff really friendly and efficient, easy after hours check in process. We were called to let us know we’d accidentally left a pillow behind - thank you!
