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...).

AustraliaWe stayed at The Motley while in town for The Formula 1. After staying in city centre the past few times we decided on The Motley in Richmond due to it's location. Outlet shopping stores nearby, Coles down the road and a tram stop right outside the door. The hotel itself was gorgeous upon entering. Staff super friendly upon check-in and we enjoyed the free drink cards upon arrival. We made great use out of the Red Bull "Pit Stop" and goodie bags supplied each day over the weekend - it was a nice touch! We also made a reservation at Miss Parker's one night and thoroughly enjoyed the food, decor and atmosphere. Although portion sizes were smaller than expected, we could not fault the food itself. Delicious. Table service was fantastic! Sharp and attentive and made us feel warm welcomed. The room had modern facilities, was spacious for 2, clean and vibrant. After walking about all day in Melbourne we come back to unwind using the large shower.. soft bathrobe.. The bed was comfortable, a tad too soft for my liking but that is just a personal preference :) Since returning from our trip I highly recommend The Motley to everyone I know. Thank you Motley team. You were fantastic! We were surely impressed with how much thought and care you have put into this for all your guests. We are certain we will come stay again.

United KingdomThe twin room I booked was made up as a king bed instead of as a twin but the staff acted quickly and corrected the error. Would have loved a biscuit in the room.
Lovely decoration, great beds, lovely bathroom. Loved the coffee machine in the room. Very clean. Friendly staff.

AustraliaAircon made cracking/creaking noises all night. There is no phone so you have to use an iPad to order room service, but it never worked so we had to call the hotel from our mobiles to place an order. Ordered hard fried eggs that arrived runny & when ordering the pasties, it was a choice between croissants or chocolate danishes, I asked for croissants but chocolate danishes arrived. So that was a bit disappointing but not a huge problem.
The hotel was really clean and we loved the vibe and funky decor. Staff were lovely too.

IrelandThe bathroom was a wet room which meant once you had a shower, the whole bathroom floor was wet. Given the nature of a wet room, this is inevitable, however the drains could have been designed better.
The staff were lovely. The beds were very comfortable. The location is great with the tram right outside the front door.
