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...).

AustraliaThat we didn't have more time to take advantage of the amazing facilities and enjoy our room!! 🤣
The room was stunning, well equipped and comfortable. The location was fantastic in terms of access to Town Beach. We also walked to Port City Bowling Club for dinner with friends.

AustraliaIt was a shame the restaurant was not open. The room we had on the 1st floor was near the bottom laundry and in the morning when it was used it became very noisy because of the draft between the entry door to excess our room and the laundry door.
Room was clean and adequate for our needs. Location suited our needs. Staff were friendly and very accomodating. Very enjoyable break.

AustraliaThe room was old and tied nothing like picture when booking, the view was blocked by solid walls and represented nothing like the glass balustrade pictures, paid over $250 for the night expecting a whole lot more, should have booked another hotel at a lot cheaper price.
The location was perfect.

AustraliaI don't know what's happened to Mantra lately but the places we have stayed in, including this one have very grubby communal areas. Awful carpets, grubby paint/walls. The carpark spaces are too small. The only way I could describe the cheap, old and nasty furnishings is depressing. It's a shame because it's an excellent location. The place needs sprucing up. Beds were uncomfortable.

Best holiday ever! Amazing views and location. The most spacious apartment we have ever stayed in. Facilities were neat and clean and 2 bathrooms was awesome. Highly recommend for families and we can't wait to stay here again. Coffee shop directly below the building and walk on to a swimming beach with lifeguards. Perfect spot. Kids couldn't get enough of the swimming pool.

AustraliaI booked a ocean view room. I wanted to relax and enjoy the view. Only to find two high stools with no cushions. Upon booking in I told your receptionist not to use the card I booked in to pay for the rooms and I would supply another card. She didn't do what I asked now I have overdrawn charges on my card.

AustraliaSee previous comments.
Location was great. Room neat with nice balcany view of park and townbeach. However room was in a "battle ax" configuration. The 2 Ajoining guest rooms' doors made a hell of a racket opening and closing. Plus we discovered that we had a laundry next to us. So constant opening and closing of those doors and cleanining staff talking as early as 6.30am was annoying. So i recommend all future guests have booking qualified as to where their room is located and what service rooms are adjacent. We were in room 101/2. To finish on a positive, we have stayed at the Mantra Observatory on 3 other occassions in last 4yrs and our apartments (on higher levels) were excellent. PS Staff at front desk and the cleaning staff were cheerful and friendly.
