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...).

AustraliaGreat hotel and a good location and an excellent room. We found the stuff not as helpful as we would’ve expected. They were polite but on at least two occasions they gave us wrong directions but where to go? It wasn’t a big issue but it was just a bit surprising. Overall a good hotel which I would recommend and return to

New ZealandThe lighting in the bathroom wasn't very bright for makeup. We had a staff member walk in on us in the morning and not long after we checked in. Which had it been 5 minutes earlier, it could have been quite awkward 😅 but we would stay again so dislikes aren't a major..
The location was perfect. Staff were lovely. Facilities were great, really good gym/ spa/sauna/pool area. Cleanliness was exceptional and most comfortable bed and pillows we've slept on in a while. Roof top bar was nice, and staff were very accomdating. They had 3 guests who were being quite rude and they handled it so calmly. Views from the rooftop and breakfast were really nice. Breakfast was ok. I love a buffet so was looking forward to it. Great omlettes cooked fresh for you. but the other hot food like eggs bacon and sausages were average. Selection of pastrys and breads were great and fresh fruit. 11am check out was ideal too. We will definitely be back to stay when we return to Auckland.

New ZealandThe design of the bathroom is absurd. There is a sliding glass door that either closes the shower or the toilet but not both at the same time. The division between the shower and toilet is a piece of glass that stops way short of the ceiling. Have the designers never used a toilet before?

PortugalI would have wanted a slightly nicer speaker to play some music from my phone. They had some old rickety thing that sounded pretty awful. Though I can imagine they don't want people blasting loud music in their hotel rooms, I just like listening to Jazz at a reasonable volume while chilling with a glass of wine :)
I was our first time at a 5 star hotel so we don't have much to compare it to but we had a great time at so/Auckland. The staff were all lovely and helpful. The room they gave smelled like bleach as it was very recently cleaned and my wife really didn't like that so they immediately found us another room that was to our liking. They were also very accommodating and generous when we asked for a room with a double bed after we booked twin beds by mistake. There was no hesitation and no issues, great service! The room had a bath and a shower even though it wasn't very large. that was really nice I really enjoyed using the Gym, sauna, pool and hot tub. I had it practically to myself which was cool. It was a much earned vacation for my wife and I without the kids, first time in 8 years! So we were so grateful for everything the hotel offered, mostly not being with the kids for 2 nights LOL :) Location is excellent! we walked to the harbour, to our restaurant, to the cocktail bar. Very convenient

New ZealandThe location of the bath and toilet wasn't for me, being in the same room as the bed. I felt uncomfortable using both of these due to the minimal/lack of privacy. The sauna was small, and the jacuzzi could do with a small upgrade.
The staff were great and made you feel comfortable on check-in! The bed was comfy, and the complementary mini bar was a great touch! The location was perfect and I would highly recommend the restaurant.
