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...).

New ZealandThe only thing lacking was that only one towel was supplied per person and there was no where to hang our wet towels or bath mat to dry between uses. We were going out so needed to shower before and in the morning, so this was a downfall and would be easily fixed.
The hotel felt luxurious. The entrance decor, and the room fittings. Lovely to have a Nespresso and tea selections in the room, glasses etc. Breakfast at the dining room was delicious and if we were staying longer we would have liked to have dinner or a drink there too.

AustraliaFantastic - decore, staff (attentive, prompt, warm). Hoping this doesn't go public but the workmanship on the build appears to be poor which is disappointing and means the property will look tired in time. Very unfortunate for the owner.

New ZealandDeluxe suite with hot tub. Very nice room, everything gave off that high end feel, perfect for a couple’s getaway. However, the barn door that should close the bathroom didn’t stay closed at all which wasn’t ideal. The outdoor area, although nice, lacked privacy as upstairs onlookers were watching us, the walls that separate us from the rooms next to us are white w circular patterned holes making the next door occupants able to see you and vice versa, defeating the relaxing experience a hot tub often gives. The location defeated the luxury feel having old run down houses right across the street and the view from the hot tub is just the motorway, also the umbrella next to the hot tub was broken. Bed was super comfortable but the pillows gave me a sore neck. TV was easy to connect to.

New ZealandWhatever is used to clean the floors leaves them sticky if you are walking in bare feet - have noticed this several times when we stay. Rooms over looking the hot tubs are a little too intimate.
The restaurant is lovely, rooms are great. Parking is fairly easy. Beds are comfortable, staff are very helpful.

New ZealandHotel is actually not that modern unlike the photos portray. Decor and fit out has been done ok, but reminds me of a budget hotels trying to be fancy in Bangkok. It’s ok to crash for a night or two, if you need to be somewhere close by. My wife and I found it very strange that a hotel like this would be located where it is, as it wasn’t in keeping with surroundings. It felt like it is not in a very nice area and we felt valet parking was a must (which we did) but at $35 it was overpriced. We actually booked this by mistake thinking we’d booked SO Hotel in AKL CBD, so obviously we were going to be disappointed. Even still, it’s not great value for money for the standard and location IMO. Aside, it was however interesting to watch people making out in the hot tub directly below our window and very strange how there was no privacy for them!! 🫣

United KingdomUnfortunately, the location is not what you would expect for the ambience of the hotel. It's disappointing that on our visit that the drinks menu was limited. The selection of wine on the menu was not available, along with no draught beer. The bathroom extract was like a jet engine. Over designed, resulting in excessive noise. On-site parking is an additional cost, which should be included, especially in such a location. The bar , restaurant Facilities closed 2100hrs, which is not what you want to hear after a long day travelling. Though, this closure time seems to be standard throughout New Zealand.
The hotel and rooms were decorated to a lovely high standard. Friendly, welcoming staff, who were apologetic, for what seems to be let down by the resource planning management team.

United KingdomThe area is not the best, it's quite industrial and the shops near are pretty run down. There was a week long funeral in one of the houses opposite and one night there was a fight. Breakfast was expensive for what it was, a saucer of instant coffee ( when they have nice coffee machines in the rooms) Not much for vegetarians in the cooked range, pastries were not amazing. The room cleaning was often late in the afternoon which was annoying. We added a day to our stay Infront of our long booking and although we had much correspondence on this app beforehand our cards still had to be recharged twice.
The hotel room was lovely, comfy beds, good shower, lovely balcony with a view of the sky tower. A great selection of tea and coffee, there was even a Nespresso type machine with some pods.
