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.).

AustraliaNothing really.
The Carlton hotel is located opposite Raffles Hotel and on another corner there is an excellent shopping centre with many restaurants and food outlets which provided food and meals at varying price levels. There is a Marks & Spencer store as well as a variety of high end shops. The hotel had an excellent swimming pool which was most welcome after a humid day in Singapore. The room was large and very comfortable with excellent facilities.

Amazing location- right near City Hall MRT and next door to Raffles but a 10 minute walk to Marina Bay. Room was spacious and clean, as was the hotel. Didn't have much interaction with the hotel team (we didn't have any problems) but they were pleasant.

SingaporeThe view of the hotel room which I was assign facing back of the hotel in front of a construction site. It will be good if the room assign was facing city view. Socket plug in room not enough only 2 infront study table it will be perfect if you can install 2 more at both bedside.
Location of the hotel. Easy to travel around. 3 MRT station nearby hotel surrounding.

AustraliaBreakfast was too expensive ($40 pp) so we sadly opted for a McDonalds instead. Would have loved to experience eating in though.
Size of room and bathroom , the furnishings, speedy lift, quiet calmness of common areas, friendly staff. I was able to check into my room early (11am) and check out later (1pm) which I really appreciated as it assisted me to manage my jet lag from my flights more effectively. Handy to catch a taxi outside with concierge.

AustraliaHonestly nothing. The location was excellent, directly across the road from the Singapore underground, Raffles shopping center and german bar. Also the famous Raffles long bar was 2 minutes walk away.
When we arrived we were upgraded for free to a premier room on the second to top floor which was awesome. The room was very spacious with a great view, it even had a window bench to enjoy the view. The room was extremely clean with great facilities.

United Arab EmiratesThe entire stay was really good, clean rooms, confortable beds and really good breakfast. A bonus for the hotel is that we forgot a necklace in our room after the checkout, and when i contacted the hotel, they prompt responded and have secured the item and sent back to me. Definetly recommended.

MalaysiaAs a business hotel, I expect that there would be more privacy catered for a twin sharing room. Unfortunately, it falls short in this area especially on the toilet and bathroom. The bathroom is deisgned with the clothes hung outside the bathroom, and I could not keep my clothes dry inside the bathroom while the rain shower is turned on. The toiletries are also not up to the 5-star standard as seen in other hotels.
Staff are really friendly, and facilites are all easily accessible by the fast lifts. Amenities in the room are clean. Foods are typical of Singapore's high standard.

We really were thankful for your friendly and helpful staff. Special mention we would like to make is Ester, first helped us in the breakfast room and then every where we met in the hotel, right up to our departure. She told us she has worked there for 16 years. She is a real asset and we loved her care. Please recognise her for.this. A reason to return. A huge shout out too the taxi man, room cleaner, bag man and the waiter in the evening in the restaurant. They all make your hotel a great place to stay. Robyn Bacon and Michael Cochrane
