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...).

United KingdomWith no breakfast included in the rate, it would have been nice to have some crockery and cutlery in the room so that we could have our own food.
Nice unit. Clean and comfortable. Great breakfasts at the Glass House restaurant - but this adds considerably to the daily cost. Made use of the Island explorer buses which picked up just outside our unit.

United KingdomWe arrived at 7pm without a booking - we asked prices at reception and we’re told approx $350 per night - I thought this was expensive so looked on Booking.com for a cheaper option and was told (in a sarcastic tone by the receptionist) “good luck” We did however find one for half the price quoted on the property and we’re told that sometimes it took an hour for the reservation to come through do we said we’d wait in the bar. 10 minutes later the receptionist came over and told us our booking had arrived so we picked up the key etc. the receptionist was very unwelcoming and quite frankly, rude. The room was good but the bed wasn’t that comfortable. When checking out on Sunday morning there was a different receptionist who was very happy and helpful.
It had everything we needed and was clean

United StatesConfusing where to check in. Albeit we didn’t read the email which made it clear where to check in.
This is a hidden gem. The outside doesn’t do it justice. It is clean, bright, quiet and comfortable. You can park outside your doors. Walkable to town and close without the downtown hassle. Liked the fresh towels and coffee refresh during our stay. Really great place for the value.

United StatesThe bathroom was really dated and could've been a bit nicer. It was further out of town than expected so had to drive into Bar Harbor which is a bit of a pain since parking is such a hassle.
Nice grounds for our dog. Room size was nice.

United StatesIf they had a restaurant which served dinner right on sight.
The view was amazing. We could even see first light and sunrise right from our room. The staff were very accommodating. I got sick and stayed in the room one day and asked just for some extra wash clothes, a towel and coffee/tea. There was a nice restaurant with a view right next to our room for breakfast.

United StatesThe bathroom had a small shower with no powered vent. Just a window to open up to the outside.
The location was great. Being able to just walk up some stairs for breakfast and dinner instead of fighting for parking in bar harbor was great. The staff was very helpful and would point out good restaurants for me on a map when I asked for recommendations.

United KingdomIt was a shame that the dining room wasn't open for breakfast on a Tuesday.
The staff were super friendly and went out of their way to help. The room was extremely comfortable, spotless with all the facilities needed. The dining room served a lovely breakfast. The shuttle bus was a great bonus, taking us in and out of the town free of charge..

United StatesThe bartender at the piano bar could have been more attentive. I waited for a second drink at the bar for 15 minutes or more and decided it was hot worth it. Cashed out and left.

AustraliaCarpets needed a steam clean, they looked grubby. No electric jug for tea making. No shelving in bathroom for personal items. A second luggage stand required (we were a couple with 2 bags, only one luggage stand provided)
Room with view over Bar Harbor, just a short stroll from Town/harbor. Room was big enough for 2 people, bathroom a generous size but needed shelf space for our personal items. An electric jug for making tea would have been helpful. We used the urns in reception foyer for this purpose. Easy drive in to unit's parking area/space. Breakfast was excellent too at Looking Glass room.

United StatesShower curtain too short for the shower so the floor gets kinda wet.
It was very convenient to walk downtown and leave our car since everywhere you had to find and pay for parking. Every night of our stay with listened to a beautiful piano player. Our towels were changed every morning since there wasn’t a very good place to hang them. The Looking Glass Restaurant was a very short walk and wonderful breakfast.
