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...).

AustraliaIf you play AFL or NRL in the bar on the weekend I would spend more money watching the games.
Stay here once a year for work and it’s always great. Love staying on the street side so I can sit on the balcony and watch the world go by. Great views and always something happening. Complimentary breakfast is great and the menu is varied enough. Staff are very friendly. Great place to stay.

AustraliaThe bathroom smelt bad occasionally and the shower was on off hot and cold. The biggest disappointment is the lack of cars available for rental- they seem to be sold out consistently
Staff make the place how it is, give it its personality. We stayed over new year and they put on a spread that was so tasty! Live music on the weekend aswell

AustraliaBeing in the centre of town means that you have to go a distance or do tours to find a pretty place. Town itself is hot and stinky, but this hotel is the oasis!
The hotel was centrally located in town so was good for getting your bearings and changing money, hireing a car etc before setting off elsewhere. An oasis in the mayhem. It also had nice pool and good menu. Comforable rooms and general area with a good bar!

New ZealandThere was some confusion about airport shuttles - no response to a request for one, then when booked for departure, it was not clear the fee was charged by the hotel so ended up paying twice. Staff also charged room for meal after I specifically asked them not to. Clearer communication needed about charges.
Room was spacious and clean. Restaurant was nice. Breakfast was basic but ok. Staff at front desk were very helpful when booking tours

AustraliaBreakfast was a bit limited.
We travelled for scuba diving so this hotel was great because the dive shop was based at the hotel. We were picked up promptly every day and taken to the dive site. The hotel is close to everything in town. Very close to the free ferry going over to the neighboring island where you can snorkel and enjoy a break from town. The breakfast was very basic with fruit, toast and cereal only. A buffet would have been preferable but you can pay extra and get a bigger hot breakfast. The lunches and dinners at the onsite restaurant were very good and the service was excellent compared with other restaurants on the island. We had a large room which was cleaned well every day. The hotel had a very social feel about it. The staff were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend the hotel to anyone.

Chef has 20 years experience on cruise line, menu was exceptional. All staff were friendly, efficient and happy. Accommodation was very comfortable, including bedding and pillows. Continental breakfast was included. Lovely pool and bar, outdoor dining, gardens. Location was convenient, bakery across the street. Staff made sure we were safe and secure during Cyclone Lola arrival by supplying towels, flashlights, water. Meals delivered to our room during that unsafe time. Hotel has a generator in case of power outage.

AustraliaThe only downfall for us was that we didn’t bring enough food with us, as we didn’t realise ou booking mistake until the last minute. But, as I said, a great mistake! The hot plates (with gas) were a bit tricky to turn on, but ask for a demo!
This property was wonderfully quiet, surrounded by nature and cows at the back. The snorkelling was five stars, saw a turtle, seahorses and many many kinds of fish. We booked this place by accident, thinking we were booking the Aore Island Resort… This was a wonderful mistake, as we had the place to ourselves! We took a trip to the resort for one afternoon and it was nice to use their restaurant. However, this made us appreciate our quiet surroundings, as everyone was babbling away on their phone in the restaurant… Also, the bed (two huge singles next to each other) was huge! Cooking facilities were good and we even had good tv reception and Netflix (not that you need this in Paradise though!). Staff was very friendly and helpful!!!

AustraliaThe bathroom, although spotlessly clean, was a little bit of a squeeze, trying to get round the door in the small area almost took an acrobatic feat..
It was so nice to come down to breakfast each morning and be personally greeted by Gaetan and his friendly staff. A perfect start to the day. The tropical fruit and pastries and freshly brewed coffee were so nice.
