How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe Location is spectacular and the hotel is in a very peaceful location. The staff are lovely and helpful too, and there is a bar and a restaurant at the hotel that serves flavoursome home-cooked style food. The rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean. Free and ample parking is also available at this hotel, which was appreciated. Its a golf course hotel, so its very much geared to golfers needs, understandably! The Golf Course by the way is stunning!
The bed was uncomfortable and so unfortunately I didn't have a very good night's sleep. I also missed breakfast which was part of the price. I didn't realise it ended at 9.30 am as departure was 10.30 am (noone told us). The first time we stayed here, two years ago, I recall the bed being much more comfortable than it was this time, though we did pay for a superior room on that occasion. I also thought the room (we got the last room) was on the expensive side (well over $400 AUD) for the night in lieu of the overalll quality of accommodation and facilities.

Verified reviewLocation/ view, quiet
I was really really annoyed by being woken up at 1.15 am the night before by the text from your electronic check in system. It ruined what was(for many reasons) a vital night’s sleep for me . Not everyone can put their phones on silent overnight…

Poor quality of bed, carpet , furniture. Wardrobe not long enough to hang a dress. Poor breakfast. Not given a breakfast menu so didn’t know there was porridge. Stewed tea in a Cona coffee pot. Cheap sausages and bacon.

Verified reviewLocation was excellent, staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was more than adequate.
I think a small fridge in the room would have been a useful item to have. Didn’t like the pillows but this is obviously a personal choice of what your prefer.

Verified reviewThe hotel was very nice. Location for the wedding venue we were attending was great. Staff were extremely friendly
I felt for the price of the room maybe the breakfast could be more upmarket. The hot items were good but the continental items could have been much better and healthier. Maybe some natural yogurt, cut fresh fruit some cold meats and cheese.
