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 ZealandPhenomenal hotel and experience. Howard (Howie) made our stay so incredibly comfortable and went out of his way to make sure we were happy with everything we needed. Rooms were stunning, beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable. Would definitely come back to stay time and time again.

United KingdomMy rain shower didn’t work particularly well. The lights were overcomplicated and difficult to use. But the most important thing that was missing was storage space. There is room to hang up shirt, jackets, and trousers, but no drawers for other items of clothing. Also, if you are traveling for work, there isn’t actually a desk to sit and use.
I love the contemporary looking and feel. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The bar and restaurant was lovely and good value. Fantastic location.

United StatesRoom is quite small. There are no drawers for your clothes and very few hangers are provided. Ice buckets not provided and when requested you get one without a top. Ice melts very quickly. I had reserved room INCLUDING breakfast but was told breakfast was not included. I had to provide my confirmation email to prove that breakfast was indeed included. Hotel added an additional charge for using credit card to pay bill which was not mentioned anywhere in my booking.
Location is excellent. Hotel is well maintained.

The location is great with lots of shops, cafes and restaurants in the immediate vicinity. My room was very quiet and ready when I checked in at 12.30pm which was brilliant. The restaurant is very pleasant with delicious and very fresh fish dishes

New ZealandArrived on waitangi day and absolutely no food/ drink service available which was disappointing as we really just needed a rest and had planned on staying in that night and eating at their restaurant. Should have been communicated to us prior to arrival. Close to places to get food however.

United StatesUnclear where the valet dropoff or front door was at first, valet in general needed a bit of backup as the wait was long
There’s something special when you walk in, super refreshing (was later told it was the signature scent), beautifully designed, the rooms are lovely, staff was so kind, and nice that you can have a coffee in the gorgeous lobby - an extension of the restaurant.
