Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustraliaThe check in/reception desk was never staffed. We always had to wait for a staff member to track down a different staff member to help us. At one point, there were six of us waiting at the desk for assistance.
Amazing location. Ask for a room at the back and you won’t hear the DJ.

United KingdomThere was no staff on arrival no one started until 9:30 am. It would be. I’ve to drop your bags of like every other hotel. Nobody made up the roomtge entire time of my stay. There were no staff around. But when I did see someone they were friendly and very polite. For the price of the room there needs to be greater attention to the customers experience. And made the bed and clear towels.
Great location it’s an old hotel that’s been nicely renovated

AustraliaUnfortunately the room wasn't clean and needed dusting. Bedside tables were full of things which could've been elsewhere in the room or just aren't necessary any more (I moved the phone to the floor to create enough space to charge a phone). There was no light in the shower so you had to rely on light from other rooms.
Good hotel, very loud at night (stayed on weekend) but that was known before and earplugs provided.

AustraliaUnfortunately entire hotel section had no internet during my stay which the staff tried their best to manually check in guests etc. 4 out of 5 times they had to find the receptionist to help me or to store baggage. Reception desk was mostly unmanned. It was in a noisy busy area but honestly I did not have an issue sleeping. Ear plugs were provided but not needed.
Good location and great vibe as was on top of a local pub. I was upgraded to a nice room, plenty of space and clean. Staff were helpful and friendly.

AustraliaThe advertised noise was more and went longer than expected - did it really have to be that loud?! No way suitable for dinner either. It would have been more bearable if the TV in the room was set up properly - only one channel available with pixelated interruptions to it - unwatchable - so not even able to distract from the relentless “rave/dance” beat.
Compact yet clean and attractive rooms, comfy bed and amenities, interesting decor with a nod to history, great Sydney location.
