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 are 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 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):
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.
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.).

AustraliaThere were no tissues provided. Bathroom basin needs a soap dish, nowhere to put soap. Cutlery minimal, a sharp knife was not included so we bought our own, and left it for the next person. Television reception was appalling each evening. Pixelation so bad we couldn't watch anything.
Liked the bungalow room. Could sleep with windows open for fresh air. Loved the gardens. Very relaxing. A bit expensive but location was great.

FranceThe rooms in the main building are rather charmless but the bungalows appear to be much nicer. They are more expensive but may be worth the upgrade.
The staff were friendly and very helpful and the hotel well located. A plus was the hotel lorikeet was likes to greet guests.

AustraliaFantastic location, couldn't get any better - close to the waterfront, main shopping streets and restaurants. Loved the open style of the resort and being able to sit outside and enjoy the gentle breeze. Rooms were clean and comfortable, looked like they had been recently renovated. Staff friendly and helpful. Also loved the bantam chicken wandering around!

AustraliaThere was some mild road noise as we fronted The Esplanade. However, this was offset by a filtered view of the water.
Modern room with unique hexagonal and tropical character.

AustraliaFeel the price was a little too much considering I was able to book the Hilton Doubletree for 3 nights with breakfast that was the same price as 2 nights without breakfast at Palm City.
Room and facilities are clean, comfortable and spacious. Loved having ability to prepare some light meals in the room. Pool was lovely, staff were excellent, and breakfast was decent for the price. The resident parrot and chicken were entertaining.

SingaporeNothing I didn’t like. They have limited parking space though it wasn’t an issue for us and there is ample parking along the streets which are free on weekends.
Location was very near Darwin cbd where numerous award winning restaurants are within walking distance. Coles and chemist warehouse is just a short walk round the block. It’s also near enough to walk to the waterfront and there is the bicentennial park for morning walks and seeing the sunset. Room was sufficiently big and very comfortable for 3 pax. There were 2 taps making it easy for everyone during the morning rush.
