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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

AustraliaThe swimming hours is only until 7pm which we did not enjoy the night. Unlike our stay last year we spent until after 7pm. Hope the hotel will extend the hours in the future to be able to appreciate the nice set up of the swimming pool at night time.

AustraliaThe rooms are tired. No power points at the bedside. No USB charging ports. No smart TV. It is very expensive accommodation for what it is.
The location is only five minutes walk from the terminal. The rooms are spacious. There are restaurants, cafes and bars on site, as well as pools, including those shared with the Mercure, which is adjacent to the Novotel. Toiletries are good. Staff are efficient and friendly.

AustraliaThe rooms were very average. Only provided 3 towels, 4 pillows and light sheets for 4 people. It felt as thought for extra comfort in a very average room, an extra pillow and blanket would have gone a long way.
Location to airport. Shuttle bus service. Pool.

AustraliaThe rooms and hallway / bathrooms were faded, looked dirty and old. Underneath the bench was fill Of dust and old rubbish from other guests. The room was tiny and extremely basic for 350/night, way overpriced. No privacy screen just fill block out blind and curtain, nothing to pull Down to stop people looking in unless full shade was pulled. Accomodation at Mercure and Novotel felt old and dirty. I rang for something for the room and after 8 hours I had to ring again, it was late l was waiting to go to sleep. When it was delivered to room the service guy knocked but barely waited and swiped to get in room!
The new checkin and pool area was gourgess and the outdoor area at the Mercure were beautiful and relaxing
