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.).

AustraliaMaylands is a hidden gem located in New Town. Close to the heart of Hobart, Maylands offers guests 5-Star suites within a magnificent mansion built in the 1880s. As a listed heritage building it does not have lifts but our suitcases were carried up two flights of stairs by the most pleasant young man who greeted us on arrival. There is plenty of on-site parking available.

AustraliaThe continent breakfast a bit bland (no eggs or warm food) but we were informed a chef will be joining soon, which should improve what is on offer for breakfast.
The rooms are spacious, the hotel itself is gorgeous, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.

AustraliaIt git a little blowy one night due to the weather which woke us with the blinds banging against the window. Not a serious concern though and not a fault of the accommodation
Absolutely everything. Gorgeous room, super comfy beds, lovely view and amazing bathroom! Very roomy too. Continental breakfast was lovely too with awesome service from Bojan. It was perfect for our girls weekend away celebrating my daughter’s upcoming wedding. Bojan and Jake were amazing looking after us as well. Nothing was too much trouble. Greatly appreciated ☺️

AustraliaThe breakfast menu was no longer by the looks of it. Which was a shame, I talked it up to my company. Plus the treat & tea before bed did not deliver as per the guest book noted.
The staff were friendly and welcoming. Access to lodge was ideal, via different entrances for trips back and forth to car.

Singaporemy only hope was i could able to know how to access the microwave for some late night dinner
It was a really lovely and unique place. We had a late check in, but the operator left us a thoughtful letter to welcome us. They are also very nice to upgrade us to a bigger ground level room. It was a very spacious, clean and beautiful room. Every corner of the house was nicely decorated and picture perfect. They even have the floor heating system to keep you warm. The shower room was big and very relaxing to have a warm bath after a long day of travel. The TV allows u to turn to face the bed and enjoy Netflix. Overall, it was wonderful place to have a great rest. The house seems to be a historical building, it was decorated with beautiful artworks the local artists. And when you climb up to the tower top, we can see the beautiful overview of Hobart.
