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.).

AustraliaLocal Knowledge of long-term parking. Parking on the street is free from 6pm to 6am every day, Sunday all day. The Wilson has a current weekend discount of $10pd if booked more than 2 hours in advance.
It was very comfortable and warm. Perfect for a one night stay to ferry into Circular Quay.

AustraliaSheets /Laundry being done in the communal sitting atrium area. Piles of linen visible to guests in hallway. Chipped and tired paintwork,visible signs if water leaks in some walls. Fantastic balconies off some guest rooms are a great bonus but let down by the poor presentation and upkeep.
Fantastic little hotel in the best, most central position. Great price. A bit tired , paintwork etc needs a freshen up. Balconies need attention. But as I didn't intend to spend too much time in the room, the price more than compensated for the less than perfect appearances. P.S. A normal size hair-dryer would be a big help though.

AustraliaRoom overlooking the courtyard was great. It was raining heavily and there were, naturally, some heavy dripping noises outside. However, luckily I had ear plugs in my bag and slept soundly! It might be helpful to keep a supply of small earplugs at reception for use by hotel guests if required? A low rack for placing a suitcase on would be beneficial. It could slide in under the existing table.
Lovely and very helpful reception staff on the evening of Tuesday 7 May. Very helpful with maps and advice on Tuesday evening, and promptly calling a cab on request on Wed morning 8 May. It was also helpful knowing that reception staff were on hand 24 hours. I will recommend the Savoy Hotel to my friends.

AustraliaThere is no point paying affordable prices and then complaining the hotel is not the Intercontinental. The plumbing in our room was a little noisy when we showered but totally acceptable. We had lots of room in a family suite with three beds for $260 ish so what is not to love?
The Savoy is something of an institution in the east. There are not many affordable hotels around that location, I think the other hotel nearby is about $2000 a weekend so I am quietly grateful for the Savoy. The staff are cheery, the manager/owner? is lovely. It is a basic hotel, think your ordinary motel across the country but it is in the middle of Double Bay.

AustraliaThere was a noisy drip outside my bedroom that was a bit annoying, could easily be fixed and the bathroom was very small, but the room was lovely and spacious so I guess you can't have everything.
The Savoy was a very convenient location for us as we were going to a concert at Moore Park. The rooms were old style, but very spacious and they provided more than one bed in each room so we had heaps of sleeping options which was fantastic!! Overall it was great value for money, good location and exactly what we neeeded.
