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.).

SingaporeRooms might need some updating. Bathroom is not convenient for twin sharing. i.e. non couples it is normally left open and when enclosed it is via slated timber sliding doors which have some gaps that allow viewing angles into the toilet if one tries peek in. Definitely not something non-couples would be comfortable with.
The service here is excellent, the staff are well trained and always make you feel at home. We like it so much that we have stayed here repeatedly over many years. The standard is still very high. Breakfast is a great highlight, because it is a sit down ala carte buffet where you are served from a menu of both international and local food fare. Extremely dishes and a definite highlight for each stay. YTL resorts definitely rate among the highest standards of service we have ever experienced.

United Kingdom-The general atmosphere was fairly average. -Check in was extremely poor, with unwelcoming, curt, staff not helping the situation - bad first impression! -It was all just fine, whereas we expected a bit more, especially with it having been recommended by others. -Bar was an extension of the walkway to the rooms, which didn’t make it very inviting.
-The rooms were pleasant, with really nice pillows on the bed, and a super shower! -It was easy enough to find and nice to be able to park for free. -The breakfast al la carte menu had some good options, with the nasi lemak being a particular favourite. -Location in Melaka was good, generally away from the hustle of the town and an easy walk into the main hub. -The mini swimming pool and gym were adequate for training needs. -The staff gave a few good eating options in town.

MalaysiaThe drainage sound was quite loud. We could even hear it from next door whenever they used the taps. The bed frame made noises with creaks during movements. The lift area from the reception counter is at the other building, and requires short distance walking - not really friendly for elderly people; unless assistance provided.
Location was great! Easy to get Grab. Ample parking space. We were warmly greeted by the staffs and escorted to our room. Welcome drink was truly welcoming! Warm black lychee tea. Beds were huge and tremendously comfortable. There was a bolster too! The bath tub and bathroom was strategically designed. Amazing water pressure. Enough towels. Bath area can be opened/ closed. Coffee is by capsules and tastes great. Room service is available 24H. We didn’t make it for breakfast as we woke up late however the guest relations sent us some pastries and food to our room too! Overall highly recommended stay.

MalaysiaCould be time for the mattress to be upgraded although our sleep weren't affected by it. TV channels were old and limited. Android TVs would be the way forward as most would be able to watch Netflix and YouTube streamed to it - perhaps an option when the hotel undergoes a refresh exercise.
Breakfast was scrumptious with plenty of choices from a menu. Service was fantastic and friendly and everyone we encountered served with smiles on their faces. The note and brownie by the GM in conjunction with our Silver Anniversary were nice touches, as were the red cloth on the doorway and folded swans.

SingaporeThe nosie from the pipes in the building could be annoying when your neighbour takes a shower. Other than that, nothing to dislike.
Small and personalised. Uniquely in a peranakan setting. The pool was small but good enough for us. The spa was good as well. All these matched our intention for a 3D2N chillax vacation. Breakfast was a la carte all you can eat, yummy. Front desk staff Anne is very helpful and friendly. She helped us with reservations to popular restaurants and gave us good recommendations.

JapanSome of the staff didn't seem up to par for such a hotel. Although all of the front desk staff were great, especially Greg, the bartenders and other wait staff seemed a little aggressive and unhappy. Notably I went downstairs for a drink and felt like I wasn't welcomed at the bar, not to mention the drink itself wasn't so well put together.
The design and architecture was beautiful.
