Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

New ZealandThere was no one on reception when we left, the other staff tried to help but couldn't, we were only after a copy of the invoice, so it wasn't the end of the world.

New ZealandGreat little hotel right on the edge of Hagley Park and just a short walk from the city centre and the large Riccarton Shopping District. The hotel offers a well equipped room at quite a decent rate. The manager was very friendly and helpful as we arrived a bit early after an international flight. Room was spacious, bed was comfy and bathroom modern with everything nice and clean. Location is great too if you don't mind a short walk. If you want to go further bus stops are within a couple of hundred metres too. Great spot. We'll be back when we come to Christchurch.

New ZealandIt was too noisy - all of the noise of the cars driving past - the boy racers - was very audible in the room. No dishwashing liquid to do the dishes ... had to just use water to clean the mugs.
I thought that the facilities were excellent - great sized room, really comfortable. The desk was great, allowed me to do some work during my stay.

New ZealandProbably due for an update and some maintenance. There seemed to be a lack of attention to detail by staff/cleaners. There was some staining on the bed linen, the AC didn’t cool the room; felt more like a fan, not enough coffee sachets provided for duration of the stay, an old beer bottle of cigarette butts left on the balcony from past guests I’m assuming, etc. which has been my experience in the past also when staying here for work. Overall they could improve the standards with a little care, upkeep, and attention to detail.
Handy location that’s close to lots of restaurants, shops, and the park. Also quiet despite how close it is to the road.

New ZealandThe staff don't help much or have a 24-hour phone service, and they don't seem friendly too. Parking also a problem because they don't mention parking to you. And you are at risk of getting towed and also a car getting broken into. And when they say F and G . G parking lot looks abandoned or broken down , also there was a car that blocked that entrance. And very strict place.
It was a nice room that had nice bed and big
