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.).

New ZealandWe weren't aware of the extra resort fee that would be added to our stay till we got there. Also parking was $40 a day.
The hotel was down the quiet end of town, which meant it was more peaceful. The balcony was fantastic too.

United StatesThe house keeping staff was doing just the minimal maintenance. On my departure day, the lady pounded the door 15 minutes before the departure time and asked when I was leaving, which I didn’t feel comfortable with.
The location and facilities are exactly what I need. Steps away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki beach. I like the fact that it’s a boutique hotel with small size guests, which makes me feel more at ease.

United StatesThe only things I can really nit pick are they could add the parking for people with vehicle rentals into the hotel cost. It is an additional $40 a day for parking on property.
This beautiful hotel is less than 100 yards from the beach and has beautiful views of the ocean and diamond head and just a 10 minute walk to the main walk area of Waikiki but far enough to be quite and secluded enough that you are not in the main bustle of tourist. This hotel also offers free bikes that you can take with locks to get around if you don't want to take a vehicle out into Honolulu (I advise you don't as parking inside the city can be hard to find a parking spot). They also offer free beach towels and chairs to take to the beach. Which was a pleasant surprise.

The staff was super nice. Our room was great, we could see the sunrise and sunset! They offered beach chairs , bikes, and other things you may need for your stay. They had a laundry area. There was a small outdoor eating place we really loved. It was a quite area.
