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 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.).

AustraliaHokulani is our home away from home. This would be our 6th or 7th stay here and we try to stay for at least 2 weeks. The rooms are comfortable, clean and equipped with everything you need for your stay with or without children. We love that the rooftop pool isn’t too deep and our young children can play safely. The staff are always warm and welcoming and happy to help.

United StatesThe elevator doesn't have any buttons on the inside. You select your floor on the card reader on the outside. BUT, the card reader does not know how many people are in the party. So one-time we had to stop at floors that no one got off because they were not in the elevator. Funny.
The manager on duty made sure our luggage came to our room ASAP. They have several washer/dryers on each floor so we had clean clothes when we got home. The rooms are beautiful.

United StatesCentral location close to all the shopping and food at Waikiki as well as being walking distance to the beach. Access to the hotel was a bit hidden but that allowed the hotel to feel less public and more private. Room sizes were great, loved the kitchenette and dishwasher, small fridge, stove. Also loved the suite arrangement and staff were great. Note that there is no turn over service while you stay there but you can get new towels, etc from the housekeeping.

We travelled with our almost one year old and the room worked perfectly for us. Kitchen facilities were excellent and it was perfect having a seperate bedroom and a bathroom with both bath and shower. The whole suite, including all kitchen items were immaculately clean as well and although we were next to the laundry room and close to the lifts our room was super quiet all the time. Free washer/dryer facilities were a super handy added bonus. Staff were very friendly and helpful at all times and accommodated us with an early check in. The rooftop pool/bar set up was really well done and never too busy, yes the pool is just a plunge pool but it still did the trick and with the great views you really can't complain. Location was great with the beach an easy 5-10 min walk (either Fort DeRussy or Waikiki) or 15mins to the Hilton lagoon and close to all shops and restaurants. This was our fourth visit to Waikiki and our first in this hotel, I would definitely recommend it.

United StatesThe pool was a little small, but not quite a big deal when there's a whole ocean nearby.
The staff were super friendly and helpful. Valet was always on top of things and Susan at the front desk was very sweet to everyone. She also gave my daughter a little cookie and was very informative. The room was very clean and had just about everything we could ask for.

United StatesAFter the bad start (not due to anything your hotel did) - we were very happy - from the car service to the hotel employees - everyone was extremely polite and helpful -
I will try to be short - when we booked we thought we were part of Hilton Hawaiian Village - (long story- very disgusted with booking.com) - anyhow - The hotel clerk Susan was extremely polite, courteous and helpful. We were very unhappy by time we arrived - and she actually calmed us down - and was able to get us to stay - and see the room and made us glad we listened to her and stayed

AustraliaWe were there 6 nights and had our room serviced once. We knew the pool would be small, but it was smaller than we imagined so we didn't use it. But it was nice to go up to the roof to see the view. We had no view from our room. But we did greatly enjoy the calm sitting around the pool and the cabanas and the cocktails we ordered were delicious.
Super convenient location that was surprisingly quiet. Normally we stay at the Village but this time we decided to change it up and are pleased we had the experience. Extremely clean and well resourced rooms including a dishwasher! Small but good assortment of crockery and cutlery for the odd meal eaten in room. Pull out couch for daughter was too uncomfortable so she just slept on the sofa. The double beds were good but obviously small. Quiet and safe and super clean.

New ZealandNothing. Everything met our expectations, and in some cases, more than.
Every staff member we engaged with was helpful, friendly, aloha spirit embodied. Room we booked was great! Clean, tidy, well maintained with ample wardrobe & drawer space. Bed was comfy, not too soft or hard. Power plug on top of each bed side table so we didn't have to search for one. Kitchen had options we didn't end up using, however glad to have had the cooking options. Fridge had good space. Loved having the bath & shower options for our stay. Bath was great if doing a fare amount if walking/hiking & need a soak, & shower had heaps of room with a large shower head, good pressure. Note our room had the water filling the tub from the roof. Valet parking team were fantastic! Easy access to street from lobby & lower lobby. Starbucks right across from us with other great eats within a 5-10 min stroll. Beach access was easy to find.
