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...).

CanadaI had a good visit. I've stayed here dozens of times. The price is getting high though. The hot tub maintenance appears to be poor... wasn't hot, jets poor
The Keg restaurant is in the building, consistent, tasty food and a warm atmosphere

CanadaThe room could have been a bit cleaner (I felt it needed to be vacuumed before we went in). The tea cups and kettle were dusty. In my opinion, everything should be well cleaned before guests enter.

IrelandThe rooms were spotlessly clean and very comfortable and spacious. The Wifi was not working in the room but I was able to avail of work space off the reception area which was great. I would describe the pool as a large Hot Tub not a swimming pool.. Saying that I would love to have stayed longer and would certainly go back.

CanadaReally nothing much only if breakfast could be a part of the package.
Overall it was an awesome experience. We were bit concerned as we couldn't get room in the hotel where our conference was. However it turned out to be a gr8 alternate. The location, rooms , price and the exceptional staff all were enough to checkout with a smiling face after 3 days.😃. We will certainly stay again on our next visit.

United KingdomPoor communication between staff teams caused issues - being told off like children for drinking 'in the wrong place' (when directed there) was unnecessary. Rooms were clean but communal areas could be better.
Great location - very handy for local bus and ski shuttle, and a short walk into town. Lovely hot pool - like a huge jacuzzi.

CanadaThe advertised pool was a little misleading. My daughter was looking forward to it, only to find out when we arrived it was only a large hot tub.
The room was clean and quiet. The hotel was within walking distance, and the underground parking was great.

United KingdomOpen access to any member of the public to hotel room corridors. Not enough towels for number of guests in room - had to ask daily for more towels as the cleaners kept taking them. Broken toilet, not adequately fixed during our stay - small attempt made to fix but broke straight after. Not hotels fault but don't rely on free ski shuttle as it often does not stop for pick ups. Also not very regular so having our car was necessary. Avoid hotel restaurant for breakfast (buffet option). We arrived 10mins after breakfast started and the buffet was a poor selection and awful quality - hot food was over cooked and soggy. Much nicer food available up the mountain or in the main village for a similar price. No air con (heating option only). We had the window open for the duration of our stay and the fan going. Not a major deal but would have preferred cooling option too.
Pool and sauna was great - especially around dinner time 5-6pm when it was quieter. Rooms were good sized and well equipped (fridge, kettle, etc). Plenty of storage for clothing and luggage. Toiletries provided in the bathroom were a lovely touch and great quality. Secure parking. Computer and printer free to use which was great for our Banff Park Pass. Restaurant in hotel lovely for dinner and drinks. Staff friendly. Cosy lobby area Overall a brilliant stay!

CanadaRooms were claustrophobically small, even the toilet was angled into the sink my legs had to be angled out into the tub to sit down. Our bed didn’t have a fitted sheet, sheets were insanely stiff and starchy.
Gave me zero issues Paying damage deposit with debit credit card which was such a relief. Can’t stand when hotels won’t accept them. Hotel was very adult friendly.

CanadaSome of the staff seemed as though they really didn’t want to be there. Smiles and acknowledgement of hotel guests go a long way to setting the overall tone; however there are some really great people working there, albeit a small majority. Rooms are starting to look a little dated when compared to other hotels down Banff Avenue. Not a lot for young children to do other than the pool. For the price it’s becoming less and less reasonable every time we stay here. Unsure if we would go back and we’ve been staying here for almost a decade on our trips to Banff!
Good location and food in the restaurant was incredible. Beds are comfortable and rooms spacious enough for a young family of four.

CanadaIt’s a great hotel, but the spa was a complete rip off. The masseuses were late to our 12pm appointment, finally got in at 12:10 Rushed our massages to finish at 1.00pm It just sucked feeling them rushing , they did not even try to hide it, almost getting really rough moving my limbs in their haste to complete. Hubby did not even get scalp or feet touched. The pedi’s were worse. I had to redo my polish at home it was so bad. The technician was fresh out of school , when I am paying 75 bucks for a pedicure , you better know what you doing!!
