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.).

Excellent mid city location to big variety of shops, supermarket, cafes and restaurants. Easy walking distance to Te Papa Museum, The Wharves, Cable Car, Beehive Parliament building. Loved having kitchen to make a meal at night. Didn't want to be out on the streets on my own looking for restaurants.

New ZealandThe desk wasn't manned all the time and it wasn't clear when someone would be available however we were able to check in fine. Also one of the lifts was out of order a bit of the time and we ended up taking the stairs. I prefer extra cutlery and crockery etc rather than the exact number to match the occupancy
The almost separate bedroom was great with very comfortable bed, pillows etc. We liked the 9th floor. The outlook onto Dixon St apartments was pleasant, lots of space between buildings so some views. Light and spacious. Excellent coffee next door (Raglan Roast)

New ZealandMy only complaint is that in the summer I will probably look for a hotel or apartment that has an air conditioner. Although there is a fan provided in the room, it will only be blowing hot air around so unfortunately when I am in Wellington over the summer I will stay elsewhere. It would be great if the apartments did have air conditioners.
This is my second stay at the Astelia Apartment Hotel and it was as good as I remember it. I had a comfortable room that was quiet, spacious and had all the facilities I needed. I really like the availability of the washing machine/dryer. The people at reception are always very friendly and when my swipe card didn't work after hours, someone came around quickly to fix it. I will definitely be coming back again.

New ZealandApartment was fairly typical and similar to others we have stayed in previously in the city. Reasonable value for money and again similar to others in the area. Nothing exceptional but would certainly consider staying there again.
Great location close to centre of the city. Room was OK and had all the basic facilities. Beds were comfortable. Staff were accommodating and stored our bags as we were a little early for check-in.
