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...).

AustriaThe TV has only three channels; this is unacceptable. The fridge was rusty.
WiFi very good, although it has to be paid separately. The one included in the price is only available in the lobby. For three days about 18 USD. The room was very clean, the cleaning staff attentive and friendly.

United KingdomThe whole property could do with some maintenance. No hot water in our room. Restaurant was disappointing. WiFi was only free in the lobby - they offer a paid option for the room, but it's very expensive and only covers one device, so it's not really usable. Cheaper to buy a local SIM card with a lot of data instead. Considering the high price, I'd expected the hotel to be in better shape overall.
Perfect location, right in the centre of Honiara, just a block or two away from the museum, art gallery, handicraft market, Our Telekom office, and post office. So it's a great base for walking around and exploring the town. The funicular railway to get to your room is a fun experience and worked fine, although sometimes a little slow when it's busy. The room was comfortable and spacious. Staff were friendly and helpful.

AustraliaThe room we stayed in needed a bit of basic maintenance to get everything functioning as it should.
The accommodation was basic, but had everything you needed. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was good and the restaurant / bar area pleasant. The reception area was the only place to access WiFi, although they are trialing another "hotspot" service which worked well for me in the room. Great central location in Honiara.

AustraliaSome rooms are better than others but ask the reception staff if another room suits your needs.
The food in the restaurant is always nice and kitchen staff are generally happy to provide meal requests for special diet. Staff are consistently helpful and efficient. A good experience. Hot water for showering appreciated after working all day. Also decent fridge in room.

AustraliaAir conditioning issues that were not solved quickly and eventually resulted in changing rooms where there was an old air conditioner that was noisy. The funicular was out of order for much of one day, so the only access to my room meant climbing multiple flights of stairs.
Hotel location is excellent, being in the centre of the town, the view from the room was great, it was quiet.

United States of America- Very loud music blasting until 2:00am every Friday night - The front desk staff were nice, but they didn't know the open hours of some common sights and seemed confused on how to figure it out. They sent me to the tourist information center, which wasn't even open. I was surprised that this was difficult as I'm sure that they had previously been asked common questions like this.
- Very comfortable room with AC, a refridgerator, and a balcony looking out to the pool - Great shower with hot water - Helpful staff at the restaurant and the front desk

New ZealandThe cable car could be a bit eccentric but you got used to its working after a couple of days - a very relaxing way to travel. Of the 16 days I was there I didn't have water in my room on 2 days, once in the morning and once in evening. No hot water at any time but the cold was refreshing, not freezing. The AC didn't work that well but the room had a ceiling fan which moved the air around and did the job.
The hotel is built on a hillside overlooking Honiara harbour with a series of buildings on four levels housing the rooms. These are serviced by a small cable car which runs from the lobby up to level 4 where I stayed. Amazing view of Honiara harbour from the verandah of the room. The room was spacious but basic, with a queen sized bed, desk, TV and a small fridge. The food in the restaurant was good, specially the pizzas, although services could be slow, especially in the mornings. The location was handy for my work and also close to a number of cafes and restaurants.
