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.).

AustraliaThe breakfast was impressive but for someone who doesn’t eat a lot $50 a head was alot.
We loved the pool pity it can’t be heated. The bathroom in the room was lovely. The bed was a little hard for our liking but might be ok for others.

New ZealandThe hair dryer is a bit old fashioned, pls update this.
The lagoon pool was absolutely amazing and what made us book JW Marriott. The buffet breakfast at Critique restaurant was the best we’ve had. Hotel staff and Critique staff (esp during breakfast buffet service) were all superb, great customer service and very welcoming and accomodating. There’s a water and ice room on every floor which is an absolute treat and we used it multiple times each day. There’s a laundry room in Level 3 - amazingly practical!

AustraliaResort has everything you could desire to enjoy for entire family - no need to leave! Phenomenal staff attentiveness and customer service, excellent pool facility, spa amenities for pamper, arcade for kids, activities for kids to participate in, clean, extremely well mannered staff all round. Option of dining in and bar, quality buffet for breakfast and dinner 10/10! Could not fault my experience. Even when I had a minor leak in bathroom it was handled with upmost professionalism and exceeded my expectation of resolution.

New ZealandThe wait time to see someone at reception one day was 10 minutes, communication between reception staff was poor and we got given different stories on different days. The rooms needs to be cleaner, we found old fruit and mess under the bed upon arrival. The beds need replacing I think, quite uncomfortable and gave me a bad back.
The pool was fantastic, great for small kids who could play all day. We booked this hotel for the pool and it did not disappoint. Breakfast was great, though some days there were not enough staff and plates etc piled up on tables. Restaurant choices were good but there needs to be healthier options for kids and smaller portion size options for toddlers. Family friendly hotel with a lot for the kids to do. Easy access to shops and the tram if needed.
