Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

United States of AmericaThe cleanliness is f the main dinning room. If you look around there is a layer on dusk ( over you and food) that was on everything over 10 ft high. The majority of the staff doesn’t arrive until 7 am so the coffee in lobby was not available until almost 745 and we ordered room service the night before ( and I confirmed the room and they repeated it bank) never arrived. After 45 min late we cancelled the order because we had to leave. For such a lovely place, the bathroom in the dining room was a disaster with patched holes in wall exposed, paint chipping, not the cleanest. The ceiling in the room was also pealing.
Majority of the staff were overly helpful. The female staff in bar were very curt with guests. The food in main restaurant was amazing. The spa was great, deep tissue massage, hot springs, and one indoor pool with hot tub and one outdoor pool heated very warm. Most staff feel like they were well trained in the “ritz Carlton” service where if they see something wasn’t right, they have the authority to fix it without going up to management. Other than the bar, all staff were amazing and went above and beyond.

CanadaI had problems with the bath tub -- the mechanism was stiff for my arthritic fingers and I never really figured out how the plug worked.
Comfortable and well-lit chair for reading. Most hotel rooms skimp on this. The bed and working desk were very good. I didn't make use of the spa or pool.

CanadaQuite expensive. Lack of meal plan option through booking.com. May try to reserve directly with hotel next time. Smell of chlorine in the hallways.
Cannery Restaurant wonderful staff, ambiance and food. Was amazed that I reserved a Superior Queen room but was given an upgrade to a Deluxe room with a fireplace. Did Booking.com do that?

Pet friendly room was nice, a little tight with gas fireplace, washroom dated and small. Parking was close and so was the walk to Pool and Spa through snow

SingaporeThe spa booking is a bit ambiguous. I initially thought the booking will grant us exclusive useage of the small hot spring. In the end they allowed up to 10 ppl booking for the same time, which make the pool extremely crowded.
The outdoor pool and jacuzzi next to the indoor pool are not crowded and are very enjoyable to use. The vibe in the lobby is great. The hotel actually have an additional parking lot at back of one of the building which allows direct access to the rooms, so one doesn't have to struggle to looking for parking space in the lots in front which is rather limited in space.

CanadaI personally was not a fan of the New Years bruch. I much prefer the regular menu.
Christmas decorations were still in full effect. Cozy and comfortable rooms, and the outdoor pool was awesome! It's not crowded, so you really get to enjoy the property. Hubby did reflexology, and it was the best.

CanadaThe service in the wine bar was terrible to start. The server for our area completely ignored us. We waited almost half an hour before we could get someone else’s attention and then she disappeared so we had to flag yet another server. Thankfully she took care of us. The hotel is remote, otherwise we would have gone somewhere else.
Beautiful hotel, spa was very nice as was the main restaurant.

CanadaThis time our robes weren't in our room waiting for us like our previous visit but they were quickly delivered upon our request. Housekeeping overall was a bit inconsistent this time (empty tissue box that wasn't topped up, no spare toilet paper roll, the bath mat was removed for laundering without a replacement, the coffee cream/stir sticks weren't restocked, and only two towels were provided for three people so we had to make a few calls to housekeeping for replenishments over the course of our stay). Nevertheless, response was swift and no complaints in general.
Once again we thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Pillar and Post and it was beautifully decorated for the holidays. It was a bit more crowded than the last time we visited at the end of the summer so the pool was nearly always busy. The Cannery was excellent (tried for the first time) and Vintages was cozy and delicious as well. The staff were welcoming and the shuttle service to and from town was appreciated. The room service we ordered for breakfast was quick and wonderful and, as always, we love the plush robes and slippers. The roses on the pillow at night remain a nice touch! The weather, unfortunately, was mostly drizzly and not much for outdoor exploration of the grounds. However, there was a small break in the weather on our last night and we managed to check out the ice rink, fire pits (nice and toasty!), and the lovely light displays. It was a delight, both inside and outside the hotel. We would love to come back!

United States of AmericaThere was a misunderstanding with the breakfast fee at the hotel, but the hotel made amends with that part. I would eat breakfast somewhere else next time though, because I personally do not think its worth that cost. I loved everything else about this hotel.
It is a beautiful hotel, with a wonderful staff. My family had such a joyful time at Pillar and Post. Although the hotel was more crowded than I would have liked, I could not even notice that when I was in the room. It was quiet and I loved the outdoor access room on the second floor due to its high ceiling. The garden and the pool was a definite plus for the kids as well. We would love to return.

United States of Americayou have been in operation for a long time. I think you could afford to put in at least 1 more elevator to access more rooms. My sister was hosting a wedding and did not get the room she requested or was told she would get when they booked the wedding. The elevator is my main complaint or th option of more valet help.
