Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

Czech RepublicBreakfast could have more variety since they have space.
The lobby and swimming pools are a piece of Paradise. Kevin is the most professional one in the reception desk, ask him if you have any issues with your stay. Our room was faced a building and we wanted more privacy, he changed our room to the river side that was costly than ours. Kevin understood that a Middle Eastern family matters privacy more.

ArubaThe staff at the business center is polite but not genuinely friendly (aloof), but I will attribute that to their incomplete dominion of the english language. Also, I had left something in the room but the housekeeping department was slow to react and didn't seem too interested in solving my problem. When I finally complained with the reservations department, the problem was solved. At an earlier stay, the staff was much more friendly and service oriented. Despite all that, I am still satisfied.
The room and the rest of the facilities were impeccable. Amenities not offered elsewhere

BruneiThe location is by 珠江 (Zujiang), beautiful scenery. Unfortunately it's not within walking distance to other landmarks and shopping.
It's a really up class hotel, spotless clean and beautiful. The staff were professional and friendly. The rooms were big, comfortable and very clean. We also enjoyed the dinner buffet though very expensive and also the dim sum breakfast. Love the sand worms dim sums.

Hong KongNo major dislikes although the night blind in my room was not working properly but that was not a big issue. As mentioned the rooms were clean and comfortable.
The breakfast buffet in the Riverside Cafe was excellent with a good choice of food. We had dinner on one night in the Riverside - the buffet dinner was absolutely excellent. We used the bar for drinks, and for afternoon tea. We also played cards while enjoying a drink in the bar. Our rooms had nice views. The beds were comfortable and the rooms well serviced with clean towels etc. The shower had good pressure and good hot water. All staff very friendly and helpful.
