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...).

New ZealandJust a personal thing, but the unit didnt have a window. We like to sleep with a window open, if only slightly in winter, and weren’t keen to leave the ranch slider open. I will check that next time.
Pleasant reception staff; clean, clear instructions re putting out the rubbish and recycling; warm, even without heating on in winter.

The room was very clean and we really appreciated having a washer/dryer. The kitchen has all the equipment you need for a short stay - pots, pans, cutting boards, cutlery, etc. The location of the Alps Motel makes it super convenient to get to Mt. Cook National Park. In addition, the owners of the motel are extremely kind and were very helpful when we had questions or needed something. I would stay here again if I were to come back!

United StatesDuring our nearly two-weeks-long trip, we stayed at a different hotel almost every night and this hotel is easily our favorite stay. Not only was the room incredibly clean and modern, but it was also spacious and had a laundry machine (detergent and drying rack provided for free) as well. If we had more leeway in our traveling, we may have stayed one more night. Also, the owners were absolutely lovely people. I highly recommend this hotel!

ChinaWe stayed in room 2, and it was very quiet. However, it's worth noting that if you being one of the closest rooms to the parking area, it might be susceptible to noise in the evening. Therefore, for any early sleeper, it would be wise to request a room further away from the parking area when making your reservation(like room 1 or 2).
An excellent choice for our stopover in Twizel. The room was exceptionally clean and surprisingly spacious, offering all the amenities one could need. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming(though the office closes at 7pm, but you could also give a call first and the reception leaves the key for you). Its location is also a major plus – being very close to the center of Twizel made it convenient for accessing supermarkets, restaurants, and petrol stations. If you're looking for a comfortable place to rest while passing through Twizel, it’s definitely the best option.
