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 ZealandTried a couple of the cocktails downstairs. Wasn't too fussed with them but still drinkable. Not sure changing a great cocktail is always a good idea. Would have been nice to see some of the classics on the menu. Kawakawa mojito was nothing like a mojito, was weird and the massive block of ice in the glass left not much cocktail to drink. The bar staff were fabulous though. But honestly its a very small thing and not something that would put me off ever coming back.
Great place to stay. Staff were excellent. Rooms were modern and comfortable. Easy access to Sky complex. Nice comfortable relaxing bar downstairs. Bonus was we were an hour early and had wanted to just leave our bags but they checked us in early.

New ZealandI found it a little difficult trying to navigate my way around going between Skycity and the Horizon hotel. The parking situation was also really confusing but did get there in the end. It was only minor issues overall so didn’t really affect our stay too much.
The staff at reception were very warm and welcoming upon arrival, and super helpful. The room felt luxurious and equally cozy at the same time. I can definitely say the entire experience had exceeded my expectations overall, especially for the price.

New ZealandNot much could have been better, really. Exceeded my expectations.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was very comfortable, with great views of city and harbour. Bed was super king size, and very comfortable. Pillows had varying softness. Everything felt new. In room amenities were luxurious and the fridge was well stocked. Very quiet room and blackout curtains were very effective.

New ZealandI wouldn’t say didn’t like, just uncomfortable in being that we couldn’t adjust the temperature of the room on the heat settings. Was a little too warm and we couldn’t adjust accordingly.
Hotel is gorgeous and gives luxurious vibes. The facilities, staff and location are absolutely spot on.

New ZealandLoved it all
First room had a broken aircon which they all tried to fix . Rather than hold me up they simply transfered me to another room so I could get on with the days activities . Fantastic decision I thought. I also appreciated the care in which the cleaning staff at the time helped me transfer my luggage to the next room . Thankyou to the manager on that morning who allowed me afew drinks from the mini bar in the room . So nice. Will stay here always. Thanks again Susie Willsx
