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...).

New ZealandI had emailed the previous day asking for an early check in and received a vague reply. On the day we arrived about 2 (check in at 3) and they said they room wasn’t ready, however it was guaranteed by three, so we left and came back at 3.05. The room still wasn’t ready so we were given two drink vouchers and a promise of an upgrade. Half an hour later the room was ready, however no upgrade. The room was nice and pleasant however dirty utensils in the draw, a questionable smear by the toilet. I tried to ring room service however the room phone wasn’t working. I ring reception 13 times before they finally answered. The room service didn’t take long which was good.
Location and foyer was nice

AustraliaStaff don't seem happy and came across a little aloof.
Large room, funky decore in the room and throughout the hotel. Great location in the middle of Wellington city. Noting the hotel shares its reception with QT. Easy walk to multiple restaurants and bars, shopping etc. There is valet parking onsite and parking around the hotel. All expensive of course.

New ZealandThe address on the property on booking.com was not the entrance to use. Unfortunately because of the one way system we had to drive further away to return to the right entrance.
Perfect location. Quiet for being so central. Comfy beds. Staff great after we arrived much earlier than check in time. Would stay again

United States of AmericaAdvertises washer/dryer in room, but the dryer function does not work. The maintenance man who came up said that the nine-hour (!) time given for drying a load was accurate, but that it doesn't ever really dry things. They just get warm.
Lovely hotel with nice lounge/bar, ecclectic art, and very well appointed rooms.

AustraliaMinor points but you asked so; Washing / dryer machine took over 4 hrs to wash then another 3hrs to dry but it worked. Lighting in the rooms was dim, difficult to find stuff in the wardrobe, you'll know what I mean when you stay there but that's the vibe of the hotel.
Great location close to everything in town and the waterfront.
