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 AmericaElevators/hallways were dirty. Would have like to see some more activities/things to do for such a big resort. Pool was overcrowded. There needs to be a bar that doesn't close so early and isn't in the casino!
Breakfast at the iguana cafe was amazing. Loved our waiter there. Good location to go hike Bandelier but also get to the Santa Fe plaza.

United States of AmericaNot a biggie but thought it was marketed that all rooms had a balcony. Would have been great to have a lounge in the lobby area. There may have been one but could have been closed?
Room was very comfortable, air flow super, quiet. Easy to get around. Will have to revisit when warmer.

United States of AmericaHalf of the restaurants were closed. The gift shop was closed at 3 pm on a Tuesday. The sign on the door said they would be open at 2:35. The door was unlocked and 2 ladies inside that worked there, immediately were put off by us being there. We tried to make them aware that according to their sign on the door they should be open. That was not the case. So we left and explored the hotel and circled back, but they were still inside and the door was then locked. The golf course was also closed for maintenance. I had called the hotel a few days ahead of our stay to inquire what facilities would be available during our stay and there was not ONE word that so much of (or ANY of) the resort would be closed. It would have been nice to know since we thought we would have things to choose from and not have to leave the property. This was our anniversary trip, so we were trying to splurge a bit and stay somewhere special. :-(
The beds were comfy. They gave us a beautiful sunset room. It was quiet.

United States of AmericaLimited exit access from guest rooms. Only stairs close are posted for emergency only with alarms, forced to take the very long walk to elevators then to lobby to get to parking lot. No room service or mobile order with restaurants not convenient.
Clean and well maintained, the art and decor is great. Rooms was great and love the patio.

United States of AmericaThe walk just from the check-in desk to the hotel elevators is so far that they had to put rest stop benches in the middle. Add the walk to your room when you get to your floor, then back past the front desk to the elevators that go to the casino, and it feels like at least a mile walk. This hotel is for the young and fit, not older folks with ailments. Didn't see any scooters so don't know if allowed.There were no bell hops, so carrying luggage that far was brutal. We spent a lot less time gambling because the long walk kept us from going back and forth from room to casino.
The room was nice and clean, with very nice w/ Southwestern decor and a gas kiva. Bed was comfortable, and the large screen tv was nice. It had a balcony but it overlooked the nearby industrial looking rooftops, so no bueno

United States of AmericaThe staff at the casino was very friendly. however I think I should have been informed that if i BOOKED THROUGH A THIRD PARTY THAT MY STAY PERTAINING TO CASINO TABLE PLAY COULD NOT EARN DISCOUNTS OR COMPS. Also when I pulled up Buffalo Thunder Resort I thought I was booking through them. I didn't realize I was booking thru a third party. I think this and the results of this should be more clearly disclosed.
Loved Mostly everything about the property!

United States of AmericaIndoor pool and hot tub shut down during the summer was disappointing. TV options were severely limited (1 channel of HBO, come on), just a couple of channels and everything is pay per view. Wifi was not strong. Restaurants were mostly closed, Starbucks selection was very limited so you had no choice but to travel for food.
Huge room, great shower, the air conditioner worked nicely. Plenty of elevator options so you never had to wait. Incredibly clean room and hallway. Outdoor patio was nice but chairs were small (still doable). All of the staff were amazing.
