Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

AustraliaThe only problem was the traffic noise. This was very loud (admittedly we live in the country and road noise is nothing like Melbourne) but it was extremely noisy.
We liked the location and the fact that we had an apartment with kitchen and lounge room facilities to cater for our 2 days stay. We like to prepare most of our own meals,

AustraliaThe bathroom doors in the apartment were a bit grubby around the door handles ..the tap in the kitchen and the cold tap in the bathroom were broken .. we requested assistance with opening the balcony door and we needed a bigger glass than what was available in the room .. and were told someone would be up to help and bring a glass but no one came. So we bought some cups from the nearest woodworks supermarket and my husband figured out the balcony door .. so ..
Loved the way the foyer was styled.. close to everything.. balcony view was great.. staff were very friendly. Parking was convenient :)

AustraliaThe only small knit-pick we had would be that we had anticipated watching some of our shows at night on our Netflix etc, although the TVs only had standard free to air channels and even a Chromecast wouldn’t work because of the Portal to the wifi unfortunately! If it wasn’t for this, our rating would be a perfect 10/10! 🥰🤍
The stay was amazing! We had originally booked a One Bedroom Apartment for my mum and I, and then upon arrival got a complimentary Upgrade which was such a nice surprise for us both! Rooms were spotless, super clean and the hotel was in a perfect location! Absolutely beautiful! 🤩

Australia2 out of the 3 lifts were operating and were very slow. Grout in shower tiles were not scrubbed clean which was off putting. Not many power points beside beds making it hard to recharge mobile having it within reach. Expensive car parking at $39 per night.
Lovely lobby with fireplace in lounge area. Great restaurant with fireplace also. Had room 3808 on level 38 with partial city/ocean view. Beds comfortable and modern apartment. Great location - 1 block from Crown. Cheaper to park car overnight at Casino for $25.

AustraliaDated room. Showers need to be regrouted and the carpet needs to be replaced it was very stained and really quite disgusting, disappointing considering the cost of the apartment. Having instant coffee was surprising too, again outdated there really should be a coffee machine or at least pods.
The decor was lovely. Beds were very comfortable. Location is great.

AustraliaCurrently doing some renovations (no noise though) and one lift wasnt working so when staying on the 39th floor, getting up or down was frustrating at times. The wifi is patchy and slow. Works in the lounge area of the room but not in the bedrooms - it drops in and out.
Great location. 5min walk to Southbank. 10min walk to Collins St. Close to tram stops and the Crown also. Included breakfast was amazing - you could order anything off the menu (no buffet) as well as a large coffee and a juice - great value for money.

AustraliaOne of the elevators was a bit rickety and looked like a construction site. But I appreciate the building was having some works done and that elevator was being used by the trades and had been clad internally to protect it.
Happy with the room, Although it was overkill for my stay, I had booked a room last minute on Melbourn F1 GP week but my travel date was changed by conference organisers to move it away from the GP. That meant I needed to change reservation dates after booking. Despite this the WRAP staff were super helpful and facilitated my request with no problems. The location was good, easy walking distance to everything I needed during my time there.

AustraliaWifi was clunky and intermittent, though to be fair staff mentioned phones were playing up so possibly this was part of the issue. No doubt it’s already resolved.

United KingdomThe building was under repairs as the renovated a few of the upper floors which meant only 2/3 lifts were working. The sauna in the swimming pool could've had clearer instructions and a bit of a tidy up / clean. Minor (non-permanent) critiques really
The room / suite we stayed in was awesome. great view over the Southbank of the river. nice quality to it and a great space to relax into when we weren't seeing the city, The Location couldn't be better with 10 great restaurants a literal minute's walk from the front desk.
