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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

AustraliaUnfortunately the cleaners need to pay attention to details. Arrived and bin in bathroom was in pieces with no liner and no toilet roll. Another day we had no face washers or replacement of mouthwash etc. I felt they missed things. Also the picture from room on the booking was not ground floor looking at yachts - it showed sweeping water views - very misleading advertising. Room did have a couple of issues - clothes drawers too few and bench space to do work on - not enough. Tv too small - couldn’t read about each movie. Should put in bigger ones.
Breakfast was exceptional for a buffet. I liked the grounds and reception staff were very good. Restaurant staff good also. Can tell from reception area that the place is upmarket. Liked that we had a coffee machine in our room!

AustraliaThe weather was terrible which I know isnt anyones fault, but the property is a bit far from anything so we had to drive everywhere, there was no information booklet in the room so we just had to find what and where to go.
The food was incredible great breakfast with anything and everything you could eat. Dinner was also delicious.

AustraliaAs a local resident, it would be lovely if there were discounts or promotions to entice local people to spend some time away from their ordinary lives and experience all the luxury that this very nearby hotel and resort off.
We had the most wonderful stay at The Anchorage, surrounded by a truly beautiful atmosphere and breathtaking location. From the moment we arrived, the attention to detail was evident — from the high-end toiletries to the luxurious bathroom fittings, complete with a Dyson hairdryer. The plush robes and slippers added an extra touch of indulgence, making our stay even more comfortable. Breakfast was nothing short of sublime, with a selection that catered to every taste. The fresh honeycomb and decadent chocolate fountain were standout highlights, making mornings feel extra special. We were delighted to find sparkling wine waiting in our room for our anniversary — such a thoughtful gesture — along with bottles of water and a delicious chocolate. The beds were an impressive size and exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a restful night’s sleep, while the room itself was idyllic — beautifully appointed and perfectly maintained. The Anchorage delivers a luxurious, memorable experience in every way, and we cannot wait to return.
