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.).

SingaporeIt’s absolutely beautiful, like a tourist attraction on its own with its own history and culture, residing on a very large compound facing the West Lake, with beautiful landscaped gardens and villas. As we stay at building 7 which is far away from the main building 8, we are glad that there is a reception at building 7 which makes it very convenient that we could get taxis and do our checkouts. The room is beautiful. The toilet floor is heated and so is the toilet seat, which makes it comfortable to use in winter. There are luxurious accompanying toiletries and room facilities. It is a perfect resort to relax in with a private part of the West Lake to enjoy. To get to other places, one would need a taxi as the attractions are rather too far to walk. But it is possible for taxis to ride directly to the building where we stay which makes it convenient.

Incredibly beautiful location on the west shore of West Lake. Beautiful grounds - like staying in a nature park / Chinese Garden. Breakfast was an amazing bounty of Chinese and western dishes - everything was fresh and expertly prepared. Great location for visiting the West Lake region.

United StatesI needed a tutorial on how to operate the toilet seat. Had so many features an options. It was pretty advance. I didn't know how to turn off the feat feature. Controls were in Chinese and I couldn't figure it out. Probably showing my age a bit on this.
You'll feel like a king staying at West Lake State Guest House. The absolute best place I've ever stayed in my 50 years of life. You'll see that many world leaders have stayed here because of the traditional and beautiful property and grounds. The breakfast was first in class. Walking around the grounds is a joy in itself. Security and safety is of utmost importance to the hotel and it shows.
