Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomFood wasn’t the best. Breakfast bacon was very under cooked. Service was excellent with check-in from waiter to see if we needed anything each day.
Excellent location Very welcoming staff and overall friendly atmosphere Evening entertainment very enjoyable but the room would be better if it was in the dinner hall as it’s so much bigger. Bar prices good Room a very good size With lots of room for movement New updated bathroom shower - great power! Fan - kettle & refreshments - hairdryer - tv in room

United KingdomIt would be even better if for those that didn't have an evening meal included in the package that bar snacks such as Cheese/Ham rolls, Pies or other lite bites were available, crisp and nuts don't do the job. Breakfast only - The food wasn't to our taste but service was really good food was hot.
This is our second time at the Templestowe Hotel. The hotel itself is very big and spouse. Bedrooms are a good size with everything you might need including a good hairdryer and fan. The dinner hall is massive, the evening entertainment room does need to be slightly bigger one night we were unable to get a table to watch the entertainment which was a shame because it is really good. They have a fully functional lift. New showers are being installed and we had one, it was lovely. Any staff member you talk to seem very happy and polite. Parking onsite and nearby is very good. We didn't use any of the day trips but apparently they are very good. This isn't a hotel to take children although we had a young person with us and they enjoyed the entertainment. You wouldn't see a child running around it is more for 60+ but it really is a great weekend away filled with great entertainment.

United KingdomThe beds could have been a little softer.
The staff are very polite and welcoming, the entertainment was really good and the hotel room was very clean. There was free parking, which was also nice. The hotel is in a good location, with a short walk to the beach. Even though the hotel is near a main road, you can't hear any outside noise.
