How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Street car parking during the weekdays is difficult, but is plentiful after 5PM

Verified reviewHosts were friendly and helpful. The location central to everything including the fabulous cafe La Guinguette and wine shop L’Univerre. Accomodation simple but provides all you need for a comfortable stay
Having some soft seating for lounging on the verandah area would be nice. Not having a door between the ensuite and bedroom was uncomfortable for us
Many thanks for your comments Colleen. We're sorry you found the deckchairs a little uncomfortable; we used to use the cushions on the day bed when we spent an evening under the stars. We would just like to point out that the lack of separation between the bedrooms and the bathroom is stated in the presentation, as we do realise that not everyone is comfortable with that configuration. You are right that having La Guinguette so close is fantastic!

Verified reviewThe cleanliness of the property, the bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom are well set up. The property is also very secure.
No welcome pack, tea, coffee, and milk. Fresh small bars of soaps would have been better than the used one that was there. No internet or TV. Though we got buy using local businesses free Wi-Fi. A local map in English would have been much appreciated
Thank you for your comments, Keith. They're always much appreciated. For travellers considering staying at The Hideway: we recommend you carefully read the description of the property to take note of the services we offer. We confirm we don't offer Internet, TV or breakfast, but there is a range of books (art books, novels and children’s books), games (cards and wooden morpion game) and the cooking basics like salt, pepper (pepper mill), oil (olive oil) and sugar (cane sugar). However, in the interests of sustainability, we don't offer single-use products like individual bars of soap, tea bags or sachets of instant coffee… Regarding tourist information in English, please be aware that the local Tourist Information Office priotirizes digital information on their website (https://www.newcaledonia.travel/en) and no longer publishes tourist maps in paper format, not even French-language versions.
