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.).

United Kingdomsee note above.
The room was lovely and the spa massage was amazing. The only quibble I have is that the hot tub and steam room were out of order, which is one of the reasons I changed my hotel reservations to you.

AustraliaThe bathroom was the worst I have experienced. There was a shower over the bath and when you showered the water flowed alongside the bath onto the bathroom floor as there was no drain to cater for this. This was the same in both rooms. The reception area had multiple sofas, but the covers need replacing as they are cracked leather. Pool was lovely, but bar was closed. Pool was open to 7pm, but it was dark at six and no lights. Plus bar closed and not operating at all
I stayed in two rooms -a room with two beds and a Junior Suite. Rooms were spotless and very comfortable.

CanadaAs other reviews have noted, and something you would expect from being right in the city, the street noise is a thing. You can definitely hear the ambulances and cars revving during the night.
We landed late and stayed one night here. The location was perfect for exploring Papeete, the market, and to walk to the ferry terminal. The room was clean and front desk staff were very friendly. Two water bottles were provided in mini bar, and there’s a convenience store next door for snacks / drinks. It was about 3100 XPF taxi from the airport.

United StatesThe air conditioner in one of the rooms did not work at all, one room was fair and the other room was cooled very nicely.
We used the property as a way station after we got off the ferry from Moorea and had to wait 8 hours for a flight at the airport. Our family of 12 from 2 years to 71 years, carrying all our luggage could easily walk to the property from the ferry terminal. We chose three rooms which only two of the rooms had air conditioning that worked. The pool was very clean and a wonderful area for the children and some of the adults to relax prior to our long flight back to the states. The concierge helped me set up two vans to transport us to the airport which was very helpful.
