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.).

Verified reviewLoved the vibe, the place, the rooms, the staff, the ease of it all
The pool is super cute and lovely, but the over-engineered disability chair is unnecessary - and is a dangerous feature for regular guests as it takes over the pool. There are inclusive and more discreet options out there. This would put me off coming back.
Nicholas, thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay, and we also appreciate your comments regarding the accessibility chair. We’ll certainly share your comments with our team as we continuously look for ways to balance comfort and inclusivity for everyone. We hope to have the chance to welcome you back in the future.

Verified reviewVery nice ambiance in the hotel. Afternoon wine and light snacks were a nice touch
Continental B’fast was very basic, not enough choice and coffee was not hot (from pump thermos). Also, loud recycling bottles clanging very early in AM both Sun and Mon. Woke me up both mornings. If we stay again I will request another part of hotel
Dear Jayne, thank you so much for your feedback! We are glad to hear that you have enjoyed your room as well our complimentary wine and cheese hour! We are sorry to hear that you were woken up early on both days. We hope noted your profile that on your next visit, we will assign you far from the recycling area!

Verified reviewRooms are comfy and location in town is nice across from Publix and walking distance to great shopping and the beach. Helpful and nice set-up for going to the beach
Pool is non-existent with no sun and with a trafficted street on the other side of the bush. Also difficult to enjoy time on the balcony because of traffic noise
Thank you so much for your feedback! Our hotel is in a great central location which does impact the traffic in our surrounding area being so highly visited. Next time you visit our hotel, ask our team members about our wonderful partnership with The Club for additional and exclusive outdoor amenities.

Verified reviewFantastic location just a few blocks from the beach (The White Elephant also provides free transportation to and from the beach not to mention complimentary luxury cars you can check out). This is one of my favorite hotels on Palm Beach and is definitely my favorite boutique hotel on the island. Lola 41 is also a great restaurant - great place for happy hour and hanging out before a night out on the island or Clematis! The hotel itself is fantastic - high quality amenities throughout. Just a great place to stay in Palm Beach.
There's nothing I don't like about The White Elephant.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to welcome you back again soon!
