Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustraliaThe milk sachets for tea and coffee were out of date. We got given new ones but they were more out of date than the first lot, the UHT milk was a solid blob in the container. Small stuff for sure but worth knowing about as we left before we could say this to management
Clean. Warm. Inviting and lively decor. Well kept and appreciated.

AustraliaThe room itself was a bit disappointing - the bedroom had nothing but a bed and wardrobe and there was nowhere to safely put the kettle, which I eventually found under the bathroom sink. (Really nasty tea so I went and bought my own.) The picture above shows a table and chairs in the room which was not there. Would have expected a nicer breakfast for the price, despite very friendly service. Perhaps more choices of cereal, spreads and fruit.
Friendly staff especially breakfast man. Lovely shower and comfortable bed. A brilliant location for the Cliff Walk and everything in Katoomba. It's a beautiful old building and in a great location.

AustraliaThe walls were paper thin so we could hear the people in the next room. Our shower leaked so had to put down a bunch of towels.
The location was within walking distance to Three Sisters lookout. Staff were friendly. There was a fridge for us to store some fruits.

AustraliaThe hotel is a little far from the town center, but there’s a bus running every ~40 minutes. Of course, not a problem if you have a car.
I stayed just a few nights at La Maison Boutique Hotel (i was upgraded to the hotel from the pension at arrival). My stay was really good, the room is spacious and the bed confortable, everything was very clean. I enjoyed the simple breakfast, it has everything you need to start the day.
