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 are 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 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.).

MalaysiaDifferent customer service operators provide varying feedback. Logging into Booking.com, no rooms are available for changing booking dates throughout 2024. A hotel customer service rep stated that changing booking dates is not allowed if you call. However, another customer service operator managed to change the booking date.

MalaysiaHonestly, I just like everything here! Wish that they will have discount in the future as I am planning to stay longer (maybe about two weeks) in Penang next time.
This is my second time staying here. I really LOVE this place. You can just see the sea from your window. The room is spacious, neat, modern and super clean. They provide very good quality slippers, towel, bed, body wash, shampoo, toothbrush and toothpaste. There is washing machine and dryer at seventh floor which is my favorite part. Downstairs there are bakery, convenient store and cafe. Nearby there are hawker centers. Taking a cab from the hotel is very convenient too. I would like to show appreciation to the front desk staff who welcoming me by upgrading my room. He is very professional, polite and helpful. I did enjoyed my stay very much.

SingaporeI guess there were some guests that took more towels than they should at the pool. We couldn't find any towels & there isn't anyone station at the pool towel counter.
Everything is great!! Nothing much to complain. From the moment we entered the property, the staffs are all very welcoming. And they made sure my cakes delivered to the hotel were kept safely till we are back to pick up. Rooms are huge & clean with a fantastic sea view. Love the breakfast! Pretty good selection to choose from & they do change some of the buffet items daily. Quality is good. We also ordered room service twice & the satay is good!

TaiwanThe room dust seems to be terrible! There have been dust flying and could be visible under the light. My iPad Pro has been accumulated with 2mm of dust (after left unattended for 5 hour) and need to be wiped off before start working. Not sure if this is due to ventilation or the carpet. My bathroom drainage also get clogged but they solved the problem the same day!
Location is superb! I have been here twice for the past 8 months and still enjoying staying here whenever I arrive into Penang, either for work or leisure.

The service was excellent. Special shout-out to Joeyi who provided a very good service. It was my wife's birthday, and they gave her a delicious slice of cake. The room was very comfortable and I enjoyed swimming in the pool. I had some issues with the air-conditioning, but maintenance crew sorted then out quickly. I highly recommend this play.
