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.).

AustraliaI booked this property so we could use the indoor pool/spa for entertainment and relaxing during the day. When we arrived, head to the spa for a sign to be up letting us know it’s down for maintenance. If I had known this in advance I would have booked elsewhere.
Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need.

AustraliaWe came for the marathon and the indoor heated spa that was advertised on the property was not in use, getting fixed. Was bad timing to fix this in school holidays when a marathon was on. We really missed it. Didnt' like either that there wasn't enough toilet paper for the time we were staying. Reception advised that its not like we paid $400 per night like a hotel .... umm we paid like $360 per night so it wasn't cheap!
Hotel location is excellent, across from the river and a short walk to both Surfers Paradise and its restaurants as well as the tram stop to get anywhere from Broadbeach to Southport. Room was nothing fancy but clean and had enough space.

AustraliaSome parts of the room were a bit outdated. Toilet doors didn't lock, doors jammed so it was difficult to open sometimes, that sort of stuff. Not a complete deal breaker, but just something to note
Staff and management were so lovely! Had to come in for an early check in and it was smoothly communicated with the team. The stay itself was just a fifteen minute walk away from the centre which was amazing, especially since parkinf around that area was close to impossible. Overall great stay, will definitely come back

AustraliaThe carpet in the apartment and hallway had a mildew, old smell. I presume it’s from it being quite dated so would be nice to have fresh tiles or something else that doesn’t keep that smell. The ground floor tiling was beautiful and fresh looking so something like that would be nice on all the levels.
It was clean and tidy. Had all the necessary amenities including an outdoor pool which my son absolutely loved!

AustraliaThe location is excellent, the views are stunning. The only minus is our room has no air conditioner that makes it hard to sleep at night. Overall, I love the stay and worth the money.

AustraliaOnly down side, the spa was being refurbished so not available and only one lift available due to renovations but not a hassle
Attended a 21st birthday party in the area the location was perfect. The apartment was clean and big enough to accommodate 4 of us comfortably. Loved that the kitchen had a large fridge, microwave, oven. Also a washing machine and dryer in the unit was handy. The staff were very friendly and helpful too. Highly recommend and will certainly rebook
