Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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...).

United KingdomSuper friendly, helpful staff, a beautifully designed room with breath taking views, everything was well-thought through and felt like luxury - from the linen, to the toiletries, the snacks and having space in the bathroom to hang large towels (which is often a challenge). Artisan Square is its own little oasis on Bowen with direct access to trails.

BelgiumLoved every little thing!
Absolutely everything is thought out for guests. The view, the amazing bed and linens and decor right down to a milk foamer and coffee maker, even milk in the fridge! Beauty really matters at Artisan Suites so you have a full luxury experience. Add to this the smell of the bakery on the ground floor and you are set!

CanadaThe only small issue was that we could hear some noise from the neighboring rooms, but I understand this can be common in buildings made of wood.
My wife and I stayed here for my birthday, and we are very happy with our experience. The check-in was very easy, and our room was so clean. The furniture looked very nice and comfortable. And the view from the room was amazing! It made my birthday very special. We recommend this hotel a lot!

Hong KongThe connection of Netflix was weak. I wish there will be microwave in the room since restaurants close early on the Island, and there is a cafe downstairs which sells sandwiches, it would be nice to have a microwave for heating food.
general speaking, the location is quiet and safe.

The view is stunning, and the bathroom is clean and modern. The room is very spacious and includes a comfortable sofa and chair.

CanadaI really can't think of anything that could be better, short of leaving you a robe or notepad and pen in the suite, this stay really exceeded my expectations.
The room was very comfortable and had everything I needed, including a fancy espresso machine! The location is unbeatable, the check-in and check-out process smooth and seamless, and the hosts are around to ensure your stay meets your expectations. I particularly appreciated their quick help in solving a situation I had during my stay.
