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.).

CanadaOur room in the Heritage wing was noisy. We could hear the music from the dining room, and it sounded like someone was moving furniture and walking around the room above us wearing loud shoes until after midnight each of the 3 nights we stayed.
This hotel is in a great location with convenient access to restaurants and activities. The rooms are comfortable and clean.

CanadaSmall things such as the bathroom drain was broken, so I couldn’t have a bath 🙄. Coffee machine was a bit tricky to figure out. The desk lamp where the coffee machine was didn’t work, so couldn’t see how to work it. Had to walk to the Manteo to check in, which was a pain.
Nice and clean hotel. Loved the cork flooring in the room. Very nice staff who responded to requests quickly. Hot and warm pools were excellent.

United KingdomVery thin walls. The bar below our room was noisy (music). The hotel boasts about its sustainability values - I think they need to address this a little. The breakfasts we had were huge, massive and went mostly uneaten. As such a lot of waste. A card in the room stated guests get a refillable water bottle but we only got the one being told that applied to another part of the hotel!!! So why say what they say on the card!
Location with a view over the lake is great. The balcony a bonus. Sadly, we arrived much later than we wanted to and as such didn't get to get around the hotel.

CanadaMy room looked at the parking lot instead of the lake but that was just luck of the draw.
The facility is in a lovely location. Its waterfront deck is beautiful, even in the late fall when it was quite chilly. The room had customized artwork, was big and comfortable and generally as one expects from a quality resort.

CanadaRoom itself was quite dated and tired - it has historical charm in its facade and restaurant, but the room itself could have used some updating 30 years ago or so. There is no city on the planet but Kelowna where the El Dorado could charge what they do for a room, where what they offer for that room would be seen as reasonable. In Kelowna since the BC government killed the private rentals it is the only option in the city worth staying at, and its price reflects that. My next stop in my business trip was in Vernon where I had a *much* nicer room also on a lake for about 1/4 the price, so it stings to pay what El Dorado costs to stay somewhere that in any other city would be a fraction of that, just because the government killed the competition operating at El Dorado’s level of quality in the city. I would happily stay again, because since BC banned the private options El Dorado is the best available in Kelowna.
Multiple gyms and pools, lakeside with included resort amenities - would have loved to have taken in a bit more

CanadaParking definitely an issue when an event is on at the hotel. Not even a dedicated check in or drop off area near the building, having to park across the street in a public lot and bring bags to hotel. Some areas of the hotel showing its age with worn furniture in the room and hallways, woodwork grubby in places from hands etc. Could use some cleaning.
Older facility in a good location on the water. Busy and somewhat noisy at times but to be expected with marina, patio and boat launch nearby.
