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.).

United KingdomThe in-room guide goes into detail about guests being able to request different size of robes and that you only needed to request by SMS if you needed different, however the experience did not match this. The SMS failed so called reception who apologised that they only had one size available. The biggest concern was the noise ! Very bad at night, constant rumbling from building AC units (not in room system) and the local trains passing though Banff honk their very loud horns throughout the night, my wife has very good noise cancelling ear plugs but still could not sleep with the noise. Why hotels of this calibre and price point do not have better sound insulation I do not know and would be the reason I would probably stay in Canmore where I stayed previously and did not have this issue.
The location of this hotel was perfect, central to banff with views of the idyllic mountains. We stayed in a premium king suite which was spacious, well appointed and beautiful decorated. The spa area was beautiful and we had it ourselves for most of the time when we used it which was amazing and like having a private spa.

United StatesA minor point: The room was very spacious, but the bathroom was a bit small and there was no place to hang towels, etc. which made it a little inconvenient. However, the bathrooms did seem to be newly renovated and super clean which more than made up for this! I would definitely stay here again :)
Amazing location (few minute walk from downtown, close to where the tour buses pick up), super convenient parking, and friendly staff! The rooms seem to be newly renovated so they're fitted with really nice/modern fixtures, appliances, etc. Would 100% recommend staying here if you're ever visiting Banff!

United StatesOur only quibble was the tiny bathroom situation and lack of hooks/shelves even for hand towels. Also the art was, lets just say, ultra-modern Nordic (brown canvas squares basically). Not to my taste, but that's a small thing.
Newer and very comfortable hotel. The pool/Nordic spa was the highlight, it was a beautiful and tranquil setting with everything you needed. We did not use the restaurant (it looked nice, with fires outdoors), and breakfast options appeared very limited, however the coffee and tea set-up in room were excellent, and the location is just right - close to everything in Banff, on bus routes, but not in the middle of the busiest intersections.

CanadaIt’s hard to pinpoint one thing we enjoyed about our stay. From the staff greeting us at the desk, to the excellence in every detail. Right down to a toaster in the rooms! The Nora Spa and Fat Ox restaurant were beyond our expectations. We have stayed in Banff many times and never found an experience like this. The spa areas in other hotels, even the Moose hotel aren’t even comparable to the Nora spa at the Kenrick. Everything was perfect and honestly one of the best stays we have ever had. We can’t wait to return!

Saudi ArabiaA ramp instead of stairs up the little hallway to the upper floor rooms would have been more helpful, especially with large and heavy luggage
The Kenrick Hotel is a new and charming boutique hotel located perfectly along Banff Ave. Interiors are well-designed and thoughtful; attention to detail quite obvious. Loved the colors, furniture, bed, and overall feel of the hotel and the room. The staff were attentive and helpful...special mention to Mark and the staff who assisted us with our luggage down the stairs. Would definitely stay again!

CanadaDon’t pay up for the room with “mountain view”. The pictures are deceiving and you see more of the main street in front of the window than the mountains in the background. Personally, with the description and photos here on booking I assumed a view out the back and more privacy.
Beautiful hotel with an amazing spa/pool area - great for couples! Good location right in Banff with all restaurants etc in walking distance. Staff was very helpful and accommodating.

United StatesThe lobby smelled of chlorine from the pool I assume. Our room smelled of heavy cleaning products each day, but went away when we aired it out. Considerable construction noise during the day outside our back door which was right above the dumpster. The staff hung out there each night, talking loudly in the back alley outside our door between 10-11 p.m. keeping us awake. We were on the 3rd floor but still very loud. In hindsight we should have requested for another room and staff might have accommodated us, but hotel was fully booked.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. Went out of their way to help us with reservations and directions. The room was very clean and comfortable. Nice, modern ammenities. We appreciated the free parking and the great location. Although the pool was closed, we enjoyed the jacuzzi.

IrelandThis was a really overrated hotel. Yes boutique style but the shower was small and the fact that the wash hand basin wasn't even in bathroom, but in bedroom was weird. There was no places to put things, and all in all poorly designed. The food situation was the next door restaurant which was nice but again not actually in the hotel.
