How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Dear Spencer, Thank you very much for your kind review of your recent stay with us.

Verified reviewThe staff are excellent. On arrival, it can be seen that the hotel and grounds are kept beautifully. Check-in and check-out were quick and easy. The facilities are fantastic! Often you'll see accommodation that advertises a gym, and when you arrive there are a handful of weights and a treadmill. This is not the case. The gym is excellent 👌 and has everything you need for a great workout. The rooms are beautiful and exactly as advertised. The restaurant is available for all meals (we had breakfast included) a good selection of a la carte options for breakfast. If you needed anything, the staff are wonderful, polite, and attentive. Some evenings there is live entertainment. The pool is FABULOUS. The on-site spa is great. The hotel has some free activities like yoga. They offer other activities that they can arrange. A little gem, we found out that near the gym, there is another bar that has options for Shisha. The Shisha here is excellent. I would 100% stay here again. Added bonus no kid accommodation.
I can't fault the hotel for this, but because of the location, it should be noted that there are monkeys. Not everywhere but mainly in-between the reception and the spa (this is where there is a river). The staff are so diligent in ensuring they are moved on quickly.
Dear Rebecca, Thank you very much for your wonderful and detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had a perfect and relaxing stay with us. It’s fantastic to know that you appreciated the beautiful upkeep of our hotel and grounds, as well as the smooth check-in and check-out process. We’re especially glad you enjoyed our well-equipped gym, spacious and comfortable rooms, and the variety of breakfast options at our restaurant. We take great pride in our staff’s service, and your kind words about their politeness and attentiveness truly mean a lot to us. It’s also great to hear that you enjoyed the live entertainment, fabulous pool, on-site spa, and complimentary yoga sessions. Regarding the monkeys, thank you for understanding their presence due to our location. We remain committed to ensuring they do not disturb our guests, and our staff works diligently to manage this. Your recommendation means the world to us, and we look forward to welcoming you back for another memorable stay. Warm regards, Made Citrayasa Front Office Manager

Verified reviewAbsolutely everything was perfect. The reception offered great service and guidance with tours and driver: a special thank you to Dodi who drove us around and answered all our questions. The waitresses and waiters at the restaurant were extremely friendly: our special welcome was always made sure by Kadek’s smile 🥰. The restaurant offered great food and excellent quality of ingredients, the chef Made taught us a number of Balinese specialties, starting his explanation from the base ingredients to the final plate. The girls at the Spa were very friendly and offered geeat treatments. The staff in general was extrely friendly: from the cleaners, the man who kept the monkeys at a distance (even though I liked seeing the monkeys around). This is the first hotel I ever gave 10 out of 10 and I would even rate it higher if I could. Thank you for such a memorable stay in Bali 🙏🏻👑 🐒.

Your kind words for Dodi, Kadek, Chef Made, our spa therapists, and the rest of our team mean a great deal to us. We will be sure to share your compliments with them, and I am certain they will be thrilled to know they contributed to making your stay memorable. It is an honor to receive your first-ever 10 out of 10 rating (and even higher, if possible!). Your appreciation truly inspires us to keep delivering exceptional experiences for all our guests. We look forward to welcoming you back to Ubud for another unforgettable stay in the future. Warm regards, Made Citrayasa Front Office Manager
