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.).

Verified reviewGreat location, so close to ohakune centre, easy to walk to cafes, bars, restaurants, ski shops. Warm and cosy.
On a major road so had some truck noise through the night. And the bed was a little too soft.

Verified reviewNoisy from rooms next door, noise insulation? Cooking range didn't work, shower door broken, light bulb blown over bed, heat pump very dirty, cleaned filters, but needs hydro cleaning to get rid of black mold on scroll fan and coils Front door seals gone, sounds like it's open when vehicles go past
As above

Verified reviewLocation was great. Easy to get to everything. Good for a family of 3 size wise - 1 double bed and a single.
No staff greeted us. We didn't meet anyone that worked there so it lacked a personal touch. The accommodation met our basic needs but the bathroom could have been more thoroughly cleaned.

Verified reviewConvenient to restaurants; comfortable bed; good shower. Called for assistance and got a quick and accurate reply.
Unremarkable and more expensive than other properties on offer in Ohakune. All the reviews mentioning noise from neighbouring rooms are correct. Heard everything from next door. I think better value for money is available.

Verified reviewConveniently located, a short walk to everything you need in Ohakune. Nice walking path directly behind the property. I was at the front so I had a nice view of Mt Ruhapehu and the beautiful sunset each afternoon. Sufficient cooking facilities if not dining out.
The soundproofing, it wasn't intrusive but you could hear your neighbour in the next room. Info sheet started a drying room and locker but I could find it.

Verified reviewCentral location is great! Internet is fast! Aircon/heater is good.
The bed is sinking… you can actually feel the spring of the bed. It is uncomfortable and for the price value is not that good.
