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.).

Papua New GuineaThis was our second stay at City Garden Grand Hotel after a great previous stay at the start of the year. Once again we were very happy. It even appeared the room we received this time might have had a bathroom renovation. The room was spacious, the breakfast buffet is an absolute feast with something to suit all tastes. While we didn't use it on this stay, we thoroughly enjoyed using the rooftop restaurant and bar (same level as pool) during our last stay. The view of the city is amazing from here!

The hotel staff treats guests with rare kindness. The room was cleaned every day, and the sheets and towels were always clean. The room, bathroom, hallways, and every area of the hotel are beautiful and well-kept. The hotel is a 5-minute walk from a small shopping center with several restaurants and a convenient supermarket. We came from Italy and stayed for a week. Kudos to all the staff.

TurkeyI think this is the most reasonable hotel in Poblacion. It's much cheaper than the hotel across the street and lacks nothing. The rooms aren't luxurious, but they're clean and well-equipped. The reception and other staff are very friendly. It's difficult to find a good hotel in this price range in Makati. I've stayed here twice and always thought it was a good city hotel that met my needs. The location isn't the safest, but if you're looking here, you're probably planning to spend time in Poblacion anyway.

United KingdomThe hotel is clearly used by young girls for you know what. Many were occupying the reception area and roof top pool later in the evening and at night, with the usual older western men occupying them or loitering ready to make their move. All this didn't always make for a particularly relaxing and family friendly atmosphere.
Large, luxurious rooms. Comfortable beds, hot showers etc. Lovely roof top pool. Friendly welcome and staff were excellent and very helpful all-round.

United StatesThis hotel needs a house phone on each level by the elevators Room key lock malfunction and I had to go 26 floors down in athletic shorts only to resolve. Slow and unnecessary way to resolve the card key issue. The house phone could resolve that.

AustraliaThere are only three elevators and if your on one of the higher floors it takes ages to get an elevator. The rooms are a little dated particularly the bathroom curtains.

AustraliaThis is only applicable if you have a car - parking is terrible. The rump to get up to the car park is too narrow and the space provided is just enough to park your car. Need to give yourself time to get in and out of the carpark specially if your car is an SUV's or a Van. During our stays we decided to leave the car in the carpark and grab a taxi instead. The hotel offers valet parking for quests.
The Buffet breakfast was superb - the service staff was fantastic. Our room is clean everyday - thank you housekeeping.
