Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaNot the fault of the hotel but we didn’t realise we would need a booking for the rooftop bar, would be good to make guests aware when they check in how busy it is so they can organise accordingly if they wish.
Location was perfect for exploring the city, our room was so beautiful with an amazing view down the Yarra. The room and facilities were clean and high quality.

AustraliaSound asleep then fire alarm on first morning at 5am. Halfway down the fire stairs when advised it was a false alarm. There is a small sign by bathroom door asking guests to close bathroom door when showering as shower steam can set off fire alarm. Suggest this is more prominently displayed in bigger type and also adhered to the shower door as I happened only to see notice when I was looking for air con control panel. Also suggest that guests are advised of this on checkin. Train noise from 5.15am can be difficult to ignore.
Fabulous location. Comfortable bed. Decent sized room. Great rooftop bar and ground floor restaurant. Friendly, helpful team. Great view with floor to ceiling windows in room. Close to Flinders St Station and trams.

AustraliaWould recommend booking the rooftop bar in advance to get good view seating. Music at rooftop bar could be better. Couldn’t fault anything else!!
Convenient location, close to crown casino, walking distance to shops and restaurants. Rooftop bar and buffet breakfast for only $25. Delicious food, comfortable bed, clean and we got a room upgrade free of charge.

AustraliaOnly criticism is the staff member that was Hosting/welcoming guests (n.b. she was Not at reception) at the front of the hotel on Sat 18th May around 6pm. I would highly recommend that she receive some training in terms of how she acts towards hotel guests. We were standing just inside the front of the hotel waiting for our Uber yet she was quite blatantly hostile towards us. If you are going to work in hospitality and are at the front of the hotel welcoming guests, perhaps learn to work on your customer service. All other Vibe staff were great, it was just this one person that really was a disappointment considering she was meant to make guests feel 'welcome'.
Location was fantastic - quite easy to get to and very convenient; only took us 5mins to walk to Southbank. The central warming in the room was easy to use and kept us quite warm.

AustraliaThis is the first time we felt the room wasn’t as well presented as it has been previously. The bathroom was particularly cramped compared to our two previous stays, and the sink wasn’t clean.
We have stayed at Vibe Melbourne 3 times now and always enjoy our stay. It’s in a convenient location and I love how clean and fresh it smells when you walk into reception and the restaurant downstairs.

Perfect location overlooking the river, straight across from the restaurant and bar hub of the south side. Beautiful sunrises. Easy access to public transport, we used the trams a lot.
