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 are 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 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.).

The pool was lovely. We had stayed for a couple of nights then booked an additional night while we were here. The complimentary breakfast was a nice surprise. The front desk staff were very helpful.

United KingdomThe hotel is in the middle of a major refurbishment, which it badly needs. There is a large room that at one time would have been their entrainment room. This would be nice to see it fully restored. The room I had overlooked an untidy garden with broken furniture outside this need cleaning up and making into a nice little seating are.
The hotel, in general, is very good. The swimming pool is a very nice feature and was warm. I managed to get a parking spot most nights, but the car was safe on the road just outside. It was nice walk into Torquay itself it took me about 10 minutes. The staff where very friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe staff were on the quiet side. The computer system said we weren't in the room on checkout day, this resulting before our checkout, which was 11:00am. At 8:30am, I just woke up and heard a knock on door, went to check, and before I even got a chance to respond and get dressed, someone had unlocked the door and started walking in. She did quickly shut the door, but we did have door locked and the do not disturb sign on door. We did then decide to pack up and go earlier than checkout time.
The room was nice size, quiet area. The pool facilities and games room were a good extra. Simple breakfast is a bonus. Good location.

United KingdomSmell of cigarettes in the room. We were above the patio which had signs to say smoking area was round the side, but the ashtrays on the patio were full. Leisure facilities not working. We were told on arrival the swimming pool needed to be refilled and wasn’t operational that evening. It still wasn’t open on the Saturday. One of our reasons for choosing this hotel was for the leisure facilities. Advertised as toiletries provided but we only had 2 small bottles of shampoo, no shower gel or conditioner and robes provided, a nice touch but only one had a belt.
Lovely spacious room. We were in the Torbay suite. Comfortable bed. Good location. Free parking . Good value for money.

We really like the location. Also that the hotel was equipped with a swimming and other facilities. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming.

United KingdomThe ceilings are high and the lighting was not adequate for reading, needs a side light of some kind. The building obviously needs updating. The furniture needed a bit more thought. A little table and chair for my laptop would have been nice. Also some more hooks for clothes hanging.
This hotel exceeded my expectation. It was spotlessly clean throughout. Every staff member I encountered was polite and very helpful. I did not expect any breakfast but there was self service cereals toast, fruit, yohurt, tea etc. Great lounge, good feel about the place. The pool is fabulous and also the hot tub, sauna. Great facilities for the price and free parking. I had a room which was described as 'very small', it was small but by no means very small.
