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.).

United KingdomThe hotel is looking very tired and needs a coat of paint everywhere. The rooms could do with refurbishment and introducing some colour. Floorboards very creaky.
The location was ideal for our stay.

United KingdomThat you were expected to book for dinner before 4pm, and that you couldn't just get a table if you felt like eating later. And only a small window of time for dinner seatings.
That we were upgraded to a large sea view room without a fuss, after discovering a problem with the room we originally had.

United KingdomThe walls and floors are quiet thin . But this is due to building being older. But overall no complaints
It was on sea front . Close to the pier. Staff were friendly . We were able to check in early which was a bonus . Had a problem with electric which was sorted immediately which was amazing.

United KingdomThe room had poor ventilation with just one window opening about 8 cm. When we did open it we were invaded by pigeons. The door to the room was tricky to close and made a terrible bang each time we closed it.
Reception staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great with plenty of everything. The hotel, being close to the pier, was ideally positioned. The room was serviced each day of our three day stay. The shower water was nice and not. We made good use of the kettle and the hot chocolate provided was welcome.

The excuse was that they have their own car park at rear which is £6 a day. But the car park has always been there. …

United KingdomMy room needed updating. Wallpaper beginning to come away from the wall, a very stained carpet, mould on the bathroom ceiling, no extractor fan, nowhere to hang towels. The loo didn’t flush properly. Room servicing for my four day stay was minimal. My bin wasn’t emptied even though I stayed for four nights. Bed not made. Bank holiday restaurant staff were at times rather unfriendly, but the breakfast staff who worked on the non-holiday morning were delightful. Other hotel staff were fine throughout eg dealt immediately with requests eg for more teabags/ milk in my room.
