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 KingdomAll was satisfactory- appreciate some modernization of the rooms may be useful in the future eg decoration, adding fridge etc, but overall more than adequate for the time spent at the hotel.
Great location, lovely swimming pool, lovely staff and restaurant available if required.

FranceHmmm, it’s true, it really does need updating - very 70’s - my son who is 24 thought it was cool as very retro 😂 Very brown and little tablecloth’s here and there -almost museum like. The air conditioning worked but didn’t blow cold air so in 34 degrees wasn’t great!Think of your grandmas house in the 1970s. Breakfast wasn’t much either but a short walk to all the fantastic cafes etc in the old town of Vence.
Great location, especially the footpath to the old town straight from the car park, only 280 metres. The free underground parking is a huge bonus ! Most of all the staff. Like all the reviews on here say, the staff are all exceptionally polite and helpful - very old school- which is a refreshing change! Toiletries in the bathroom and everything is very very clean. Oh and an amazing deep swimming pool, again very well kept and clean and considering this is the middle of August, the whole hotel was sooo quiet.

United KingdomI’ve reviewed this hotel three times now and my views don’t change. It’s a lovely family run hotel where you feel at home, it’s clean and comfortable and the staff can’t do enough to oblige. It’s handy for Nice airport and Vence itself is a great town with loads of good restaurants and the surrounding countryside is lovely.

United KingdomBreakfast is basic and if it’s busy there’s not enough sun beds at the pool. They don’t advertise themselves as having a boutique, modern decor and that’s true but it was clean.
As well as the price… free parking, rooms cleaned everyday, wall mounted hairdryer, good TV, complete blackout blinds (sometimes you need that), lovely pool for swimming and it’s only a 3 minute walk to the lovely town of Vence which has a historic centre, Tuesday markets, music and lots of places to eat and drink. We ate in the town all of our 10 nights, there’s lots of variety. The hotel staff have been so helpful and kind. The location is great if you have a car, we took day trips to Cannes, Saint Tropez, Grasse, St. Paul De Vence, Eze and of course Antibes, Biot and Nice. All within 90 minute drive.

United KingdomThe hotel in Vence is located about 20 km away from Nice airport where we flew to and found it fairly easy to locate. (Good old sat nav) The hotel had all the amenities we required. The staff were extremely helpful, even when we arrive just before midnight nothing was too much trouble. The centre of the vibrant town of Vence was beyond our expectations. Quaint, narrow streets, plenty of restaurants serving excellent food and while we were there a fantastic evening market.

United KingdomMy husband has hip problems so a shower in a high sided bath was difficult for him. Not a great many loungers by the pool altho there were chairs. Apart from that nothing else.
Relaxed staff, big clean rooms - ours had a little balcony- easy access to town (5/6 minutes and Vence is a really lovely town) , garden for the dog, proper French breakfast, great evening meal. Swimming pool is a good size too. What’s not to like?!

United KingdomThe rooms are a little tired but this was no problem for us.
We liked everything. Yes, the rooms are dated but honestly the absolutely wonderful staff and location, make up for any little short falls. The staff could not do enough for you. They were courteous, helpful, friendly and just delightful. We ate in the restaurant on our last night and it was a lovely experience. We will definitely stay here again. The gardens are a beautiful addition. I wish there was seating in ot so I could sit and enjoy. You walk up through the terraced garden straight into a lane that leads into the old town. Superb! The buses to St.Paul de Vence and Cagnes, Nice stop directly outside. St. Paul takes 5 mins and costs €1.50 each way. Amazing value. We parked right outside the front door, with ease and it was the end of July.

United KingdomA couple of areas possibly could have done with a bit of renovation (we do renovations and maintenance with our company) but this was insignificant compared to the positives. We are happy to help with any maintenance if needed :)
The room we were given was very large and the facilties were great. The acmeals I have had for a long time paired with fennel and green beans absolutely delicious. The staff were so friendly and ctual hotel was amazing as built into the rocks. Had very quirky areas where you could see the bare rocks within the hotel. Loved it. Food was amazing too. We had dinner both nights we stayed. The cabillaud (cod) was one of the best meals I have had for a long time - paired with fennel and green beans absolutely delicious. The staff were so friendly and the atmosphere was very relaxed. We will definitely stay next time we are in France.
