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 KingdomAn added seating area inside to eat would have been ideal along with a bigger TV in the room.
The views from this accomodation were spectacular! Lovely warm welcome from Russell at reception. Hot tub was ready to go on arrival. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was the best I've had in a long time over looking the sea. The girls who serve breakfast were lovely.

United KingdomThe mirror in our bedroom was set too high on the wall and there needed to be a shelf in the bathroom. Our windown rattled (it was very windy) but we jammed it with a bit of cardboard.
Stunning views from our bedroom and dining room. Hotel was very clean and well presented and had friendly and efficient staff. Great location. There were gorgeous toiletries in the bathroom.

United KingdomWe think there could have been a couple more choices on the main menu.
We liked everything about Bayswell Park Hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful; the room and shower room were immaculate; the breakfasts were very good with a good choice; we thought the menu for the evening meal was a little short but what we had was well cooked and delicious; the bar and lounge were welcoming.

United KingdomNothing - it was super!
The location is the most beautiful cliffside position with nothing between our room and the sea. Decor all fresh and quirky. The dinner we had was superb with the most stunning views. Staff could not be nicer or more friendly from reception to dinner to the housekeeping and maintenance guy we met on way out. Cannot recommend highly enough.

United KingdomMaybe a hairdryer in the room would be a good addition, although I’m sure if I’d asked, one would have been provided.
This older style hotel is very warm and welcoming, staff were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. My room was super clean, very comfortable and the breakfast was top notch. The standard of food served in the restaurant in the evening did not disappoint, and great to know there is plenty of choice for coeliacs too on the GF menu.

United KingdomMy only really criticism was the window in our room. It was an old style sash window and it rattled all night because there was a wind blowing. The noise was enough to stop me from getting much sleep. The food was excellent but the dinner menu could offer a little more choice I'd say.
The hotel was very nice, the bedroom was tastefully decorated and very clean. The view was impressive amd the staff were all friendly and helpful. We took dinner in the hotel which was very nice, as was the breakfast.

United KingdomNo privacy. Our hot tub outdoor area was open for people walking back and forth. 3 rooms directly looking onto our patio, this also added to our privacy being failed. Bed was solid so uncomfortable.
The hot tub suite was not private nor was it enclosed. We had 3 rooms directly above us who could look right into our hot tub there was no privacy at all, if we had known this we wouldnt have booked. We stayed in room 24 which was the 1st suite so people could walk back and forth with full view of our comforts. The inside suite was beautiful, however the bed was solid and was in need of upgrading, neither myself or my husband slept at all it was that uncomfortable. Food was incredible both dinner and breakfast.
