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 KingdomThere was no staff to check us in when we arrived. After waiting 20 minutes I phoned the number for the hotel and only then did a member of staff appear. My e mail said I had a room with a sea view. That didn't happen. I was in a small double room with no view. I had also paid for breakfast and when I arrived I was informed they did not do breakfast. They confirmed I had paid an extra 26 pounds for breakfast for 4 of us and I still have not had a refund!!! Again there were no staff members upon check out to ask about the refund. Service and advertising needs improving for this hotel
Room was clean and comfortable.

United KingdomIt was very cold, the radiator didn’t seem to work. The bed was really uncomfortable and also there was no shower attachment linked to the bath. The room and the property in general needs some tlc.
It’s close to the beach, arcades and pier. Prime location with everything in walking distance! We also had the sea view room so we got a balcony which was lovely. The hotel itself was quite quiet and peaceful.

United KingdomTrash was found thoughout the room, along with hair in the bathtub. There were handprints on the wall above the bed. Cigarettes lined the balcony, even though signs on the wall stated that it was a no smoking room. The sheets on the bed started turning orange after a damp hat was placed on the bed (we had gotten caught in the rain) not sure if that was a chemical reaction from the cleaning products, but it was unsettling. There was water damage on the ceiling, and what appeared to be stains from smoking along the walls, and there was a brown stain on one of the chair cushions. All of these factors led to us sleeping on top of the blankets rather than tucked in. Lastly, our last three days of the trip, the hotel lobby and our bathroom smelled like there was a gas leak.
Size of the room and ocean view was great! Soap and towels were provided. Coffee and tea as well as a kettle, spoon, and cups were provided as well.

United KingdomThe property is tired and needs a lot of TLC. However, the price reflected the conditions. I wouldn’t want to stay more than a couple of days but as a cheap bed for the night and a shower it is acceptable, just.

United KingdomThe room. The hotel hasn’t been renovated for like 60 years, but it does need some maintenance. Broken tiles on the wall, broken shower door, shower tray, crack on the ceiling, heater was not working - which is fine in September - but the window handle was missing so couldn’t shut the window for the night and it was freezing and windy! Very very uncomfortable bed. ( At least change the mattresses if you’re not willing to spend more money on your hotel!) Noisy, you could hear everything from the corridor. Previous guests’ stuff left in the drawer. I believe it’s still there.. Cold tap needs fixing as it is loose and moves around. You see lovely photos of spacious rooms with french windows overlooking the sea, and sofa with coffee table in front of the window, and you end up having a hole overlooking a wall and with a terrible bed in it. No option to pay extra for seaview or better room, even if you send them a message requesting sea view.. I would recommend booking another hotel when you go to Skegness.
Walking distance to beach and town centre

United KingdomI don't like giving bad reviews but honestly it was hurrendous, it was unclean, hair found in the sink on the floor in the shower, a stain on a towel that could only be described as someone wiping their finger after going to the toilet, broken lamp in the cupboard made of glass, windows filthy, absolutely no staff about, no restaurant or bar open, on a bank holiday weekend! I didn't bother having a shower because I couldn't get over the dirt all around the tray. It smelt damp and unkept, I put the clean towels over the pillows as they smelt stale too. Tea and coffee making facilities but no spoon and no milk. You couldn't see the tv from the bed you had to be stood up to view the picture.
The bed itself was clean, the sheets were clean, the kettle was useable

United KingdomThere was no shower as advertised & not enough water to even run a bath. Windows were broken, they didn’t shut or lock properly. Curtains didn’t cover the windows & there was a spotlight right outside our window along with street lights. There was 2 single beds pushed together which were totally different heights so for a couple as we were not ideal. The wardrobe only had one door & no hangers. The staff were basically non existent gave us our key told us upstairs & left us to figure it out on our own & on leaving we was chased down the corridor by a guy who we’d not seen for our key. Definitely won’t be going back.
The location & view were the only good things about this property

United KingdomGenerally hotel looks a bit worn both in public areas and in the room. (Note: The Bar and Restaurant were both closed due to Covid when I was there). Window covering (blinds and curtains) in my room were rather tired looking and had to be adjusted to keep out light at night (it can be quite bright at the front). Some noise from the road (for room at the front) and other guests arriving/leaving but this was very brief and not an issue.
Friendly staff at check-in. Very large room with comfortable bed. Ample tea\coffee making facilities. Shower was hot. TV worked. My room was at the front so you could just about see the sea. Good price. Functional - had the essentials.
