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 KingdomWhile I appreciate the Boss concert pushes prices up, I felt it was a bit steep. Some parts of the building and car park are tired looking and in need of some maintenance. The toilet in our room struggled to flush loo roll !
Room size & breakfast first class. All the staff we encountered were great. Pool & spa facilities helped to make the stay.

United KingdomMy wife and I are both over 80 years old and having a room on the third floor at the far end of the hotel was a bit of a strain occasionally.
The room was good and the bathroom excellent. The staff were extremely good and very helpful. My wife felt unwell on the penultimate day and we left a day early. The final night's charge was refunded which was unexpected but gratefully received.

United KingdomOur room was booked quite late and so I can understand why the room was best available- outside our window was a very noisy extractor fan -I did enquire about alternative room and was right away offered another room - lovely with a sea view but smaller so we stayed in our original one - the fan went off at 9pm so it wasn’t actually an issue in the end - but again staff were super helpful throughout
Location is great, staff are super, nothing is too much trouble the hotel is dated but that’s a good thing… our room was huge, with 2 comfortable double beds- bathroom had a shower and a bath. Breakfast was lovely , plentiful and was served until later than advertised Pool & gym included in the price - amazing! And great facilities within … even had a swimwear drier .. what a treat!!

AustraliaWe planned to use the swimming pool but didn’t as the pool was occupied with a swimming group. Not really a problem.
Room, breakfast and location were all excellent. We were happy with the original room, but upgraded to one with a view of the sea, which exceeded our expectations. The staff were wonderful and we were very happy with our stay in Sunderland.

United KingdomThe lounge bar area whilst good was less attractive, lighting could benefit from a rethink as it was cold looking and functional providing little atmosphere. We tend not to use that area.

United KingdomI have noticed that the dog friendly rooms could do with an updating. The door to our room needed repainting and the room was a bit shabby. We would love a room with a view but always seem to get the same location in the hotel because we are taking our dog! People cause more damage than dogs!
Excellent location with great facilities. Love the fact that this hotel is doggy friendly.
