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 KingdomOnly a few really minor issues. The two bottles toiletries supplied were so tiny there was only enough for one person. I was pleased I’d brought my own. Second issue was the room would benefit from a few more electrical sockets particularly on the bed side of the room (there were none!) Lastly, if you were thinking of booking a beauty treatment I would suggest you do so when you book your room or well in advance of your stay as there was no availability for the duration of our stay.
Lovely large room with an amazing sea view. Very comfortable bed and room was nice and quiet. Staff were warm, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was amazing. Cooked to order so lovely and fresh. The location of the hotel was perfect we enjoyed walking along the beach front to the pier, harbour and town. Southwold is also only 20 minutes away so it was a perfect location to travel in for a day trip.

United KingdomSingle room (302)was very small and had an unattractive view of a fire escape and the side of the nextdoor building. I was woken at 3 am by some very noisy guests who did not seem to be aware that the rooms aren’t very soundproof!
Efficient and friendly staff. Good food and great views of the sea for both breakfast and dinner

United KingdomI regret that I cannot think of any serious faults.
My room was comfortable, albeit a little warm at times. I found the food and the service in the restaurant very good. The food was nicely cooked. Throughout the hotel the Staff were curteous and helpful. Overall, I was pleased with my choice of the 'Hotel Victoria' as it served my purpose as a good base from which to explore the Suffolk coast.

United KingdomNoisy neighbours but they were quiet after 10. I can’t blame the hotel for children crying at 3am. A few noisy pigeons in the morning weren’t great either.
Staff were friendly and helpful, great bar area, nice and local to the seafront and Parkrun. Was back after Parkrun in time for breakfast and it was great then a quick shower and back on the 11:06 train to Bham via London. It all worked out to plan.
