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 KingdomWe didn't deliberately book a room with a view so we really didn't get one which was fine. But, I believe we were above the kitchen because with the windows open we could smell the cooking coming from the extractor fans.
We took out 2 rooms next to each other, the hotel was amazing as exceeded our expectations. Quiet and tranquil, amazing views and accessable to shops and beach in a few minutes. Bonus with EV charging, a games room and swimming pool as we were mainly there for a relaxing staycation rather than explore the town. Food was delicious, staff was very friendly and helpful, rooms were imaculate

United KingdomThe room was too hot for us, we kept the window open all the time. We both had an evening meal which was lovely, the dessert was cheese cake with caramel ice cream, unfortunately sea salt makes me ill but fortunately my daughter asked about the caramel which had sea salt in it and the mushrooms at breakfast had sea salt on them but there was no mention of this in the menu which would have been helpful.
Breakfast was good, the room was nice and clean. The staff were helpful and friendly and we had all we needed

United KingdomThe building needs some refurbishment and redecoration, especially the reception and communal areas. The room would also benefit from some refurbishment, the wardrobe had some broken features and need some tlc or refurbishment, as well as the bathroom taps and pipping. Overall, the room was good and bed was comfortable.
The area and the gardens were fabulous. The area is beautiful and calm, with great pubs and restaurants near by. The gardens of the hotel are beautiful and there's a short walk through a wood area where you can see red squirrels. There's also an access to the beaches through the cliff, which we cod not use due to the bad weather conditions, but I'd love to go back on spring and summer and enjoy more. The included breakfast was also very good, with plenty of choices and good quality foods. Staff were all very friendly.
