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 dislike would be the lack of cleaning supplies? There was no toilet brush therefore making it hard to clean after our selves which isn’t fair on the cleaning staff.
Its was very pretty, and well decorated, the bed was luxurious to sleep on. Staff were friendly and room cleaning were respectful.

United KingdomThere was nothing I didn’t like.
Every staff member I spoke to was friendly and helpful. The room was so lovely and clean, very peaceful, huge comfortable bed and pillows and wonderful view. The bar staff made me feel like I wasn’t alone and my complimentary drink was a lovely bonus. Breakfast was also absolutely lovely, beautifully presented and quality ingredients. I was sad to leave and can’t wait to return!

United KingdomWent down for breakfast at 9.40 and there wasn’t any mushrooms, beans, bacon, egg or yoghurt, told us it was coming but at 10.30 we left. The supervisor was very pleasant and apologised but it was very annoying especially as we had paid for it. Many others also went without, the supervisor did offer us a refund but as we had booked through booking.com it proved too difficult.
Clean, quiet & comfortable

United KingdomNo free parking available and the paid one is expensive . The car park at the back charges nearly half of the amount so not worth to park at the hotel . Also there was a drainage problem in our bathroom . All water from the shower would flood the bathroom and had to be cleaned to avoid health and safety accidents . I advise the hotel to get a plumber who can work on the drains and let water flow through . An elderly couple would slip and fall in no time . I also did not go on holiday to wipe the hotel floor .
Good location for travelling around Devon. Clean hotel with helping staff . We were given a lovely room in which we managed to relax and sleep properly . Your average British breakfast but it was offered and it matters . Loved Latitude restaurant , definitely recommend . Live entertainment some evenings , nice bar . All in all would recommend this hotel

United KingdomNot loads of parking but we did luckily manage to find a space on this occasion.
Loved the location - right on the seafront and close to all amenities. Lovely room with nice decor and a huge TV. Very comfy bed and no unwanted noise at night time. Loved the friendly staff especially the very professional receptionist who checked us in and out and dealt with all enquiries. The breakfast was nice and the restaurant had a very comfortable atmosphere.

United KingdomThe wine list needs to be more explanatory or the staff should need to know about them when asked.
The rooms were of a very generous size and the bed was extremely comfortable. We had a sea view which on a lovely sunny day would be excellent to sit and watch the world go by.

United KingdomSadly I think the hotel is lacking staff? One person on reception all the time making check in slower than it should be, the bar only had one member of staff too again slower than it should be, breakfast needs more tables, open up the side restaurant space so everyone can be seated it seemed silly people standing around waiting for tables when there are cordoned off tables right next to the main breakfast area . Car parking is under the hotel at £15 a night I hate paying this but then most hotels have these charges these days so was to be expected. Overall a very good stay at this hotel despite these minor points.
Great location right on the seafront across from all the main attractions perfect if your staying with children, room was very nice even though we didn’t have a view we didn’t care because the room was so nicely decorated and laid out and felt very nice to be in. Breakfast was good I’ve had better, needs a better selection really more fruit would be great. Staff were friendly and helpful in restaurant and reception and fast to react to my request for a cot. Overall a very nice hotel I a lovely location. Also a very nice meal in the restaurant one night we had a lovely Sunday lunch and it was cooked very well and really tasty!
