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 KingdomLeisure facilities very tired. Chairs very dirty in swimming pool - needed a real scrub! Left green mould on my son’s towel. Changing rooms not fit for purpose… we went back to shower in our room.
Room was clean and comfortable. Lots of tea and coffee and biscuits. Bunk bed had been secured with safety rail. Plenty of towels. Good shower. My son loved the jacuzzi! Breakfast was adequate, cooked breakfast was good.

AustraliaCoach loads of people were at the hotel and the hotel seemed understaffed to deal with the numbers when we arrived and later when we visited the bar. We were also disappointed not to be able to have dinner in the hotel. We did not understand that we needed to have booked half board to do so. Walking the streets of Bournemouth looking for a restaurant was not appealing.
We loved the historic, English feel of the hotel. It’s in a handy location, close to the town centre and easy to get around. A good size room and comfortable bed.

United KingdomNot really but the only think we noticed that there were few sellotaped on the wall near the ceiling of our bed. Maybe to cover some damages but it doesn't bother us.
The location of the the hotel was perfect to the restaurants and shops then 10mins walk to the beach. We had a breakfast on our last day and the staff were very friendly and accomodating. I spend my birthday with my family and we had a great time in their pool. Thanks Booking.com for the £16 and I considered it as my bday gift.😅

United KingdomThe decor was dated but this did not detract from the stay, in fact it added to the atmosphere. However, the floors were very creaky which meant that when the first guests got up in the morning, everyone else on that floor would be awake as well.
The hotel is in a good location close to the gardens and easily walkable to the BIC. Staff were friendly and breakfast was very good.
