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 KingdomMaybe the pub across the road from the hotel as it is very popular with music and drinks in full swing until quite late, we couldn’t complain about it really as we had spent a great evening in the said pub.
This is an older style hotel that has retained many of its original features which gives the hotel a wonderful feeling of style. It is clean and comfortable with staff that can only be described as being wonderful on many levels. The hotel has its own car park which for me is important especially as parking is at a premium in the town.

United KingdomAs noted above.. the bathroom needed a little maintenance work and the actual hotel car park is poor.
The location is absolutely fine, the venue is very nice and the staff are lovely. The room was tidy albeit with some minor maintenance issues regarding the tile work and finish in the bathroom. There is a temporary use of the car park at front of the hotel but the actual hotel car park is in a bit of a dire state/ that said, apparently it is locked/secured.

United KingdomThere was a very strong smell of deep fat frying in the room. We think this was coming from a large, silver flue that was situated across from the room outside. There was a continuous, strong smell within the room. When we arrived a window was open we thought that was the reason why it smelt. We were only there for 2 nights so didn't bother to complain.
The room was clean and comfortable. Overall a good sized room.

United KingdomSee above.
The hotel and room were lovely as were the staff. The bar, restaurant and common areas were great. The problems lie with the bed and breakfast. The bed was like laying on stone and the pillows needed some stuffing in them. The breakfast had a good buffet and juice selection and the coffee and tea were good as they were in our room. I had grilled kipper which was hard and cold, it had obviously been cooked a whole ago as was the English breakfast. The fried egg was good but the rest was poor and bacon was hard, mushrooms over done and black pudding wasn't nice. The service at breakfast was excellent but I wouldn't be in a rush to eat there again. Sorry.

United KingdomThe breakfast was a good size and the selection was also really good. However, the main cooked ingredients (sausage and bacon) were almost inedible as they were way overcooked. Such a shame as we were all looking forward to a rare fry-up. Hopefully reading this, it can be corrected as I would definitely stay here again.
Very good experience, underground parking for cars and our motorcycles. The rooms are large, quiet and comfortable. The ensuite bathroom had a bath/shower which worked fine.

United KingdomThe Room was ok, did feel a little dated, but was clean. Could have done with air com or a window that opened. There was a fan in the room so that was something. When I saw the venue was listed as a sea front hotel that was one of my reasons for booking, the actual veiw out the window was of the back of someone's yard which was a shame. All in all not a bad hotel. Maybe the price could of been fractionally less.
The Breakfast was excellent and the location was good with access to the town centre and seafront a 10 minute walk away. The accès to the room was good with a lift provided,Also onsite parking was available.
