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 slight downer was that our room was cold when we got there, but I put the radiator on and we went for a walk up the village. On our return the room was comfortably warm.
Great location right by the harbour and our room had a sea view!

United KingdomHotel is at the bottom of a terrifyingly steep hill, not for the faint hearted, but worth it for the destination.
Quaint room with the most amazing view over the harbour. Sitting out on the balcony with a cuppa in the morning was divine. Staff extremely attentive and accommodating. Breakfast was excellent.

United KingdomThe hotel was great. The location was fantastic as you were right in the heart of Clovelly. Food was really nice and a good selection. If you like a walk then this is a great place as the scenery is great. We had good weather which made it even better. Everyone we met were friendly and made you feel welcome.

United KingdomThere was only one vegetarian starter and main option. The food was very nice but £26 for a small pie are carrot salad is overpriced. Also, if the starter had the same salad as the main course.
The location is excellent and the hotel rooms were lovely. The staff were warm and friendly and very helpful. Gorgeous pudding and nice breakfast, overlooking the beautiful bay.

United KingdomI suppose if we had one criticism it would be the lunch time menu choice .. really would’ve liked to have seen soup and sandwich on there but ended up with chilli loaded chips which left a lot to be desired if I’m truthful . So much so we swapped our snug evening reservations to the restaurant in hope of a better calibre of food . We weren’t disappointed
What’s not to like ! Exceptionally clean Staff super helpful , super friendly
