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 KingdomBroken buttons on the lift could have been repaired. Perhaps have a smoking area away from the main doors - we had to walk past a group of smokers each time whilst going in and out of the main doors.
Room: one of my friends was worried that people at the hotel opposite could see into our bathroom as there was only a net curtain over the window. She showered with the lights off. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast: The cooked breakfast was satisfactory; we three are pensioners, we struggled to open the sachets of brown sauce, ketchup, etc. Towards the end, I noticed one of the waitresses setting the tables with cutlery, etc. She was wiping down each piece of cutlery with a tea towel that did not look very clean and she was handling the 'eating' end of each cutlery with her bare hands which, during this pandemic, can be a little off-putting. Staff was friendly and helpful Location: was ideal as it was close to the beach, cafes, restaurants and other attractions. Reception: staff there were extremely helpful and friendly.

United KingdomOn our last day was told by (not very pleasant) member of reception that dogs were not allowed in the room alone even whilst eating breakfast! No where on their website does it say this! Also watch out for a creepy maintenance man that goes in to your room on the pretext of fixing your tv even though there is nothing wrong with it & nobody has asked him too!!! Only one key provided even though it was a triple room.
Breakfast was nice dining room staff were friendly our room had lovely sea views there are no cleaning services in the rooms at the moment but they left plenty of clean towels outside the door & only had to ask for tea/coffee/milk ect at reception & it was provided. Most members of reception staff were lovely.

United KingdomThe decor is basic and outdated (see photos). The price was very high for a single room without breakfast. My room key had a card as key ring, with the hotel name and address, as well as the room number on it. If the wrong person finds the key or steals it from you, they know where to find your belongings.
The room was clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel is conveniently situated near the beach.

United KingdomDated furniture, window with no handle, dirty bathroom, no hot water and low water pressure, oh and the obligatory pubic hairSSS around the bath area 🤢
The staff were actually very nice and welcoming. The lady at breakfast was very joval and check-in was easy. Apart from the unkept rooms and a bit of cleaning i did myself, the bed was actually comfortable and i felt safe staying there, for a budget hotel it was ok. I wouldnt pay more than i did, around £50 a night and for eastbourne thats a great price 👍

United KingdomMinor things - a bit of traffic noise and the curtains didn't shut properly, so it was very light by about 5am (I managed to get back to sleep, but recommend an eyemask/earplugs if this would cause you problems!).
Great location - my room had lovely views of the wish tower, sea and pier to the right and the Downs to the left. Staff were friendly and helpful and the room was big with comfortable beds. Not the nicest room I've stayed in, but the view was well worth it, everything was clean and it was a lot cheaper than other options.
