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 KingdomAbsolutely lovely and would happily come back again for a third time. The breakfasts are cooked to order and really nice. The rooms are nicely decorated, welcoming and comfy - we both slept really well. It's located right by the beach and you can buy parking permits cheaply from the guesthouse. It was easy to find and within walking distance of everything in the area - the town, beach, sea life centre, restaurants, etc. Thanks again for a lovely stay!

United Kingdomwe booked a deluxe room, if this was a deluxe I hate to think what the other rooms were like, the electric’s in the room were down right dangerous cables along the floor, the bath was supposed to be a hot tub it was an ordinary bath, not impressed.
the only good thing about our stay were the staff.

United KingdomThere was not free parking (as advertised), there was no sea view (as advertised), the bathroom and toilet was very, very, very small and the shower did not drain quickly so I had to keep stopping the shower every 2 minutes to let the water drain. There was black mould on the ceiling of the shower, rust on the bin and bed side tables were not clean/ wiped over before we entered the room. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and I did not have a very nice sleep at all. The bathroom sink was also next to the bed and hand wash/ lotion was not topped up. Not what you expect for a deluxe room at £110 a night.
Very close to the beach and loved the little balcony in our deluxe room.

United KingdomThe breakfast is overpriced - you have to pay 7 pounds per person on top of the cost of the room itself. There were no options for eating - everyone was given the same standard english breakfast and no-one asked for their choices! The food was ok but was a bit cold. 9am start for breakfast is a bit too late. The location is great but I think the cost of the room is a bit high given the quality which is only average. There were some problems in the room - some TV channels don't work and the shower was scalding hot - impossible to make it cooler.
Location was very good - a few yards from beach and pier. The staff are nice and very responsive. The room was clean and tea and coffee, kettle and fridge are provided.
