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 KingdomFacilities were lacking a bit, no bottled water in room, no coffee machine which is pretty much normal in rooms of this quality and no fridge. Tea tray was sparse, 4 coffee sachets, 4 tea bags, 4 milk pots. No fruit/herbal teas. For the size of this room (room 5) I was disappointed that the bed was not a super king. With the age of the building, there was a lot of noise from creaking floorboards from the room above. Some of the decor was tired and lacking in TLC.
Food was excellent, room was very spacious and bed was extremely comfortable. Location is great, right on the river Waveney.

FranceNo elevator access to upstairs rooms which made it difficult for people with limited mobility. Also, the road into Beccles town was closed because of repair work, which made road access to the hotel difficult - BUT important to emphasise that this is a temporary issue only.
A lovely hotel, super location. Very clean throughout. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room was excellent, good facilities and very clean. The quality of the food was excellent, we really enjoyed eating in the restaurant with a view of the river.

United KingdomWe have stayed before and the only issue we have had on each occasion is that the mattresses are fast too soft for us so we don't get a good nights rest. We fully understand that it is a matter for ones choice.
Breakfast on both days was very good. We had to wait some time on the second morning to be served as there appeared to be a young waitress on her own but we were not in a rush so didn't cause us an issue. Room was adequate for our needs which was nice and clean.

United KingdomSoft mattresses
A very peaceful location, although we were woken up at 6.15am on our first morning,buy a member of staff dumping something in rhe bin,thankfully this didn't happen after our second night. The room, the twin on the top floor ( No8) is a nice room ,very high beamed ceiling and fairly bright. Unfortunately the mattresses were too soft for our liking,the hotel throughout is very clean and well maintained. The cooked breakfast was lovely and hot and fresh, and good quality food. Waitresses in the dining room were friendly, I would however suggest the reception staff had a bit of training in being friendly and welcoming, most were lovely, but a blonde in particular, was hard work. The hotel is well located to the town, only a short walk away from a few pubs and restaurants ( I would however call and book early if you want a meal out) as the town seems to be loosing some of them, or they're too busy for any bookings. One thing to note,there is no WiFi in the room, only in the reception area and restaurant. Overall it was a pleasant stay, would have been nice if we had enjoyed our trip on way out.
