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 KingdomParking is a bit tricky, so take up the option of parking assistance. When we went in to our room, the heating was high so we had to open some windows to cool it down, but one we had done that it was super.
The hotel is really lovely, and totally dog friendly. Our room was super with a large en-suite. The bed was very comfortable. It is ten minutes walk max from the beach. The breakfast was tasty and well cooked with a lovely selection to choose from and all palates catered for. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We hope to be back soon.

United KingdomI forget to book breakfast so we had it added by the hotel. Very disappointed that to buy toast, tea & coffee was an additional charge to the breakfast..in a 4 star hotel! Annoying. There was no water in the room, again an over-sight for a 4 star hotel and no robes.
The room was beautiful. Exceptionally decorated, clean & fresh looking. Shower room was a little on the small side, but the bedroom was spacious and light.

United KingdomParking in the area is a bit of a nightmare- there was loads of construction work happening on some nearby buildings and the roads are so narrow it’s hard to find space. There was allocated parking but a construction vehicle had half blocked us in so took some serious manoeuvre skills !!!
The lady on reception when we arrived was lovely and really kind. The bed was super comfy and the room was spotless. Loved the shower.

United KingdomThe only negative was the parking. We had not pre-booked and as we arrived late, we did have trouble parking in the surrounding streets.
The room was small but beautifully decorated and furnished, it have everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable and the room very clean. Breakfast had a last selection on an A L'carte menu and was delicious. We were also delighted to be able to take our dog, the hotel is very dog friendly.
