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 KingdomLady showing people to their tables at breakfast was being a bit abrupt with people. But the breakfast was good. Room next to me man was very loud speaking. Luckily he went back out when I was trying to relax. When you are in the bath. There is nothing at the height you are at to wash with maybe move the body/shower gel lower. I had to keep standing up
Easy location. Bath on the room rather than shower. Much cleaner than my previous stay.

United KingdomLoungers around the pool, and pool not as clean as I would like.
Last minute getaway in Suffolk, hotel is in a good location not far from most things, The food is amazing can't fault it one bit, not the cheapest but well worth the money, all the staff are very friendly and helpful spa facilities were good a little dated but still ok.. they definitely need to update there loungers around the pool alot were very tatty and some broken. And the pool wasn't the cleanest at the bottom. Our room was clean and fresh nice bathroom, bed was very comfortable we had a good night's sleep there, we didn't have a fridge in our room which isn't great think that's a basic in a hotel room.. all in all it's a nice hotel just need to update the spa side and pool are a bit.

United KingdomThe overflow car park needs a tidy, its obviously a dumping ground for damaged items.
room tired and would benefit from a deep clean. the table and chairs were worn and probably need replacing. Out of the 5 days in the hotel the sauna was only available for 2 of those days. The rooms would benefit from a fridge and hooks in the bathroom for towels, bath robes etc. the set menu in the restaurant was fine if limited for those staying several nights.

United KingdomThe room and facilities are clean enough but not spotless. There were things we could have complained about if we were fussy. The bathroom fan was very noisy. The water pressure isn't great and there waa limescale around the shower heads It took a long time to be noticed at the restaurant, they seemed a little understaffed. The towels at the pool could be bigger The room numbering system is a little confusing. It's not perfect but it is fantastic value for money.
We've been to thia hotel before and love how much you get for the money. We ate in the restaurant both nights and had amazing meals. There is a great selection for vegans which is rare, and will be recommending to my friend who can't have gluten. The pool and spa bath are lovely. The superior room was nice and had a good view of a wooded area. The mattress was really comfortable and I had an excellent sleep. The toiletries and towels provided were good.
