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 KingdomReception. Lines of check in and checkout could do with better organising in terms of the line as the majority of guests came through the turnstile door. Ladies changing area for spa were very small and no instructions on how to lock the lockers.
Very nice room and lovely communal areas. Excellent service from the team who worked very hard but also very professional and diplomatic with difficult guests. Simba in the bag area was so delightful he really engaged well with guests old and young. There was a chap in the bar (sorry I can’t remember his name) went above and beyond his job role to help guests who were looking for help. Breakfast team had their work cut out as there were so many families but took time to rearrange tables into larger groups and got children settled and fed quickly! Absolutely amazing selection and quality of food at breakfast. Loved the fact that there were plant based options for Vegan guests which were easy to find and of excellent quality.

United KingdomWhen we arrived a little early we had to que at the reception desk for approximately 10mins, our room was not ready so we went for lunch and came back at just gone 4pm at which point there was a large que of approximately 20 people and only two reception staff. We waited another 20 mins. We were surprised there were so many dogs in the hotel.. There was no fridge in the room and was smaller than expected for the price. When we went down for breakfast again there was a que for getting into the dining room. We were then taken to a side room which was slightly shabby and the tables were very wobbly and old looking. We felt a little sidelined. We had arranged this for our 19th anniversary and it took the luxury of staying in a hotel down to only ok. A real shame. The staff really tried their best but there was not enough of them.
Staff were very good but there was not enough of them and they were under pressure. The room was clean but a little basic. The food was nice.

United StatesWe had a great room but reception for both mobile phone service and wifi was very weak to non-existent in our room which made it difficult to do a couple of necessary work calls. There was one corner where it worked, but they could do more to make sure WiFi is properly accessible in all rooms of the hotel.
Amazing location right on the beach! The hotel is very large with a ton of great amenities including the pool, restaurant, spacious rooms and more. Staff was very friendly and accommodating in our early arrival.

United KingdomCheck in took ages, don’t expect to pay this price and be made to queue for 15 mins. Any time we went through reception there was a queue. Cheeky charge for car park which belongs to the hotel. Parts of the building were a bit shabby and in need of a touch up.
Great location and lovely building.

United KingdomAlthough there was plenty of choice for breakfast the food was cold which was dissapointing but this is generally what happens when it is a buffet and catering for large amounts of people. Was expensive for a two night stay but ok for a special treat.
The room was large, modern & clean- the hotel was lovely. Great location for exploring Brighton- right on the seafront and walking distance to the shops, lanes and restaurants.

United KingdomI called up the day before for the sofa bed to be made up and we were unable to check into our hotel when we arrived as the sofa bed was being made up, however, when we got there, it wasn’t done! Couldn’t get through to guest services from phone in the room. WiFi code didn’t recognise my surname despite that being the name on the booking, couldn’t get through to guest services on the phone to sort. No mini bar Spa - was A LOT smaller than advertised and did not look enjoyable, we decided not to go into the pool area
Loved location, right on the seafront. Hotel was clean and decorated well. Staff were unbelievably helpful!
