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 was a nightmare, very limited and very tight spaces. Wasnt overly clean, hairs in & around the bath before we had even used it so was obviously from previous people. Dirty marks on the towels. Very thin walls as could hear person next door snoring & also could hear her phonecall very early in the morning! Got woken up by it.
Fantastic location, very close to the beach & lots of bars & restaurants & shopping! :)

The location was perfect. Located overlooking the beach. We received a free upgrade to a sea view room which was a nice touch.

United KingdomThe lift was a bit of an inconvenience, we’re a young couple so don’t mind the stairs, but if you’re reliant on a lift it would be a hindrance.
They managed to get us in quickly after a failed booking at another place - very much appreciated. The layout of the building and bar area was nice, breakfast was well organised and tasty. We thought it was good that the bar toilets could only be used by people staying at the hotel.

United KingdomI have a lot to say here, so will bullet point it all down; - Damp in the bathroom, with the ceiling flaking off when we were using it. - Bathroom was not cleaned properly, as we found used contacts in corners that were there from the previous people - Rooms are not soundproof; we had to endure babies crying, loud music, banging of doors and could hear actual conversations through the walls - Breakfast was ok; the fresh fruit was not freshly cut and smelt off so I couldn't eat it. You can only order 1 thing off their menu, and they only have bread or 2 x cereals out for everyone to have. - The hotel reception staff were ok; one lady was so hard to understand and spoke so fast when checking in. When asking her questions about parking, I got weird looks like I was asking something silly. - Parking - located a small walk away from the hotel, in some random car park. You can't rock up, you will need to ring to find out your bay number before parking too. We ended up parking on the curved part of the wall, which was not ideal and then ended up with a scratched car when checking out.
The location was great, as we were right near the beach. The room was a decent size with much room to move around. The breakfast was good, but not the greatest. Overall not bad for what you pay for.

United KingdomMade staff aware I was allergic to garlic and was still served a traditional breakfast that contained a high amount of garlic,after the server said that no garlic was present in a traditional breakfast,I began eating and immediately had a reaction that I needed to use an urgent epi pen,after telling said server he took it away and came back to tell me that tomatoes,baked beans,and mushrooms all contained garlic..who puts garlic in a British traditional breakfast???....a breakfast was then re cooked for me containing no garlic.. For me this was life threatening and I will be seeking legal advise. Servers should have more knowledge about the food they are serving for this reason.
Fabulous arrival reception staff.
