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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 KingdomIt is not the property’s fault but seemed like there were clubs nearby . Was loud music and noisy at night. Could not get good rest.
Very clean and good location. Great sea view from our room made our stay very enjoyable. Staff were very polite and friendly.

SpainShower water was weak. I did not feel it reaches and washes to my legs. But shower head was fixed and i could not wash my body well. I was alone and brought heavy suitcases and bags. But nobody helped to bring them. Several male staffs in the bar just watched me. It was hard to bring them from the bus stop as well because it's uphill from the bus stop to the hotel.
In front of the coast and I could see the sea from my bed. The room is small but there are tea/coffee, a ketle and cups. And iron, hair dryer ( though the dryer in my room did not work)

United KingdomThe room was incredibly warm. However we couldn't sleep with the windows open due to the noise. The hotel helpfully provided earplugs (thank you) but these only took the edge off and it was still very difficult to sleep. A real shame (and not the fault of the hotel) but it really was incredibly loud and seemed to vibrate through the hotel. I'm not a light sleeper and I really struggled. The music eventually stopped around 4am and after that I slept like a baby :)
Beautiful room in a fabulous location. Friendly and helpful staff. The option to buy a parking permit was a bonus. Would have been 10/10 if not for the noise issues noted below. It feels a shame to knock the score down for something out of the hotel's control, but it really did have an effect.

United KingdomA little noisy due to the closeness of the main road and traffic. Also a little noisy from the late opening clubs nearby. However this was expected and I'm splitting hairs really. Our room would have benefitted from Air conditioning but a fan was provided.
Friendly welcome. Helpful staff. Great location and sea views. Fantastic nightly entertainment. Good food . Room was well presented and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was clean and tidy.

United KingdomFinding a car parking space was a nightmare, despite the permits purchased (£13 a day) allowing on-street parking in the restricted areas nearby. You really need to know the one-way system too!
Room was large, fresh, newly decorated and with great views over the rooftops of Brighton (as well a glimpse of the sea). Breakfast (£10) was good and plentiful. Location on the seafront is convenient for the Brighton Centre and the Lanes.

United KingdomThe only issues we had was the bed being a little hard for one of us and we had to buy something to cover as we adjusted to sleeping on top of the duvet. The other was the blinds. Due to be warm, we had the windows open but with the wind outside, the blinds would flap against the window from and wake you up in the night.
Location was perfect and the sea view was exceptional. You could see the sea for miles. The black out curtains and the aesthetic appearance were perfect.
