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 KingdomHeated pool area - this was a treat for my grandson (nearly 5 years old), but wished it was accessible past 20h00. Dining area - pricey for simple meals/ sandwiches; eventually we ordered from a local 'collect' Italian restaurant. A pity as we like to dine in at the hotels with a little one (and not 'dine' in the room). Room view - would have preferred a Seaview but understand these limitations. Breakfast - a standard buffet offering Location - chose a hotel that would offer the parking option for our 2 cars; albeit discount was applied - the parking was still expensive compared to parking provided at eg Premier Inn sites (some parking is free as guests).
Central location walking distance / accessible to the eg Sea Life / oceanarium in light of a one-night stay.

United KingdomLarge selection for breakfast, though only criticism of stay was the English breakfast was a little too greasy.
Gym, Spa, and very friendly staff. Arrived after L2B bike ride, our stay couldn’t have been better. Very friendly and helpful staff from front desk to Concierge. Also stored our luggage and my bike after 11:00 check out, so we could enjoy Brighton a little longer.

I enjoyed the breakfast, comfy bed, safety hand rail and mat for bath, the position re beach front, Royal Pavilion and museum, restaurants. The staff were helpful. It was good to have carpet in the main atrium as it kept the open area quiet.

NorwayThere are parts of the hotel which are ready for an upgrade. The elevators sound like they could stop any day, pulls down the impression. There are also toilets that could be freshened up. Our room was not cheap, but a bit dull. Not super modern. Parking is horrendously expensive in Brighton, reason not to stay. £42 for 24 hours is too much. Hotel has a discounted rate of £29 which is a good discount, but still expensive. Such a high cost that it impacts where you stay.
The Leonardo Royal Hotel Waterfront Brighton has an ideal location if you want to stay centrally in Brighton and be close to the sea, the Pier and the shopping/restaurant areas. The breakfast area on "upper Ground floor" has an excellent positioning to get a nice view of the beach, the Pier and the seaside og Brighton. Very pleasant quiet breakfast area with also great variety to choose from. The room was clean and quiet and the bed was very comfortable. Public Parking garage underneath is very convenient.

United KingdomOnly two small criticisms. 1. The water pressure in the bathroom could have been better. 2. On our last full day, we had to phone housekeeping in the afternoon, as our room had not been serviced and we had been out for the whole morning and two hours of the afternoon.
The breakfast catered for all tastes and was plentiful. The staff were courteous and helpful.

United KingdomOne thing that could be improved is the mattress as it was abit hard. Another thing is the price you pay for parking, I feel like the price you pay for a room you should get free parking or abit more discount as what we paid for 1 night was abit extreme but otherwise it was an amazing hotel
Loved the breakfast, there was lots to choose from and love the location of the hotel
