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.).

New ZealandOnly a small thing but the avocado on toast was really disappointing - maybe some seasoning and olive oil, chilli flakes instead of raw chillies and then salt and pepper on top. The side salads at dinner could have used a bit of seasoning and some olive oil as well.
Room was spacious and comfortable. After a cold, wet walk used the bath and it was glorious! Breakfast buffet was delicious - especially the pastries! Staff were fantastic - helpful, friendly and patient.

United KingdomThe whole experience was great. We came for my partner's birthday with our puppy and the time we spent in the inn was perfect, we got a spacious room with a seaside view for cheaper than what you can get for a tiny room with no windows in Central London. The WiFi was surprisingly good, the whole area gets no signal so to have a good internet connection was an added bonus; TV had built in YouTube, Netflix etc which is helpful for when the rain rolls in. The food was good and the staff seemed happy to be there. We will be back!

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing.
Everything from start to finish was perfect. Could not recommend the Lulworth Cove Inn any higher. From the moment you check in the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, the property is beautifully maintained and the location is wonderful. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner during our stay and all were fantastic.

United KingdomRoom - Toilet seat loose and toilet flush very poor. Restaurant - disappointing in a number of areas. Steak very tough and poor quality (and couple on adjacent table had same issue and complained). Service friendly but never cleared used glasses / mixer bottles which accumulated during meal. Buffet breakfast limited, and a lack of plates and glasses. Cooked breakfast (full english) was OK but nothing special.
Staff were great, and the room was comfortable and as expected.

United KingdomJust needed a little guidance on arrival at breakfast in the morning. How it worked, self service/ordering, etc. T'was a lovely breakfast though.
A wonderful welcome from Ben, who showed us to our room, very helpful indeed. Fantastic rooms, lovely views, good communication prior to visit with pre-prepared parking info. Amazing evening meal on site, not far to go. Perfect spot for walking the SWCP with local knowledge help from staff. Excellent!!

United KingdomThat we only booked one night there :)
Beautiful room we had the superior double with a balcony with a view of the cove . The room had a large bath and the bathroom had a large rain shower. We just loved the shabby chique style of the room with so much attention to detail given. Very clean and well looked after. we come to lulworth cove a lot to walk so the location was excellent for lulworth cove and Durdle door. We booked dinner for the evening and the food was excellent. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was included. Check in and out very easy . You get a parking permit for £3 for an overnight stay in the public carpark. It was freezing outside being January but the room was very warm and cosy. Lots of tea , coffee and hot chocolate in the room and a complimentary drinks card for the bar.

United KingdomThe bar could do with a refresh. Rugs are a bit worn. The restricted opening times when we stayed. We arrived about 8pm and could only order from the sweet menu. We had been driving for over 2.5hrs hoping we may have had dinner there. We did have cheese and biscuits for our evening food. The bar closed at 7.15pm on Sunday but I guess these are January hours. Overall we had a lovely stay.
Liked how it is a dog friendly stay and staff really like dogs too. The room was lovely and had a fab view of the sea. Loved the morning sunshine in our room.
