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 KingdomSome noise from outside seating, where a group of people seemed to congregate during the day/evening.
Great location next to the Baltic and Sage/Glasshouse. Easy walk over the Millennium bridge to Newcastle quays. Bus 53/54 is direct from the central train station. Staff pleasant and helpful. Buffet style breakfast with lots of choice. Good value!

United KingdomA bit of a wait at the bar for someone to serve me on both evenings. The hotel changes the barrier code every day but don't tell you when you check in. They write the number that is relevant at check in on a card but when I tried to leave after two nights the code didn't work. I have to reverse and park then go to reception for the new code.
Room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was nice and clean with plenty of hot water for showering. The bar area is nice and welcoming and the 'specials' were good portions and good value for money. The bar staff were friendly.

United KingdomThe floor tiles in our room were are bit of a state. I guess it had probably flooded from the shower room at some point. Quite a bit of noise from the floor above, but was just kids enjoying themselves and did not spoil the stay particularly. The daily parking fee of £10 seems a bit steep given the hotel has loads of parking space.
Good value hotel. Quite basic but everything worked ok, and very convenient for dropping in and out at anytime near to town centre.

United KingdomThere wasn't really anything we disliked just in general hotel rooms are getting more bare these days so a drying rack and some slippers would be nice but that seems to be the way hotels are moving these days.
I liked that despite loads of hotels and private complexes around the sight, it was really quiet all the time. We had a room with a nice view of the Tyne River. Room was bigger than expected, quite simply furnished. Like the fact it had a iron and desk, however would have a loved a clothes drying rack as the heater is not suitable for that.

United KingdomLack of aircon could make hotter nights uncomfortable although my fifth floor room was a comfortable temperature. Charging for car parking in the location is a bit cheeky.
Comfortable bed, good pillows, decent sized bathroom with good sized walk in shower. Room was very clean. Nice atmosphere in the bar when I ate in early evening. Not too much corridor noise( maybe helped by end room)
