Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomNot a thing.
The house and grounds are beautifully maintained to a high standard, so first impressions are amazing. We were thoroughly spoilt with delicious breakfasts served in a pretty breakfast room. Pearly even marked our 50th wedding anniversary with a fabulous cake and went above and beyond. Loved the location, too.

United KingdomParking was a bit challenging with the limited capacity, but I managed to park next to the Shanklin Chine for free and went back there for an evening stroll, so not really a big deal.
Fantastic service in a prime location, only 5 minutes walk from the Shanklin Chine, a few minutes from the Shanklin village, and steps away from the beach front.

We were warmly welcomed by Pearly. While we enjoyed delicious complimentary cake and tea she gave us tips for walks and visits and a personal review of all restaurants in the neighbourhood. The room was light and cosy, featuring coffee making facilities, water, biscuits and chocolates. The breakfast was superb with many options (all delightful). Pearly and Mark constantly made sure we had everything we needed. Thank you for being such wonderful hosts!

United KingdomHard to fault. Not modern, but neither is the Isle of Wight. Only criticism I can offer is that the shower cubicle was a bit small for an average adult. But it's a Victorian House after all.
Pearlie and Mark work so hard to make the stay the best they can offer to their guests. Starting before we went to our room, we were served home-made cake and cups of tea to welcome us. They are interested in everybody as if guests are family and made a special effort with our 9 Yr old grandson to make sure he was happy. Pearlie also explained and showed him her rocks and minerals collection as he was interested. Comfy beds, good toiletries in the bathroom, fresh biscuits with tea making facilities, and a welcome chocolate when the beds were made up. Freshly cooked breakfasts daily and directions and advice where to visit. Great situation to walk to the esplanade or the village centre. Plus free parking on site.

United KingdomExactly what you’d expect from a boutique, independently run hotel. Lovely size rooms with very clean ensuite. Mark and Pearly are very accommodating, friendly and can’t do enough to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. When I arrived I was warmly greeted and offered a cup of tea and homemade slice of cake. The room was very clean and it was cleaned daily which was unexpected but very much appreciated. I was only staying whilst having some work done on my apartment locally, but it was definitely worth it and would highly recommend to anyone looking for somewhere rated to stay for an island holiday. Also, breakfast was amazing! You have to try Mark’s homemade omelette- delicious! Thank you so much Mark and Pearly! Thanks, Matthew
