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 KingdomRoom was very hot, only 1 window would open, ceiling fan was not working but hotel had put a large fan in our room so that was okay ! But only two drawers available for our stuff.
Room was large, well decorated and had good facilities, with great sea views. Staff were helpful to us!

United KingdomIt is a very noisy room - the noise from both inside and outside the hotel could be a problem. Some little details could be improved eg on the bathroom door there was a screw rather than a hook and there is no full length mirror.
Excellent location for exploring Hastings and St Leonards, light airy room with sea views. Staff were friendly and helpful. Check in and out was easy.

United KingdomMore plug sockets for charging phone. There were x2 holes in the wallpapered wall behind the bed. Luckily we found them near checkout otherwise it would have been more off putting. I think they should be sorted out as it didn't make a goid impression.
Great price for what we got. Very comfortable mattress. Pretty decorations. Blackout blinds were great. Nicely decorated room. Good breakfast. Nice bathroom.

United KingdomIt was a shame that the bed in our room faced away from the window. Also a little noisy till evening because of the road going pst the hotel but not a major problem at night.
Good location for the beach which is just across the road. Great view of the sea. Good breakfast. Helpful staff.

United KingdomThe whole property felt a little tired. Our bed linen was quite stiff and scratchy and the noise from the bar downstairs wasn't ideal but we did appreciate the earplugs provided. Breakfast options were limited and quite disappointing- cold stale toast and floury granola with defrosted berry compote. Pastries were also the frozen variety put through the oven.
Well-located with a nice sea view. Nicely decorated even though some furnishings were a bit tired. It is good value for money especially for such a central location - fine for one night.

AustraliaHaving to walk up 3 flights of stairs.
Love the large and bright room with good heating, comfortable large bed with nice pillows. The bathroom is quirky as it was designed like it was a bank vault. The period furniture fits well with the era of the building. We had no problem finding free parking. Adequate breakfast. Unlike others who reported the place being noisy and earplugs were supplied, we enjoyed 3 lovely quiet nights.

United KingdomThere is no lift, so not so good if you are not able to walk up flights of stairs.
Our room had a fabulous view to the sea with lovely big windows. We didn't need to close the blinds...you could lie in bed and look out at the sky...beautiful. The bed was big and comfortable, clean, the bathroom had a good shower. Breakfast was very good, a lovely choice of breakfast menus. We stayed one night and it was perfect location wise and price wise.

United KingdomWe stayed in room 13 and the shower wasn't great...the first morning the water stopped completely and the following 2 mornings the pressure was terrible. The hotel needs a little tlc in places, some fairly strange decor.
The breakfast is ok. You get to choose from a couple of options with is a wider menu you can pay extra for. The staff were very helpful. The location is great for the beach, The beds were also comfortable and our room clean.
