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 KingdomCentral heating system was a bit noisy. but it's an old hotel with an old system. We just turned off the radiator before going to sleep and it was quiet enough.
Great hotel. Great location. Simple and effective. Good base for a few days stay.

United KingdomNothing comes to mind. Parking is limited. However there is a car park right next the beach if needed
The location is great in Minehead. Right by the train station, a stones throw from the beach and on the road with plenty of shops and pubs. The breakfast, which was included was great quality, freshly cooked by apprentices learning the trick of the trade. Big thumbs up to them. Will definitely be back

United KingdomOur room was tucked around the corner and for the whole stay there was dirty linen in the corridor. To be fair we didn't mention it to the staff.
The staff are lovely here and the food and location is excellent. We understand it is a training hotel but we always have a good stay and good food etc.

The large room, the bath with plenty of hot water. The vegetarian breakfast was amazing. Pleasant and helpful staff always at hand. The view and the peacefulness and the easy parking made our stay perfect.

Very friendly staff - i was given a warm welcome and told all the info I needed. The location is right on the waterfront but still close to the town. Comfortable room - maybe not the most modern but clean, well equipped and with a comfortable bed. Great breakfast.

United KingdomRoom could have done with table and chairs as nowhere to sit apart from on the floor/beds, we certainly got a leg workout as the room was top floor and no lift, (not complaining, you just need to be fit) Didn't get a room refresh which was unusual as most hotels check the room at least once during customer stays, we ended up buying necessary supplies for room and left 2 rubbish bags as the bin was not emptied once, shower could do with a handrail on wall to aid getting into the bath, shower itself went from one extreme to the other, little power to it either, Breakfast eggs had runny white which put me off instantly, no visible option of toast either...
View was spectacular, staff were always friendly, one in particular was exceptionally helpful, can't remember her name unfortunately, but she was young, dark hair, glasses, always smiling. Location to bus/heritage railway was practically on the doorstep, shops and supermarkets were well within reach, if it wasn't so difficult to get there without a car/liking for being squished like sardines on public transport, we would love to come back again. Bacon Brioche was brilliant!

United KingdomWas put in a room without a sea view even though we paid extra for it and couldn't close the window. Staff where great though and quickly put us into another room so it wasn't a big deal. Only other minor detail was the coffee pot wasn't cleaned out in our room we eventually got but the rest of the room was very clean.
Room was nice with a good view nicely situated close to see front. Nice large cups with plenty of tea making facility's. Breakfast was lovely. WiFi was excellent in our room.

United KingdomThe bar chiller broke so we were served warm lager and cider. I made do with the larger, but when my son asked for a cold alternative the bar manager wanted to charge him the extra. Unfortunately it wasn't the best bar experience. The bar staff could definitely offer better service.
Room was lovely, although because we had the window open it was a bit noisy, but can't do anything about that.
