Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomThe room was just incredibly basic. Bed, bathroom and some packet coffees and UHT milk which tasted off. Room walls were also very thin, I could hear the conversations of the couple next door word for word.
The Concierge at the front desk was lovely! He was very helpful and always smiling

United KingdomThe shower in room 18 had low water pressure, more of a trickle. Not a big problem but it did take me a tad longer to wash in the morning.
Great location, really friendly staff and altogether a nice warm and comfortable room. The hotel manager also was very friendly and booked me a cab at short notice when I had to rush to a meeting. The bed was also very comfortable.

United KingdomThe water was not good. Poor pressure, not warm. Took me hours to take my bath in the morning so I was very late for my business. I could bath in the night as it was cold water.
The Internet worked well. The bed / bedding is good. The TV working, but the channels, well they didn't show any sports.

United KingdomBathroom was clean and tidy, but this would be the only part of the room I would say would benefit from an upgrade. Would also be nice if parking was included with the stay.
Room met my expectations and the location to the town and seaside was excellent.

United KingdomThe bathroom was clean but not super clean, the room (we had two singles) would have struggled to fit a cat in it let alone swing it around. I think the hotel is aimed at groups planning a night out in the town, and it fits that model well, so expect thin walls and the possibility of drunken people talking loudly. (Although on our 2nd night there was a large group of lads staying and we never heard a sound out of them when they rolled in). Only having one key between us was pain and be prepared to pay an extra £10 for parking per night
It was super convenient for conference and conference hotel. The room was basic cheap and clean (but very small).
