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 KingdomVery very very dated property. Almost like travelling back to the 1960’s. Car parking was completely full, which you had to pay for. Not good! A collection of smells around the hallways, smoke, food, damp smells. Not nice. Staff on check out were inattentive and didn’t even look at you.
Location, very close to Bournemouth central.

United KingdomThe room was not great for the price especially furniture is a bit too old and not very comfortable either. Room was slightly smaller for double room. Carpet looked quite old and not very clean. Only one spoon next to cattle with tea/coffee. Light was not very bright too.
On the photos and hotel advertisement looked much better than in reality that’s what we liked from first online view.

As usual good stay. Staff are friendly accept one!!! The miserable member of staff I'm talking about needs to ask herself, ' do I like my job dealing with the public'? Other than that, good stay at Heathland.

United KingdomThe Entire stay was ruined by exceptionally uncomfortable beds which caused lack of sleep, backache, and tiredness. The mattresses were 6in thick and should have been adequate but the divan wasn't sprung and the cause of the discomfort. For this reason only, regrettably, we would not use Heathlands again
Pleasant staff, good breakfast.

United KingdomSome staff are great some are miserable! Shouldn’t be customer facing in my opinion! When booking my room, I requested a car park facing window either front or back, as I stay here all the time it shouldn’t have been an issue, Ive spent a lot of money here over the last 2 years, and even after when booking my Room this was requested in the comments. Many rooms still had stickers on the door entries which indicates room not occupied and yet I was told No car park facing rooms available! No very happy, I’ll try again next week if to no avail I will stay at the Royal Bath.
Stay here hundreds of times in the last 2 years, very familiar with the place.

United KingdomRoom service cleaner I could be at hotel for a week and no service not good enough.
When we arrived were put into room 107 we stayed one night and asked to be moved reason room was too hot and could hear everything from rooms near bye,moved us the next morning to room 10 on ground floor it was much better,the only thing that lets hotel down is that there’s no cleaner room service just when your departing think they should look into that.

United KingdomJust tired and the shower wasn't great, but this is what you tend to find with these dated hotels. But has I've said, this hasn't put us off and we will return. Great value for money.
Paid less than £50 for a nights stay in a great location. It was a lot nicer than what I expected. The roof was ok, can't fault really fault it. I've stayed in hotels on the same road as this and paid a lot more for exactly the same. We will return.

United KingdomSadly disappointed that maintenance appeared to be suffering here. Damaged doors, walls, carpets brought the whole place down. Looked really shabby and uncared for both in corridors and in the two rooms we had. Banks of Lockers in corridors and vacuums left out spoke of a lack of bother for customer experience. Felt it was a shame as it made the place feel grubbier than it was as cleaning was to a good standard. The hospitality industry has been hit hard in recent years so can see how this has happened but seriously feel that no attention to even simple things like using filler on door frames and removing broken door lock parts, resticking or replacing ripped wall paper and spot painting would go a long way to improving. On the positive side mid price, good l ocation and friendly, helpful staff. Hope it gets the injection of care it needs. With a bit of effort it could be great.
Good location, helpful staff.
