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 KingdomThe shower wasn’t powerful at all. We couldn’t turn the heating on or up.
Location is perfect. Minutes away from the abbey. At least 4 pubs seconds away. 2 of which we went for a drink in and were really nice pubs! The Italian downstairs of the hotel was great as well. Lovely atmosphere, good food and reasonable prices. Room was comfortable enough, bed was comfey. TV worked, fridge worked and was clean enough. The man on reception was welcoming and friendly. At £53 the night, we couldn’t complain. Highly recommend visiting the cafe next to the Abbey also. Really good for coffee and cake after a night on the beers! Free parking for 24 hours was a bonus! Car park was small but we managed to get a space and didn’t have to pay! Would return.

AustraliaWe had a frigid room which the proprieter rapidly fixed. The bathroom had a smell that he addressed. The shower dripped, so we had to wrap it in a towel.. The hotel is in new hands, so these issues are in the process of being dealt with. My biggest disappointment was the absence of meals, but we were able to get a cheap and satisfying breakfast across the street at the bakery. The original function rooms of the hotel on the ground floor are now a very good Italian restaurant.
The building is a fine old Georgian edifice with a superb oval spiral staircase. Our room and shower room were big. The location in the main street is ideal and ut was still quiet.

United KingdomThe room had obviously hosted a wedding couple before us. There was confetti on the lamp stand and in a couple of corners - and two still-inflated balloons wedged under the bed. The whole hotel felt a little tired, but at the price we paid was still a bargain.
Booked on the day for a spontaneous break. Price was excellent and the location in Battle town centre superb. The room itself was compact but had a remarkable four-poster bed which was great fun. It was nice and quiet at the back of the hotel.

United KingdomLots of things need attention in the room,from hot water tap loose, side wall light by bed not working and loose!,shower door hanging off, curtains dont cover the windows, that's enough,a little time spent correcting these things would make it a lot more acceptable as a 'deluxe'room

United KingdomNew owners at the hotel are making great efforts to improve a hotel that had become badly run down. They are lovely people who appear to be making big strides as the money comes in. Reading previous reviews I feared the worst, however the room I was in was very clean, had hot and cold running water and a decent shower. The furnishings although past there sell by date and mismatched were adequate for a one night stay. The staff couldn’t have been more friendly or accommodating. Good carpark.

United KingdomA bit cold. I asked the staff to open the heating and he entered my room to open it without telling me when I was out. However it didn't improve the condition significantly.
Room was spacious and cosy. Near to Battle Abbey, about 5 min walk. Restaurants on the street.

United KingdomPeeling wallpaper, musty, the sash window wouldn't open, cracked glass panes, dirty pillows underneath pillowcases. Broken mirror, cheap student furniture. Vintage furniture or stripped wood could smarten it up. Creepy open door. Fire rules unclear. Didn't see smart guests so unsure about mixed use. Unexpected room visits. Noisy TV on when I got to room. Staff didn't take me to room. Didn't seleep but Battle was historic and it was so far away from where I came from, and the SE is expensive so grateful.
The building is incredibly important in architectural history with spiral staircase, fine pictures, Queen Anne eye roof window, nice proportions, good looking street front, coaching horse alley, Italian restaurant downstairs. They were forgiving that I came through the restaurant not understanding there is a rear entrance. Friendly concierge turned up to plunge the toilet.
