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.).

CanadaEverything. The place is old and has character. Sure there's quirky little things like the dips in the floor. But everything works, is clean and at great value. Breakfast room is set up with a family feel and I enjoyed meeting other guests. Staff are friendly and helpful. The place met my expectations and then some.

Great location a stones throw from the promenade. Typical B&B style accommodation. Friendly/family run and very clean.

United KingdomNothing comes to mind was really great experience.
Only really slept in the room but it was good and the facilities great staff are always friendly. Staying here suits needs as I don’t really stay in the room long more just in the evening. So for my purposes it’s a great match. If I was staying with a view to spend a lot of time in the room then it wouldn’t be as good as it’s basic (not in a bad way) but I think it’s pretty clear from the listing that it’s what it is. Where it really counts is the high standards of cleanliness and friendly helpful staff.

United KingdomIt was very cold and windy while we were there and the windows let in quite a draft, but heating was on full blast and was fine snuggled under the duvet.

United Kingdom(my only complaint would be that a heater in the room would have been great as I found the room cold at night) But I’m older!
I had not stayed in this hotel before. I have stayed in a few of the hotels that are in Hastings though. But this one has come out tops! My 1st impression was how clean the hotel was; not just the rooms; but the hallways and the dining area as well. The welcome was really fantastic, friendly and helpful and greeted with a lovely smile! Just lovely and welcoming thanks to Kate the Manager. I couldn’t get to the top of the hotel so easily so Kate looked after me and upgraded my room to a sea view! Fantastic! There is everything you need in the room and lovely new bathroom (my only complaint would be that a heater in the room would have been great as I found the room cold at night) But I’m older! Overall this is a very good Hotel to stay at in Hastings and I would not hesitate in booking again for my next trip to Hastings. See you then Kate and good luck! Thanks so much for everything you did for me. Great Hotel!

United KingdomThere was a nice big bath but, not enough hot water to fill it. The breakfast sounded good but there was a very limited window in which you could have it, 7.30 to 8.30 and it was a little early for a leisure stay.
Well appointed room. Received a free upgrade which, always goes down well! Breakfast was an option and smelt good although I didn't partake. Great location on the see front. Near to an underground parking garage.
