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...).

Germany- the request not to eat in the room, which was handed out at checkin with the keys and house rules - the bed was really not comfortable, one could feel the springs in the mattress.
- delicious breakfast - option to eat in the restaurant in the evening - option to get a packed lunch instead of breakfast on days when one has to leave earlier than breakfast starts - electric kettle and free tea/instant coffee in the room

The bar area was welcoming and the security guard that looked after us was a top bloke.....many thanks to him for sorting us out.

United KingdomThe actual hotel is very clean and comfortable, but it is a little old and could do with a full revamp. Having said that, the bar, restaurant and entertainment areas had undergone refurbishment and was always very clean and a pleasant place to be.
The staff were very welcoming and accommodating, especially since my daughter has a life threatening peanut allergy. The kitchen staff were amazing at helping us to check which foods were safe for her, and explained their preparation processes. And the food, every single dish we ate was EXCEPTIONAL. Food was just amazing!

United KingdomThe bed was too small for a double bed; the room was a good size so a bigger bed could have fitted in. We also found the main bar/dining area rather dark and gloomy which spoilt the ambience as the food was good. There was also a problem getting taxis in the evening and twice we had to cancel a booking for dinner at another location as we couldn't get a taxi. Regarding the question about how quiet was the room, one night we had people nearby laughing and talking loudly until past one in the morning but other nights it was quiet. It just depends on your neighbours.
The staff were excellent. Donna, the manageress, couldn't have been kinder and more welcoming. The food was good. The room and bathroom were a decent size.

United KingdomThe double bed wasn't the most comfortable and we had trouble with the microchip key. The hotel manager did have a look and informed me that he was able to open the door from his phone, even if he was in Australia. I would have just liked to have got in my room without being told by the lock that key wasn't working.
A very warm and friendly hotel. Breakfast was help yourself with a good selection of juices, cereal and fried breakfast serviced between 7.30 and 9. Waitress service was brilliant with ample Coffee and toast, they wayside coffee was the best I had on the island, The room was large and well spaced with large bathroom. Room service everyday with change of towels, clean cups and biscuits. There are outside rooms that would be more well suited for disabled or people who are not able to climb stairs as no lift. Entertainment is advertised such as line dancing and singing. I had evening meals there most nights cooked by Chef Aiman and team, well worth a visit for the food even if your not staying at the hotel. Hotel pool is clean and can be used by residents don't forget your own towel. Bus stop on the opposite side of the road with regular buses that take you all over the island, and one that can bring you from the airport. Not my first stay at the Wayside and I hope to return again soon.
