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...).

Saudi ArabiaThe location was excellent, within comfortable walking distance of the centre of town and the coastal walk. I had an ensuite room which was spacious, well appointed with the necessary coffee and tea etc, and clean. I'm a theatre nurse and a little OCD about cleanliness; the room and hotel satisfied my picky expectations.

United KingdomThe bed we had(double in room 3) was terrible. Mattress was awfull, you could feel all the spring through it. So I was really broken in the morning. This is something that would be an easily fix and at the end this is what a good hotel has to provide.
The friendliness from the staff, very welcoming. Big and nice room and good ensuite. Very nice towards our doggies and ideal located near the beach.

United KingdomThere is just the one central staircase in the middle of the house and no lift. It does mean that particularly if you're on a lower floor you may hear people come in the front door, and a few guests were a little noisy coming in late at night chattering away as they climbed the stairs. You may also occasionally hear a dog bark because the hotel accommodates pets. There is no manned reception desk.
The hotel is located in one of the older "posher" areas of Folkestone - very large houses now mostly converted to flats. It is handy for buses and about a half mile from the railway station. The rear rooms overlook the Folkestone Leas from which it is a short walk down the cliff path to a park and the beach. The room I had was a nicely furnished double room with an ensuite shower room. Both rooms were a good size and the bathroom was very well fitted with a large walk in shower and plenty of drawers and a cupboard for your toiletries.

The sleep 5 Family Room was ideal for our needs, was clean and comfortable and had a fantastic sea view. Continental style breakfast was basic but adequate. Also appreciated the ability to rent a garage for car parking, which gave peace of mind, although access to the garage is restricted.

United KingdomBe warned it’s quite a tall, narrow building so you may have to walk up lots of stairs, we didn’t mind too much but might be a struggle for some. Also a bit of a walk to town but in a nice quiet area next to the sea.
Lovely sea view, good sized room. The staff were all lovely, friendly and helpful.

United Kingdomeven though it was basic they could do the investing in few more things just to make it feel a bit more cared for. better bedding would make a big difference for example
location, value for money. it was clear before booking in this was a value for money establishment so my expectations were set to that level.
