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 KingdomDinner Meal was not that good and could not make a decent Salad with the items provided, Cakes were like Cardboard. Had no Hot water for two days due to boiler problems. Better Parking Deals as £8.00 a Day is a another £32.00 on top of the costs. Changing Towels and getting Bins emptied could have been explained better. If room not getting checked daily could do with a toilet brush in the toilet so can clean poo away. Terrace area could do with a good clean up
Breakfast was fairly good. Staff were Pleasant

United KingdomChecking in was atrocious, had to deal with two different staff member as one left halfway through and the next one didn't get any of my information so had to start again and was waiting quite a while. Our rooms came with coffee pod machines however only one room had pods in and when I asked at reception if they had any, a lady working there with purple and blue hair whose name I didn't catch told me there wasn't any behind the desk and when I asked if there was anywhere else I could go to get some, as in anyone else I could ask in the hotel, she told me I could get some from the shop, the way she told me all this seemed a bit rude and unprofessional. There was also an issue with one of the elevators opening and shutting straight away as I was walking in with the door almost shutting as I was halfway through and it closed and went down before my partner even had chance to get in, it genuinely seemed like it could be a health risk with how it was working as I tried to stop the door and it kept on closing.
The sea view was fantastic and the bed was comfy, a big fan of the bath. The hotel decor itself was very nice and the location was fantastic.

United KingdomIt's not bad for the price I have booked, initially I was happy that there are facility for coffee and tea but when I was about to use it at midnight, there are massive limescales buildup in the kettle, I tried to clean it but still lot left and decided not to use it, didnt bother to ask for new one. Hope you check on this small details as this facilities gives happiness to people.
I like the service and the rate we got when I book the hotel. The staff were nice, especially the Filipina in the reception, forgot to get her name.

United KingdomA) There was no decafinated coffee in the room. B) There was no bedding on the bed or anywhere else in the room. C) The women in the lava lounge were not very helpful, one of them was rude. Not one of them seemed to be enjoying their jobs. No smiles, no pleasantries. D) My brother came to the hotel and asked for us, he was told that we were not staying in the hotel. E) The bathroom door was an utter let down. It looked like someone had kicked it through. There was a piece of plastic covering it. Why wasn't it just covered with py or changed. I do not take photos of the room I was on holiday we tried to ignore everything that wasn't good.
The gentleman that was working the first night we got there was lovely and a great help. There was a lovely young lady on the reception bar, very chatty, very happy bubbly and very helpful. Last time we came we really enjoyed it. Everyone was polite and helpful. The room was very period and fitted with the hotel age, we loved it.

United KingdomUnhelpful staff. Arrived at 11.00 am; quite aware check-in was not until 4.00 (rather late?) but curtly told ‘no, you can’t leave one bag each here. Take them with you’ thus spoiling the one day we had in Scarborough to some extent. The very worst customer ‘care’ I’ve met.
Setting; former grandeur; rooms were ok.
