How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

There is parking at the hotel but we could not park our minibus there, though we could drop off luggage directly outside in reserved drop-off places. We found space by the football stadium close by, where campervans can park for free. It was close by but obviously very full and sometimes we had to wait for a space.
Breakfast was superb, and comprised an extensive buffet. Breakfast staff always arranged tables so that our party of seven could sit together. The breakfast room was spacious and airy. Bedrooms were very clean and comfortable with large beds, air conditioning but also windows that open. The hotel was very conveniently situated by a park, which was great for our grandson. Playa de Lorenzo is a short walk through the park or by the streets and a convenient bus service can take you to other parts of Gijon. There is a cafe bar on the ground floor where you can buy drinks and snacks. There are many cafes and bars in the surrounding areas.

Shower in bath. No shower cap and no body cream. I expected that from a 4 star hotel.
Close to a beautiful park. Good sized room. Walking distance to the city centre and Casco Viejo. Lots of great restaurants nearby.

Parking bit pricey, but then I begrudge paying to park my Vespa anywhere as its so small.
For the event we were attending the hotel was in a perfect location, it was a bit of a walk to the old town but manageable and actually rather nice along the prom.

Shower temperature fluctuated so it was warm at first, then cold again, then warm again. Breakfast coffee was bad. It's quite far from the city centre.

Location was great, opposite a lovely park, a joy to walk through on the way for a stroll along the beach or the lengthy promenade. The staff in the cafe/restaurant were most welcoming, a good selection of food available, evening football matches showing there brought a fair few locals in too, which gave a nice feel. Varied and plentiful breakfasts, as good as we’ve had anywhere.

Wished the frontvdesk person was more aware of things to see close by. Example was an open air museum that was 13 min walk or 5 mins in car. She didn't know anything about it.
It was nice ft desk agent understood English to answer questions. Liked that map had some places close by to eat at.
