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.).

Verified reviewI went with my daughter for a last hurrah before she goes on to university. We loved it, the room was very large and the house was beautifully decorated and we had a lovely meal ( with a discount for staying here) at Naxos in town. The breakfast made by lovely Jane ,was incredible, we rolled out of there, fully fed. Tremendous value for money and beautiful. Mark was lovely too.
There was nothing to dislike.

Verified reviewBeautiful Grade II listed property which has been superbly renovated and decorated to a very high standard. A complete air of calm and tranquility, exceptional host and first class breakfast. Martyn also sent a very detailed email several days before our visit recommending restaurants to suit all budgets and tastes. We were spoilt for choice….and even got a discount at Naxos (which was also superb) in the town by saying we’d been recommended by Belle Vue. Overall we would highly recommend Belle Vue Guest House.
Nothing! Everything was first class!!

Verified reviewThe property was much more than expected, stunning location, free parking, quiet, trendy, clean, very spacious rooms, beds unbelievably comfortable. Breakfast ( I think the best I’ve had). I chose bacon, avocado , tomato on sourdough. Delicious. 😋. Martyn greeted us on arrival, helped with our bag and showed us up to our room. Couldn’t ask for better service. Would definitely recommend.

Verified reviewMartyn was a very attentive host and was very helpful. Breakfast is optional but not to be missed. It’s very good. My room was Nelson on the ground floor. It was very generous and comfortable with a large sofa that could be used as a second bed. The bathroom was a very high standard. The whole property is well cared for and of a very high standard. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m over from Australia.

Verified reviewAn excellent B&B. Communication from the hosts is great, with lots of information to help make the stay enjoyable. The rooms, and the whole building, are finished to a very high standard and it’s immaculately clean throughout. The bed was really comfortable, I slept very well, despite the warm summer night. Breakfast was perfect with lots of choice.

Verified reviewWe decided to go on a spontaneous escape as a family and Belle Vue Guest House was our first stop, we wanted somewhere that was on the way to the coastal destination we had in mind that was well presented, family friendly and within a sensible budget. Belle Vue was exceptional and we would definitely want to visit again and explore more of the surrounding areas. There are about 5 rooms in total, which made it feel quite intimate. Almost like staying with family members for the weekend. The location was easy to find, nice and quiet location. Decor is of good taste and rooms presented very nicely. If you’re planning to stay we would recommend booking with the breakfast too! Thank you Belle Vue Gueat House!
