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):
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 KingdomThe lift was absolutely tiny could hardly fit the pram in. The room was not clean at all, someone’s dirty socks and tongue bar on the floor and under the bed which wasn’t good as I have a 1 year old who could have touched it.
The entertainment was really good and downstairs was lovely and the staff were funny and well mannered

United KingdomBreakfast staff were not very organised and needed some training, for the first 5 mins no staff were on hand, bread and milk ran out. Balcony table and chairs need updating.
Room we had was overall good, silver sea view, didn’t disappoint. check in at reception was great, however the online portal was not quick and didn’t really save any time for myself or the reception staff. Breakfast was very good value. Overall staff were excellent and professional. Rooms were clean but minor issues could be seen if you checked closely. Shower was good and hot. Lack of toiletries. tea tray well stocked.

United KingdomThe Reception is at the back of the building and on the lower floor. A sign to make this clear at the front of the building would really help stop confusion. For a family room it was alot smaller than other hotels we have stayed in. Parking - In the self check in information you read it says thay the hotel will keep your keys during the stay which I was hesitant about but when you get there it makes sense - parking is like a jigsaw puzzle so maybe sharing that a member of staff may be moving your car because of this at time of booking would help - transparent is great.
Staff were very friendly and helpful when needed. Room was cleaned on request and that is something we prefer. The breakfasts were great and there was a good choice of foods. Parking was available in a limited space. Location is great. Food in the restaurant was well priced.

United KingdomBeds too soft, we had to move rooms and the alternative room offered wasn’t as good - less spacious. Clearly some sort of IT admin error as we didn’t get our early check in, then we had to move rooms, then our booking for an evening meal wasn’t on your system and neither was the breakfasts, just made it more stressful than it needed to be. Disappointed with the second room 118 is not as good as 218.

United KingdomOur room was rather cramped and involved a maze of stairs and corridors to get to it, with view over the backyard. We had to park on the street. There is parking offered but it involves giving your keys to staff and they Jenga the car into a yard with all other cars.

United KingdomThe rooms need to be upgraded. The stains on the toilet need addressing. Big crack in the wall and the paintwork requires attention.
When i booked to stay, i informed you about my wife's health issue with eating before lunchtime. The first morning, I asked for a continental breakfast, and what I was offered was alarming. I complained to the front house, and the receptionist said it would be sorted. The second day, I asked again and was told what you see is what you get. Third day, I didn't bother, therefore booked with breakfast included, and my wife missed out on 3 breakfasts.

United KingdomRooms:- smaller than advertised, bathroom smaller than advertised, windows still in old creaky frames. Lift/stairs:- No easy disability access e.g. Wheelchair access etc . The lift is very, very small and can only fit 2 people in at a time - maybe 3 with a child. Lots of staircases - although understandable really as the hotel is Victorian. Keys:- This is very tricky. You can take your room key when you are out, coming back you can go to the front door and open it yourself by applying a code (it's on the keyring you are given). Simple fact - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't so can be a little annoying. There is a doorbell/button, but that wasn't answered. Entrances/Exits:- Easy access on the whole - but be aware of the steep stairs in some places as the building is so quite old.
Staff - Warm and friendly and always happy to help with any questions. Restaurant/bar etc:- Great quality food and drink, great choice, clean, well-presented and fun cocktails. Salon:- Amazing, the therapists are wonderful young ladies. I'm a beauty therapist also and could tell they were well trained and fully qualified. Very friendly and chatty also, and that makes a difference with a client. Location:- Within immediate walking distance to the beach and town centre. Also full of fun activities/games - karaoke, pool, puzzles and an 'Escape' game.

United KingdomRoom wasn't the cleanest it could be. We are pretty easy to please so we didn't worry too much about the small stuff. Didn't really feel like the pictures on the website was a reflection of what we personally got. Felt we may have drawn the short straw with the room we had. Bathroom although recently renovated is tricky to negotiate. Couldnt stand at the toilet due to eve of roof in the way. Pretty inconvenient for a 6ft something guy. Nothing a sit down wee wouldn't solve though!
