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 air con in our room did not seem to work very well and you could not open any windows.
We stayed as a family with two children and our dog. The hotel was beautifully decorated and facilities were excellent. Food was also very good along with the location which was quiet and peaceful but not far form the Porth Bay beach. View over the cliffs were also spectacular.

United KingdomEverything was really good generally but our kids are a bit older and said that their beds were quite hard (room 220) and so they didn’t sleep well. The double bed was absolutely fine.
Lovely decor, clean and bright. Recently refurbished to a high standard. Great sea views from our room. Very dog friendly. Nice pool and great gym.

United KingdomThe attached restaurant felt understaffed during our stay - service was still warm and friendly but food was quite slow. The set up was a bit more AirBnB while the price was very much in the hotel range - for that price I would have liked a turndown service, restocking on toilet paper, fresh towels etc during our stay. The lack of staffed reception area (although you could always get hold of someone if needed) meant it was a very hands off experience, which some may like, but I always enjoy a smile and a welcome as I go out or return of a day - a very small thing though, all in all we had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend.
Great design, lots of space in room and a separate bedroom for little one - so rare but so welcome when on holiday with children! The swimming pool was excellent and spotlessly clean. Wonderful location, a short walk along the coast path to the beautiful Watergate Bay. Cafe and restaurant both served great food and drinks. The children’s activities in the garden were a real hit with our 4 year old.

United KingdomThe only one downside was noise from other people. The floor board and walls are very thin.
Absolutely amazing from check in to leaving. We was greeted with full information and a warm welcome. Our room was very spacious with everything you need. Check out was 10an but we didn’t want leave Cornwall till later but was still allowed use of the pool and shower facilities which I thought was very nice.

United KingdomCafe is closed in the evening. Food and service in the attached restaurant are very mediocre but there is no other option nearby. Newquay town centre is too far to walk if you have young children. I expected more for the money. No capsule coffee machine or bluetooth speaker in the room. Rooms only serviced every 8 days. You have to take your rubbish to the bins and do the washing up before you leave.
Comfortable room. Very good facilities for children (pool, playroom, playground, nature trail, maze). Very good food and coffee from the cafe. Good location. Porth Beach and Watergate Bay are walkable.

United KingdomThe hotel is fabulous - we would just love to visit for a day - if we aren’t able to stay overnight - so a locals day pass where we can use the facilities and eat in the cafe or restaurant would be beneficial.
Easy to park, Staff were welcoming, facilities were great and exceptionably clean. Swimming pool, jacuzzi and changing area is fabulous. Room was extremely clean, well designed, comfortable bed, and easy to relax and cook in. Breakfast we had in the cafe downstairs, lovely quality, good prices and great service. We checked out and then used the pool again before we left. We’re a local couple, both self employed and chose to try here over our regular one night getaway on the other side of the bay! We’ve already rebooked to come back!

United KingdomThere wasn’t anything I didn’t like — everything was great. If I had to suggest one improvement, adding a sauna and steam room to the swimming pool area would make the experience even better.
The concept of having a studio flat within a hotel is fantastic. The apartment was thoughtfully equipped with everything one might need, making the stay both convenient and comfortable.

UkraineIf you plan to stay for more than 2 days, you will have to take care of cleaning your room, toilet paper, garbage bags, dishwasher tablets, washing towels in the common laundry room where there are 2 washing machines for the entire hotel complex. Or for an additional fee, they can do it all for you.
Gorgeous view from the window, friendly staff always happy to help or advise, wonderful pool for both children and adults, restaurant and cafe on site, private kitchen in the room to cook for yourself, parking, nice playground and playroom, laundry room, tennis courts.

United KingdomI arrived 10 minutes before check-in and was told the room was not ready, so I would have to wait, but it was ready for exactly the check-in time, which I found a bit strange. After my visit, I also relent that the price of the hotel was quite a lot for 2 nights, considering I was visiting friends and did not have time to use the facilities. I think it would be worth having a booking option without the facilities as it's not always possible for guests to use these and can be considered wasted money.
The hotel, location, and view were amazing. I saw in another review that the pictures did not do the view justice, and I couldn't agree more. The facilities offered were more than other hotels I had stayed in. Overall, I had a great visit.
