Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

PolandThe hosts were amazing, great contact with them before and throughout our stay. They're very kind and welcoming people. They go the extra mile for their guests, which really elevates the experience. We had access to guest pantry with some light breakfast options, the room was very clean and beautifully decorated. They also gave us tips for where to dine and what to see (which did not disappoint!).

The property was amazing. We had a large room, with an exceptionally comfortable bed and a beautiful en suite bathroom. Charming and period features throughout. Yea and coffee making facilities in our room, with an additional kitchen with cereals, fresh fruit and milk. Everything you could possibly wish for was available during our stay. Excellent communication from James the owner, which made the stay feel very personable. Will definitely be returning.

This is not your average B&B. It has the feel of a luxury hotel, with the warmth of a home. Gorgeous interiors, exceptional facilities and a vibe that makes you not want to leave.

Hong KongThe house faces an uphill road. As I am very sensitive to noise, I had to use ear plugs to sleep (which were provided by the hosts) but the noise didn't bother my husband at all.
The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The room was not only clean but stylishly decorated. It was an absolute delight to find that the pantry was well stocked with fruits, milk, coffee, tea, biscuits and chocolates.

ZimbabweFabulous interior design and furnishings. Comfortable and clean. Host was responsive, pleasant and accommodating to our requests. The added benefit of the fully equipped and stocked kitchen area was so helpful for light breakfast, teas and coffee. The restaurant recommendations in the room were lovely. We walked to the Dover Cliffs as well as Dover Beach and town centre so great location. Would return and recommend to family and friends.

United KingdomWe didn't stay longer!
Everything! Both James and Ben greeted us at the door and took us to our room. We stayed in a room with a balcony at the front of the building. The room was exceptional and absolutely beautiful. Antique pieces of furniture, lovingly restored to a high standard. The room was large and had a stunning 2 seat coach as well as a small table with seating. The bathroom was stunning and pleasantly decorated. Everything was spotlessly clean. Then they showed us the hidden delight...a little kitchenette 😍 Although it states no breakfast, this had some delicious delights to start the day. We only stayed for one night but we shall be back before the year is out and will stay for longer. 10/10 and most definitely 5* Thanks Ben and James xx

Warm welcome by James. Beautifully furnished room- we loved it ! What we noticed was the amazing attention to detail. We had a lovely one night stay before getting the euro tunnel from Folkestone. Was really good being able to use the kitchen as we had an early start . The whole place also smelled beautiful! The bed was very comfortable- we had a great night’s sleep .

The house is absolutely stunning, as are the rooms, crafted with meticulous attention to detail and love in every bit of decoration. James and Ben are wonderful hosts and made us feel right at home, even welcoming us at our late check-in time. Would 100% come back for another stay.

United KingdomWe had a wonderful stay at The Dover Stop. The room was spotless, beautifully presented, and incredibly well-stocked with everything we needed. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches and the wealth of local recommendations—it made planning our time so much easier. The location is ideal, just a 17-minute walk from the beach, which was perfect for us. Communication with James was excellent throughout, even though we didn’t get the chance to meet in person—hopefully next time! We’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-appointed getaway.

Wow! This place is an absolute gem. Excellent interior design with very comfortable furnishings. Loved the many touches that made this stop "home". Good shower and veey comfortable bed. The hosts were onto it and made us feel very welcome, accommdating an earlier checkin and storing our touring bicycles safely.
