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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

GermanyWindows could not be properly sealed. It was very windy, so was noisy. One mattress in the double bed was very lumpy and needs replacing
View from room over the bay was excellent. Breakfast choice very good. Hotel condition other that points highlighted very good & stylish. Good sized double bed with separate mattresses.

United KingdomPerfect location! Very short walk from town centre and just on the top of the beach (on the cliff). You can use cliff lift to go down here. The room is specious with big and comfortable bed. There is also little coffee table and comfy chairs. They serve very good breakfast.

United KingdomOnly the menu for the meal in the evening purely because there wasn't anything I liked.
The staff were great, really nice , the hotel was so clean,they certainly have a great housekeeping team. Room was clean and we had booked a sea view room , chairs so you could sit and just look out. The only reason I give it a 9 out of 10 is personally I would have liked a long mirror, but other than that we would stay here again. Thank you all the staff we met you were great 👍

United KingdomNothing at all!
Our stay was perfect. We were in room 23, and it was beautiful. The views from the window seats are perfect. We chose this hotel due to having tickets for a show at Scarborough Spa Grand Hall and the location could not have been better. We headed straight out the front door to the hotel, walked across the road and arrived at the cliff trains, £2.20 return and we were at the bottom and pretty much on the Spa doorstep. Again, the gentlemen working there were chatty, polite and helpful too. Every single member of staff was friendly, polite, helpful, and exactly what you'd expect at a hotel like this. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was immaculate and lovely tea/coffee making facilities with yummy biscuits too! Breakfast was included in the price for our room. This was delicious! Again, all staff were helpful and happy! I realised on the journey home that I'd left my phone charger in the room. The person I spoke to on reception was happy to collect and post it to me! We are already deciding when to visit next, and we'll definitely be requesting the same room too!
