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 KingdomNot much, bar food menu had a lot of deep fry dishes, would have liked more options. Breakfast staff could have been a bit more active and anticipated running out of glasses etc.
The lovely room we were allocated,was well equipped, iron kettle etc, water supplied.Nice decor and bed linen. Fantastic views. Room121 The Spa and pool looked great,but didn't use them only because the weather was so good( we took advantage of the coastal walks).

United KingdomSome bits let the overall feeling of luxury down. There is one tiny lift for the whole hotel, and it’s noisy (especially if your room is near the lift as ours was - could hear it right up until 2am then started again just before 6am). Service in the bar was very hit and miss - had to go up and order at the bar as the staff ignored us, overall it felt like the staff didn’t want to be there and had no idea what they were doing. The spa is good but no robes or slippers in the lockers (which still take £1 coins!) and the spa could do with a good scrub. It’s a good hotel but absolutely didn’t feel worth what I paid for it.
The location is great - beautiful tree lined street at one side, looks out to a stunning view over the water at the front. The style of the hotel is ‘Grand Dame’ and for the most part the public areas feel lux and welcoming. The spa has a good thermal suite with a range of showers, saunas and steam rooms. Breakfast was fabulous - they won points back for breakfast!

United KingdomEverything was great, overall. I found the duvet a bit over-warm (but we were experiencing an unseasonably warm April), but the beds and bed linen were super-comfortable, which definitely compensated.
Such a beautiful location and a hotel with real charm. Spa was perfect for our needs after long days exploring the coastline. Lovely food in the bar and a great ambience everywhere in the hotel.

United StatesThe hotel needs to review its bar and kitchen organizations. Perhaps more staff. In the lounges, it was always a wait for both a server, and then the drink. Similar for breakfast. Worth waiting for, though.

United KingdomThe hotel was stunning, and the sea views from the lounge/dining areas exceptional! My daughters and I stayed in the double double room, which was perfect for a family with lots of space and generous sized beds. We all enjoyed the spa facilities and treatments, with staff contacting us well ahead of time to make sure we were prepared to get the most from our experience. The high street and Seabird Centre were just a 10-minute walk away and the beach just a few minutes. Parking was just across the road from the hotel with plenty of spaces. I would also recommend the Sunday lunch.
