How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

No vibe in the hotel, very outdated and tired. Budget accommodation with no frills. Overpriced for what you get.
Located away from the tourist hotspot in a quieter part of Sete near the train station. Room was clean and air conditioning was good.

The manager— the first morning he was banging on the room next door to us at 10:55am screaming “out, out, out”. The next day when we were leaving, he did the same to my wife at 10:57 yelling at her.
The bed was comfortable, the A/C worked well, good location

It would be unfair to criticise an adequately run budget hotel.
This is our third stay at this property. We visit friends who live in Aubais but we like to spend a day or two in Sète before onward travel. It is not far from the train station which is convenient. It is a budget hotel, in a quiet location, within walking distance of everything in Séte. Cafès and restaurants are nearby. We walked up Mont St Claire on a Sunday, not for the faint of heart because you will ascend 300 steps on the approach we took. This walk gave interesting views down on Sète through residential areas. The view from the top is spectacular.

It would be nicer if the bathroom has walls to the ceiling. And internal noise canceling / isolation should be improved. Everytime when another hotel guest flushed their toilet I woke up.
I liked the location close to the center of Sète and with many options nearby to park my car. It was quiet outside. I liked the balcony opposed to the theatre.

Nothing
Le National is a lovely cosy hotel which provides everything needed for a comfortable stay. It is in a great location close to the train station with cafes nearby though there are road works around the property it wasn’t a problem for us. There is a lift to get upstairs. The owner was very helpful especially as we don’t speak French, breakfast was lovely with lots of choices. I wish we had more time there.

Nothing really. The place is central enough and within walking distance to pretty much everywhere
Stayed in this place a month ago during my cycling trip. The receptionist, a very nice man in his 50’s was very friendly and helped me to store the bike at the hotel. I was wrecked tired by cycling that day and he also helped me out to check in slightly early. 10 out of 10🤙

It was a small price and the room was small. The shower was just a little too small.
Central downtown location. Good price for the location and high season time of year. They were able to accommodate my bicycle inside for €5 extra. The air conditioner worked well. The morning continental breakfast for €12 was very nice.

The room I had was quite basic, and the decor was from there 70’s. It could do with a more thorough clean.
It’s an easy walk from the train station. There is a street market almost outside the Hotel on Friday. Cinema close by. Bar/Restaurant on the corner of the street. In short the location.
