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.).

Verified reviewUnbeatable location for connecting ferry and adventure.
Needs a little tlc. Could do with a lamp or two, a fan.....such a small room. Space could definitely be utilised more efficiently. What a stunning location.

Verified reviewThe hotel was situated on the esplanade overlooking the marina and the bay. I enjoyed watching all the comings and goings from my sea view window. The rooms were spotlessly clean and a very good size for the price. Tastefully decorated with everything you could need. The staff was extremely friendly and efficient. Easy to park at the marina car park across the road for a reasonable fee. Lifts to higher floors and a welcoming reception area.
Everything was spot on! :)

Mattress seemed a little uncomfortable. The staff gave an extra mattress pad that helped a lot.

Verified reviewThe bed was so comfortable and big. Great view of the water and fab location
No fridge in the room and from the outside the property looks very tired and dated but inside our room was lovely. No aircon and the room was warm so would a fan in the room would be good
Greetings! Thank you very much for your kind words and your high rating. The outside of the property has been noted, and we are currently working on renovating it to more closely match the style of our interior. We are also working on acquiring more fans, to reduce the possibility of guests not being able to receive one, which we are aware is a common concern. Should you choose to stay with us again, we hope you will be pleased with our progress and enjoy your stay with the maximum level of comfort and satisfaction which you deserve. Thanks again!

Outside appearance is a bit off putting, rusty window frames and colour of building. Lack of parking doesn't help either. Windows really need replaced.

Verified reviewMost of the staff were pleasant and friendly. However, one individual ruined all of their kind words when at breakfast on the first morning, he claimed that my name was not on his list and he would have to phone a colleague and asked me to wait in reception while he did this. Upon getting through to his colleague, he described me not by my name or room number. Instead, he described me as the old man with long hair. He said it loud enough for the receptionist to hear, who was shocked at his choice of language but also horrified to see that he had upset me by doing so. One bad apple!
Being called a long-haired old man.
