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 KingdomWe were put in a room in the attic which was quite warm but a fan was provided. Shower tray was blocked and started to overfill onto the bathroom floor. Being in the attic concerned us if there was a fire in the building as there appeared to be only one way down via the staircase.
Ample parking on arrival. Hotel staff are friendly and can’t do enough for you. Breakfast was ok but tbh we were all fryed out. On the days we didn’t have breakfast we were offered breakfast tray in room. Cereal croissant etc. great location for the seafront and close to Stunning Brightlingsea and Frinton by car.

United KingdomThe shower could have had stronger pressure. The room was a little small - this might be because it was a twin room. It was a little tight for space sharing with my brother.
The beds were very comfy. The breakfast was really tasty and a generous serving. It was a super convenient location - very close to the station. Friendly staff.

United KingdomThe room was very warm even with windows open and fan on, no room for case/clothes, beds were very uncomfortable, both my son and I struggled to sleep on any of the nights. Personally, I would have liked breakfast from 7 as we always go out early.
Location was ideal for amenities, beach. Very helpful staff at breakfast.

United KingdomUnfortunately the rooms had a damp smell about them. My parents room smelt more than mine. The bedrooms were very small. My mother also hung up some carrier bags on a handle on the bathroom door which she wanted to keep, but the cleaner got rid of them. You should only really get rid of things placed in the bin.
The cooked breakfast was very nice. The waiting staff a lady and her granddaughter were very friendly and so helpful. It was a great location.

United KingdomOur room was at the top floor of the hotel , up several flights of stairs, not a problem for us , but could be if we’d had any mobility problems
Staff are lovely, they are so helpful and asked us exactly what would we like for the cooked breakfast, and to ask if we needed anything. Breakfast was great . Hotel and our room were very clean . The shower was great , powerful and hot. Good location near to the beach. Ample free parking. Great value for money.
