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 KingdomNo negatives, it was great!
Everything was amazing. The attention to detail throughout the hotel is only surpassed by the owner’s and their team who make a stay here stand out as something special no matter the occasion. The spa is small but perfect, we enjoyed our jacuzzi and an evening on the bar balcony with views of the beach. The food was delicious and Porth is a great location. We can’t wait to return x

United KingdomIt is being hyper critical to mention anything here but I am doing so in the spirit of trying to be honest and constructive. We were lucky enough to get amazing sunshine all weekend and the tower fan provided from reception didn't offer much relief. Some more powerful room fans would help sleep comfort. Other than that it was a perfect trip.
We had a lovely big room looking out over the garden. The room and bathroom were very well appointed and comfortable. We didn't have dinner in the hotel but wish we had. If breakfast was anything to go by I'm sure it would have been superb. The staff were all extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. Views from the terrace are perfect and we sat out till late enjoying a few glasses of wine to the sounds of the sea. The beach is a very short walk away and is massive, no fear of overcrowding, as a location we would find it hard to beat and nothing like some of the larger towns nearby.

United KingdomBeautiful location, friendly owner and staff, the most amazing food, both the Cornish breakfast and the evening menu were excellent all comes with a spectacular view over Porth bay. Especially recommend the Hibscus Margarita cocktails, best enjoyed on the balcony at sunset. Rooms facilities were good with mini bar and Cornish smugglers tea went down well. Will be returning to this hotel a real gem.

Everything. Lovely location with beautiful views and walks. The hotel was decorated to a high standard. We loved the mural on our bathroom wall. Our room (The Old Bar) was very spacious with separate sitting area with settee, coffee table and two chairs. A fridge, coffee machine and kettle were provided. We had a big private terrace with seating, table, sun loungers and parasol. The bar and dining area were very welcoming and relaxing with a terrace to enjoy drinks overlooking the beach. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. The food was really good.

AustraliaWe had a spacious and comfortable room overlooking the rear garden. Newquay is quite a bustling town especially over the weekend. Fortunately Porth Beach is away from the main town (on the Padstow side) but next to the beach, so the location was perfect. The breakfast is generous, and the hotel also does lunch and dinner. The decor is nice and fresh, and we had good weather. We didn't get to swim but the water looked very inviting.

This was quite simply the nicest beachside hotel I've ever stayed at in England. Everything was perfect. Lovely fresh room full of thoughtful touches, super friendly and helpful staff - all members of the same family - and a great location. The food was absolutely delicious, too. Really worth the detour, as they say.
