Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomGreat to have on-site parking - we were greeted by very friendly hosts who informed us of the history of the area, the best restaurants for dinner etc and places to visit - room extremely clean and tidy, had a welcome chocolate on the pillow, fresh biscuits each day with the tea/coffee tray - room also cleaned and tidied daily - hot breakfast was ordered the night before, and everything else (cereals/yoghurts/pastries/juices etc) self-serve in the morning - fresh toast and tea/coffee brought to your table - we had the last remaining room in the hotel due to last minute booking described as the Compact Room - it fitted the description - but we thought it was roomy enough for us, the ensuite had a walk-in shower, and there was enough storage space - they have made good use of the space. As it was on the ground floor next to the front door we had quick and easy access to the car park and streets that led down the to town/beach - overall, despite the bad weather, we had a wonderful stay at The Cimon.

United KingdomThe hotel had a really comfortable and friendly feel. The owners, Julia and Jamie, were perfect hosts offering advice and local knowledge, which was really helpful and enhanced our experience of Torquay and its surroundings. Very clean room and communal areas, excellent breakfast choices too. We absolutely loved our week at the Cimon and would 100% recommend.

Good location with on site car park. All the facilities needed for our stay at this very friendly family run hotel. An excellent breakfast with times to accommodate various needs during the stay, with a variety of served hot main courses. Walking distance of the town in a quiet area. Also in case of bad weather plenty of games inside and in case of good weather a heated outdoor pool and seating area. It was spot on

United KingdomThe only thing - and this is very very small - it would have been nice to have the option of white or brown bread at breakfast, but didn’t really matter.
The hotel was spotlessly clean, the staff were very friendly and welcoming, the pool area was lovely, the location was great (5 mins walk to the front). Our room was the smallest one (I knew this when we booked) but very comfy - I’ve been struggling to sleep for about a month but I had 3 nights of solid sleep at the Cimon!
