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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 KingdomIt was quite noisy when people went up and down the stairs to the room above us but that’s to be expected in such an old building.
The location is brilliant with beautiful views of the coastline and pier from our room. We were a family of 5 and the sunrise suite had plenty of room for us. Tea and coffee facilities and a microwave and fridge which was very handy. Would definitely stay here again when visiting Deal.

United KingdomThe facilities/quality of the room was rather basic, however this is reflected in the price so I don’t consider this disappointing. The curtains were all too small however and didn’t cover the window so we had to put towels on the curtain pole as well to make it darker for our child. The armchairs in the lounge were dreadfully uncomfortable.
The hotel is perfectly situated on the sea front with fabulous views and only 6 minute walk from the train station. We stayed in the two bedroom Lighthouse Suite which was a very good size. Staff were friendly and allowed us into our room early as they had finished cleaning it. Check in/out was all remote so seamless.

United KingdomThis was our third stay at the Clarendon and we weren't disappointed. Our room was beautifully decorated and the bathroom appeared to have been recently modernised. Parking is available in the main town car park just behind the hotel. The online check-in with key code worked perfectly.

United KingdomDuring my recent stay at the hotel, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The room was not only spotlessly clean but also well-maintained, making for a comfortable and relaxing environment. Additionally, all the facilities I needed were readily available, which added to the overall convenience of my stay.

United KingdomThere should be an extractor fan in the bathroom, if possible. Parking is in a nearby public car park.
We stayed in the Smuggler's cabin which was a small suite. Great value for money. It was excellently decorated and the bathroom was brilliant. There were plenty of power sockets for charging devices. WiFi was free, and a good speed.

United KingdomThere are a lot of stairs but the hotel does point this out so it shouldn't be a surprise.
Location was excellent - very close to railway station and bus stop where you can catch buses to Dover, Sandwich etc. Sea view from bedroom window was lovely and it was surprisingly quiet. Bed was very comfy and the fridge was very useful. Orla was very friendly and helpful as was the decorator who offered to take my case down the stairs as I was leaving!

United KingdomGreat view but couldn't open the window and I can understand that for safety as the room is at street level. So to let air in from time to time we had to leave the main door open for a few minutes.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Clarendon. We stayed in the Smugglers Cabin. It was very clean and had all the things we needed. Great view and we met some staff, they were very helpful in answering our questions. Lovely place, would book again.

United KingdomThe chorus of seagulls that went off before my alarm could have been quieter but I blame nature not the hotel. Needs a little TLC in areas but it was being decorated as I was there so you can tell owners making real efforts. I am being picky - really couldn't fault the place.
Lovely little spot and just perfect as a base camp whilst working in the area. Rooms were comfy and clean with plenty of tea and a coffee. Could not fault it. It was what I was after and very fairly priced. It doesn't do food but lots of great places within 100 yards in any direction.
