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.).

IrelandThe staff training in the restaurant on the night we dined could be a little better. A bottle of wine ordered did not arrive. Then we reminded a member of staff we saw a second bottle had been added to our bill which had to be removed. Also, less intrusive attention. We had lovely staff ask us quite a lot of times during our meal "did we want something else?" Also, for a Blue Book standard, I would expect a small minibar in my room.
Great staff, spacious room, good dining facilities and restaurant overall. Reception staff were very professional and helpful. Great location. Like the style of the hotel combined with the tradition/old world charm. Fresh flowers in the hallways was a very nice touch.

IrelandI didnt stay in the hotel, I ended up in one of their nicely-furnished basement apartment across the street. My fault of course, I didnt read the small-print or details before booking. The apartment was very nice but it is completely removed from the Bishops Gate Hotel experience which is what I wanted and why I paid the high price I did. If I had wanted a standalone basement apartment I could've found one elsewhere for a cheaper price. The apartment was very comfortable of course, and my brief interaction with the professional reception staff at the hotel was pleasant. I'll just know to pay more attention in future and ensure I book one of the bedrooms that are actually in this highly regarded hotel. Thanks Stephen

IrelandWe just wished we were staying longer, everything was a delight !
Everything ! From the first moment of entering the hotel the welcome from the staff continued all through our stay. Our room was exceptionally comfortable, and the rain shower was a real treat. We decided that we would have dinner in the restaurant and we were not disappointed, the food was superb. Breakfast was also lovely with a choice of cooked and continental options available. What a shame we were only there for one night, but we will be back.

United KingdomNothing really
It's a solid good quality hotel, with a nice bar and dining room area, a modest foyer and good bedrooms. Slightly old fashioned in a good way, in the sense that it was all very well kept and maintained and the staff were all very professional and attentive. Both the breakfast food and my evening meal were very good. The staff deserve a special mention, particularly the main Receptionist of the day, she provided a very friendly welcome, gave me lots of information, ordered me taxis, remembered my name and generally provided a great deal of help to make my stay comfortable.

United KingdomOver-salted fishcakes were a minor gripe!
Valet parking organised by Patrick at the behest of Kaysie, a welcoming receptionist, was a plus in the first moments of our arrival. Our room had been upgraded in recognition of an anniversary and a lovely dessert plate awaited us. Tasteful decor and a large well-appointed bathroom certainly met with our approval. Dinner began with over-salty Thai fishcakes but was balanced by excellent Guineafowl and steak. Ciara, our waitress, was warm and welcoming. This is one of the most pleasant hotel stays we have ever had.

I couldn't fault the hotel, my only issue is that at £150 per night, I would expect breakfast to be included. The hotel was exceptional clean, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful.
