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 KingdomThe breakfast was buffet and not very imaginitive but adequate. Dinner in the evening had sufficient choice. The room was adequate but not what we would have chosen.[Hotel fully occupied]. Room looked out on a 5' wall with an overgrown hill above. Ask for a room that has a decent view.
Stayed here before so it was convenient for us to visit home town, graves and old friends. The property is in a lovely location. Stayed 2 nights. Patio for a drink or snack had a lovely view of valley.

IrelandSome of the furnishings could do with an update. The lack of a lift made bringing bags to the upstairs rooms a bit awkward, but I understand an old building brings its challenges.
We attended the wedding of our friends at the hotel and stayed overnight in Room 106. The hotel was spotlessly clean. Our room was comfortable and the shower pressure was fantastic. The bar and function staff were friendly and couldn't do enough for us, especially Luke and Eoin in the bar. Breakfast was delicious in the morning.

The location of the hotel is amazing, beautiful views. Our bedroom was very big and had great views over the Galtee Mountains. Sitting on the terrace when the weather is fine is just fabulous. Dinner was lovely, standard pub grub. The Bed & Breakfast rate was good value, when compared to many other places in the area.

United KingdomNot much we didn't like. The view from our was non-existent, but, we only booked our room that morning. This isn't a complaint. It's just a shame because I bet the view from some of the other rooms would be amazing! As mentioned, breakfast and dinner were really good. The hotel lacks veggie dinner options, but, the sole option was really good! No doubt if more options were put on, they would be to the same high standard.
Overall, this is a lovely place to stay and our experience was quite delightful. The hotel room, with its comfortable ambience and thoughtful amenities, left a positive impression on us. The room was tastefully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The bed was comfortable, providing a restful night's sleep to the well-appointed bathroom that was clean and well-maintained. The room's cleanliness and tidiness added to the overall positive experience. The hotel staff were friendly and accommodating, with a good level of professionalism and genuine hospitality. Breakfast and dinner were really good. The hotel lacks veggie dinner options, but, the sole option was really good! The location is in the countryside, meaning lots of opportunities for walks and a quiet existence. While there's always room for improvement, the minor shortcomings were overshadowed by the overall quality of the room and service. With a score of 9 out of 10, I can confidently say that this hotel provided a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I would certainly consider returning in the future and recommend it to others looking for a pleasant and cozy place to stay.
