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.).

The staff, they were extremely nice and helpful, and very professional at the same time, always had smiles on there faces and made you feel comfortable. The experience, it is a unique place and setting, every part of the resort offers something different., in its architecture and design to its relaxing and friendly atmosphere. The scenary, even though we were there while the weather was pretty poor, you could see and hear the waves from the sea and golfers in the backdrop... amazing.

United KingdomUnfortunately the Ocean View restaurant wasn’t open due to the time of year so we went to the bar to eat. The mushroom soup was lovely but the Thai chicken salad was mediocre, battered cold chicken ( it didn’t say the chicken was going to be battered and really it would have been better without it but at the at least serve it hot) and the salad itself wasn’t that tasty. I expected more because everything else was so on point. Our meal in one of the village pubs was far better. A shame really. Everything else was fab!
This place is amazing! It’s luxurious without being over the top. The breakfast was outstanding, the best I’ve had yet! The staff were warm and friendly. The location is fabulous, perfect for a chilled break.

United StatesI think the lighting in the bathroom was horrid. They need to do a better job with that. Secondly, they need to think more about 'women' in getting ready in morning. No place to be comfortable blow drying hair, and makeup. It was off season so not alot of people on premise. I would think that in a case like that, the Hotel would provide free upgrades to guests. There were rooms right at the main inn and they were empty. I am sure those rooms are pricier but in my opinion, by giving a free upgrade it would entice me to come back.
We really enjoyed our stay. The 2 BR suite was great. We are not golfers but wanted to stay there because of its proximity to the to the places we were visiting. The room was nice. We had a problem with turning the heat and when asked the instructions they gave us did not work. But all in all was very good.

IrelandThe wet rooms in the spa were limited and separate male/female areas which was not what we expected or wanted as a couple.
The links cottages were so comfortable and presented to a high standard. We enjoyed the luxurious standard of the accommodation.
