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 KingdomI booked it as it had a spa in particular which was not available and one of the 2 hot tubs was not working and a specific time slot had to be booked which I was not aware of. When I stated this at check in the response was blasé well sorry about that …. Very disappointed with the lack of service at that point as I was not aware of spa policy having booked through booking.com
The Location is incredible and views are amazing with beautiful walks nearby. The food was also delicious and the staff were friendly - Dylan at breakfast was a great waiter.

IrelandSpace was tight. Small desk barely fitted laptop. Room adequate for a night or two. Perhaps a little small if staying longer. Lobby outside restaurant a little on cool side. Perhaps use of hot tub should be free for guests staying in hotel. Opening times of SPA were limited.
Small single room with comfortable double bed. Nice view over the sea. Tea and coffee facilities provided. Excellent breakfast. Lovely log fires in lobby and comfortable chairs and table to read and / or enjoy a drink by the fire.

IrelandWhile we got an upgrade I found the twin room a bit small for two adults sharing.
The staff wre the friendliest I have encountered for a long time. Everyone from reception through the restaurant staff, bar staff and laundry were so helpful. The location is great looking across the bay. The food was fantastic.

IrelandThe bathroom in the family room is quite small- no shelf to place items. A little chilly also. Our elderly mum was with us and struggled a bit with the steps- this may be helpful to be aware of when booking. However she made it and it didn’t take away from our enjoyment of an excellent night away!
I love that it had character. Even though it was a bit like a maze to navigate- this added to the character and charm of the hotel. The food was amazing. The staff were extremely professional, helpful and friendly. The spa was relaxing. The room was comfortable although a little cold.

IrelandThere was a wedding on at the same time we stayed & I know the staff were tired from it but the attention to detail just dropped because of it. Also this is an old hotel so it means a lot of carrying bags up and down stairs which was no issue for me but flagging for anyone who has mobility issues.
Beautiful location and nice base for touring the area. Breakfast was nice. Beds are comfortable and our family room was lovely and big. Great view from the room! Loads of towels, Voya toiletries in the bathroom which is a great brand and well stock tea and coffee station in the room.
