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 buffet breakfast as a vegetarian I did find it limited and could do with being modernised an give vegetarians more options than just beans, eggs an mushrooms
We paid for an upgraded room and it was lovely and modern and clean. We had dinner in the bar, and the food was nice, the hotel is in the middle of being renovated We did go to a friends room and it was one of the older rooms and we definitely found the extra money for the upgrade was worth it. Nice friendly hotel. We would visit again

DenmarkProbably the “ Floor Numbers Confusion “ there’s only 3 stories but 6 floors ??? Very very “Irish “ 🤣😂😅👍☘️🥰🇮🇪🎶 equals a lot of stairs here and there ⚠️ But it’s still a wonderful place to stay 👍👍👍👍
The sheer beauty of the entrance and the immediate ambiance of a quality “ Irish ☘️ Hotel “ 👏👏👏🇮🇪 BUT there is a problem and that is the stairs everywhere ‼️‼️ narrow old fashioned staircases are a huge letdown as they are almost impossible to ignore 😳 and it’s very obvious that they have just gone through a huge redevelopment which has left some confusion amongst the guests . For example, we were on the 5th. Floor which meant taking the elevator to the 6 th. imaginary floor then down a lot of narrow stairs to get to the 5th. Floor 🤣😂😅 funny now but not funny then ?? We got the room changed to the 6th. ?? and proceeded to enjoy this beautiful hotel and it’s fabulous decor and incredible ambiance and fantastic staff who were sooo understanding and helpful 🥰🥰 ( a lot of “ands” 😂🤣)

IrelandModern bar staff can’t seem to multitask. An acknowledgement though that they see you and will be taking my order in a minute would be good. The blind stare perfected by all of the bar staff . Would hate to see it if the bar was busy . One of the receptionist was the same . First encounter we put down to her being at the end of a long shift maybe but she was as grumpy the following morning
Beds very comfortable and the hotel was very clean and comfortable .
