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.).

IrelandRoom 205 had a problem with sound on our TV. Every time we switch on TV, voices was not working. We had to plug out and cable on the back. The first time this happened, we rang reception for help. Respond was quick. the person who came over knew exactly knew what the issue was. After that, I wasn't bothering to ring them again just done my self. As this was ongoing problem before we checked in we shouldn't be allocated in that room.
Ladies at reception on check-in were very friendly. We had a long conversation about the hotel and our trip.

IrelandYou had to specify / reserve a time for breakfast. Normally I prefer to go for breakfast when I'm ready. The bar was shut early and guest were moved out to the reception area
The check in was easy. The rooms were large and very clean. The beds were very comfortable. Facilities included hair dryer, safe, tea & coffee, TV and an iron. There is a bus service which passes the front of the hotel to the city centre, which is 24 hours

IrelandNothing to do with the staff or the facilities; but there was a wedding going on the first night we stayed and they were extremely loud into the early hours of the morning while we were trying to sleep. The second night stay; there was a large group of men going out late at night and were also screaming and shouting. But that’s not the hotels fault but something that dampened the enjoyment of the stay!
The room was very cosy. We have stayed here several times and we always have a lovely room and a decent view! The staff are always very friendly and extremely outgoing. Our room was very clean and was a pleasure to stay in.

IrelandCooked breakfast buffet was disappointing. Bacon and eggs were way overcooked. Bacon was brown and hard. Some pillows need replacing as were very flat.
All staff were lovely. Rooms have been redecorated beautifully since our last stay. Lovely to have a separate shower. Food in the bar was delicious.

IrelandThe fan in our room never turned off so was quiet loud and the bed was very creaky. We were in room 110 and paid for the upgrade and werent very impressed with the value for money. When we went in the throw cushion on the bed had crumbs on it. Couldnt warrant paying for a starter has they were very overpriced
The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Couldn't fault them. Food was nice.

United KingdomRoom heating controls and the lack of heating in the bathroom was quite concerning, it made for the shower and bath to become exceptionally cold and without adequate ventilation meant the room was unnecessarily steamy
Room was very comfortable and having the use of the spa and gym facilities without any additional cost was a big benefit in the overall stay
