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.).

Location beside motorway for easy access to our event we were attending and a 15 minute drive to city centre. Staff were extremely friendly and courteous even though there was a very big event simultaneously as our stay. Swimming pool was great fun. Depth of 4ft4 perfect for our son.

AustraliaNo where did it state Breakfast wasn't included. On Booking.com website, it states child friendly buffet & breakfast in bed as offerings- neither of these state it costs an additional charge. Along with information paper you receive on arrival- this gives information around timings of Breakfast etc. Does not state a cost anywhere. We planned our day around having breakfast at hotel before a long day of travel, once getting to breakfast, only then we are told it's €15 per person, as we had planned we paid this, pancakes were stale, bacon was covered in white "gunk" very average overall - along with not being child friendly at all. Think in future your information needs to be corrected around this on Booking.com. as well as in house on the information you receive.we also had our 2 year old with us, who was given a cot for sleeping- no problem with this, but we weren't supplied bedding for the cot. Overall ruined a good experience the morning of checking out.
Lovely accommodation and facilities.

IrelandMy husband went to the spa area and asked for a robes and slippers like all other guest were wearing and was told he should have brought towels from his room. This is really unacceptable another staff member eventually gave him both robe and slippers that he was told weren't available by another staff member.
Staff are very friendly at the reception area.

IrelandPillows were a bit high. Air con system quite noisy but they seem to turn it off late at night so no noise issues at that time.
Excellent value, especially for families. The kids buffet is particularly good value. Very comfortable stay. Great choice for breakfast. The pool is great with lots of hydrotherapy features. Appreciate their environmental campaign to reduce towel changes (guests can opt in and receive a 5€ voucher - nice token).

IrelandThe facilities in the swimming pool were not working. The shampoo holder in the pool shower was hanging off the wall. The coffee machine in the bedroom didn’t work because it needed descaling.
The staff at reception and restaurant were lovely. The bed was comfortable and the place was very clean. The food at breakfast and dinner was lovely too. It’s in between Cobh and Cork City, it’s a good location with plenty of parking.

IrelandWe have been staying at this hotel regularly for the past seven years and never have a single complaint. However, our stay on this occasion was a little disappointing. We had dinner on site the first night. The main course was fine, but the desert was not. The brownie was far too sweet, and staff were made aware of this. Nonetheless, we were still charged for it in full! The TV in the room normally has an abundance of channels (including Film 4, which we always make use of), but this time, it was very limited. Some channels (aforementioned) were removed and replaced with a dozen radio channels instead. That made absolutely no sense to us. Also, the doorway leading out to the balcony was extremely low, and we both hit our heads off it! One of the many reasons we revere the Radison Blu above every other hotel we have stayed in is because we are never rushed out of the room on the day of departure. We have always been able to stay in the room past 12:30, but this time, we were reminded to check out. Considering our loyal custom 2/3 times annually over the past seven years, all of these factors are disappointing. We will always feel at home here, but this stay changed our perspective a little.
As always, the Radison Blu was spotless, and the room was spacious. We appreciate having a room with a balcony/terrace. The dinner was nice, and breakfast had plenty of options. The staff were obliging and pleasant as always.

IrelandThe staff in the leisure facility were quite unpleasant. 3 young individuals behind the desk, one male two female. Laughing and sniggering and very sharp when spoken to. Put us off using it on the second day. Had this same experience with pool staff on a previous stay. Also the pool was quite cold.
