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 would have liked to have been informed that you needed a swimming hat to go in the swimming pool. We have hats so could have taken our own and saved buying new ones at £3 each. Check out was 12, so very convenient. The food in the evening dining room was a good standard. The hotel is very corporate though!
The breakfast was very good. It was buffet style, so you just picked up what you wanted.

AustraliaWhen we tried to order food we were told it was too late and that we could only order room service (totally fine). We tried calling through and the front desk picked up. Said they had to chase room service and they would get back to us asap. After almost half an hour we recieved the call to order our food. We are thankful we eventually got some food, but it took a while.
Very friendly staff both the check in person and bar staff. We arrived quite late and we absolutely buggered from a long day driving. We recieved some drink vouchers and breakfast. Which were amazing and much appreciated!

IrelandOur bathroom had a strange musty smell. The shower door leaked. There was mould on the net curtains at the window. We got stuck in the lift on our last morning, only for about 5 mins but still not a nice experience! The staff in fairness were apologetic and acted on it as soon as we reported it.
Good location nice and quiet but close to Cork city. Staff very friendly and accommodating especially in the brasserie with our toddler. Our toddler was given a little welcome pack with stickers and crayons that he enjoyed playing with. Breakfast buffet wasn’t extensive but good. Pool is lovely with facilities well kept. We had requested a quiet room which was fulfilled.

IrelandThere was no earbuds as part of the amenities in the bathroom, we had to ask at reception. There was only a few accessible channels on the television. The room was extremely warm, even with all the windows open and with the fan on max power.
The breakfast was lovely, the room was spacious and tidy. All of the staff were very friendly and went above and answered any questions we had.

AustraliaDinner in the Brasserie - we waited quite a while to be shown to a table upon arrival. We didn’t have a booking but there were plenty of empty tables. We felt as though we were a bit of an inconvenience to the young lady seating us to be honest. There were long delays for drinks, in fact we had to chase up our drinks order twice before it was delivered to our table. The same for table water. We only just received our first drinks moments before the meal arrived. That said, both of our meals were absolutely delicious and served within a reasonable time. It’s a shame the bar service was not up to par on this occasion.
Location is a little out of town, one of the reasons we chose to book here. The room it’s was large, clean and well appointed. The bed and pillows were lovely and comfortable. Plenty of parking available. There is a gym, pool and spa on-site but we didn’t use.

TurkeyIt was not easy to use the shower head. When my son was taking a shower, the hose was stuck since it is fixed. When we move the hose down, it was stuck, we had to adjust it many times. Apart from this, our room was not prepared on time, we had to wait for check-in.
Swimming pool was clean. Rooms were big and comfortable. Location is good for families, so close to Airtastic and many other shops. Breakfast is tasty and proper for all different cultures. The people working at the restaurant were so friendly. We had good time with my 7 year old son.

United KingdomFixtures and fittings were tired. We had a big stain on our carpet obviously from a leak. The room was large and lovely but was obviously far more luxurious in the past. Needs some love. No door on the cupboard with ironing board etc. dishes left outside our room from a previous guest when we arrived.
The hydro pool,sauna and steam were wonderful. The bed was large and very comfy and staff were friendly and helpful. The scent in the reception was very pleasing and the breakfast selection was fantastic.
