Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

LuxembourgThat we only stayed 2 nights!
This property is truly lovely, and the host and staff made it even more so. The attention to detail is evident everywhere, from the great decor and fresh flowers to the pleasant aroma that fills the air. It feels as if the entire place was taken straight out of a magazine or a movie. The room was spacious and comfortable. It included a small living area with a TV, sofa, and a coffee and tea station. The bed and pillows were large and exceptionally comfortable. A nice and spacious bathroom was also a plus. Throughout our stay, David and Inés were incredibly kind, caring, and welcoming, making every interaction a genuinely warm and pleasant experience. Ah! You can also walk to the center of Clonaklity and enjoy great food and drinks without the need to take the car. Massive upsell too! Thank you and hope to stay with you again, sooner than later.

United KingdomThe room was large and had an attached lounge with a balcony. The breakfast was amazing and the host was really friendly and helpful. The house is a short walk into the town allowing us to have an alcoholic drink at the amazing pubs in Clonakilty.

IrelandAn Absolutely Wonderful Stay – A True Hidden Gem! I had the most amazing experience staying at this charming, homey hotel. From the moment I arrived, I felt incredibly welcomed – it truly felt like a home away from home. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and extremely comfortable. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and I could tell a lot of care went into creating a peaceful and cozy atmosphere. It was the perfect place to relax after a long day. And the breakfast – wow! It was absolutely delicious, homemade, and offered a variety of fresh, local options. Every morning felt like a treat, and I looked forward to it as much as the rest of the stay. I can’t recommend this place highly enough. If you’re looking for a warm, personal, and unforgettable stay, this is the place. I’ll definitely be coming back!
