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...).

IrelandI couldn't rhink of any negative points
A little gem of a hotel , decor is an exceptional standard . A mix of old and new feel to it that work perfectly together. The bathroom was the highlight for me , pure luxury ! It's hard to believe it's only open 8 weeks . Great location bang in the middle of Dungarvan. It's really handy to go exploring, but you don't experience the noise that you would expect for being so central . The continental breakfast was plentiful, and the healthy shot of the day was a great idea . The owners are very much visible getting stuck in and making sure all guests are enjoying their Hatmaker experience. All the staff are very helpful and efficient with a big smile and greeting for everyone. Best wishes and continued success to all at The Hatmaker for creating such a haven in a beautiful part of the country.

United KingdomNothing not to dislike, one small observation is the bed linen is very heavy for the hot summer nights we are enjoying.
Newly opened, apparently only operational for 5 week, this boutique hotel has been decorated to the highest standards and is very conveniently located just off the main square. Continental breakfast of the highest equality. Only passing through and staying one night but wished stat was longer.

IrelandTo be completely honest, there was nothing we disliked about The Hatmaker. I was genuinely delighted with every aspect of our stay. The hotel is beautifully designed and very comfortable and the level of service was outstanding. The staff truly bent over backwards to ensure we had everything we needed and the presence of the two owners on site added a real sense of authenticity and care. Their hands-on approach and personal attention to guests made the experience feel warm and genuine in a way that larger hotels often lack
What I particularly liked about The Hatmaker Hotel was the unique blend of style, comfort and hospitality it offers right in the heart of Dungarvan. This beautiful boutique hotel is a much-needed addition to the town, which I know well and its presence has elevated the local hospitality scene. The interiors are exquisitely decorated with an eclectic style that combines a slightly vintage charm with a modern twist, creating an expensive feel that remains warm and inviting. The beds are of a very high quality and are extremely comfortable, ensuring a restful stay. With the town quite literally on your doorstep, the location is unbeatable for exploring all that Dungarvan has to offer. No need for Uber here! The warm Irish hospitality is alive and well at this hotel, thanks to the owners, Rebecca and David Burke, who are so friendly yet entirely professional, contributing greatly to the overall experience. Staff members Aoibheann and Amy were a true delight and went above and beyond in helping my elderly mum choose from the breakfast menu with great patience and genuine care that was both touching and deeply appreciated.

Location is excellent. Breakfast was tasty and well presented. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. It was great to be able to store our bikes overnight on the premises. The room was beautiful and very comfortable. Check out time of 12 is very generous.
