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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

IrelandThe hotel is situated on a main street so it was very noisy. There was a man with a leaf blower at 8am in the morning and the night before you had the noise from the pubs so not the place for a quiet stay.
The staff were lovely and always seems very busy. The room was lovely. We ate there when we arrived and the food was lovely. The breakfast the next morning was lovely too.

United KingdomI’m not a fan of fabric shower curtains, even if they are clean and the cold water pressure was very poor. We had practically none when trying to brush teeth. These are minor gripes that wouldn’t put me off booking again.
Great location, one side overlooks the Main Street, the other overlooks the beautiful estuary. Staff were all lovely, room was very comfortable and breakfast was delicious. We would definitely stay again.

FranceThe bedding was of poor quality and need to be improved, especially the single bed which had a very sagging matress and an almost briken box-spring.
Superb location, and very convenient located above the pub which offers good quality food. The staff was super friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was tasty and generous. Only downside was the bedding, especially the single bed which had a very sagging matress and box-spring.

AustraliaThe bathroom is very dated with a wobbly rail to hold onto when climbing in the bath. One thing I can’t stand is a shower curtain, I don’t know why I seem to always wear it and spend more time unpeeling myself than washing. Parking is street parking and hard to get, but once you find a spot it cost €1.80 from 4pm until 11.30am.
There is no lift but luckily we were given a room on the 1st floor and was helped upstairs by 2 staff. The room was nice with a double and a single so we both slept well. Not the most comfortable mattress but not the worst. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of the main Street. The view from the breakfast room is stunning, as is the breakfast all cooked to order.
