Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Dinner in bar was over-priced at €36 for pan fried hake. Carrots and broccoli were raw. Plastic flowers on the tables despite abundant wildflowers in every hedgerow.
Reception and dining room staff were lovely. Hotel is very clean.

Hotel doesn't have it's own carpark. Not a big deal as you can use the public one across the road however if that's full I'm not too sure where you go.
Lovely location, nice room & breakfast was great.

Shower was over a bath which was a little disappointing. The room was excessively hot all night. But the breakfast was excellent, although not included in the price.
Room was lovely with a great view over the sea.

When we arrived our room wasn’t ready and the lady on reception wasn’t in the slightest bit apologetic. She just flippantly told us accommodation was busy. She left for the day shortly afterwards and her replacement was much more pleasant to deal with. The bar and restaurant area are quite cold and sterile and weren’t very inviting. We didn’t use these facilities at all.
Great location in the middle of Schull. Rooms are very clean, bright and spacious. We didn’t book a sea view room but there was still a nice view of the hills behind the hotel. Accommodation staff were lovely and friendly.

One small cover missing off toilet flush panel on wall but just cosmetic as everything worked perfectly. No recycling bin in room for paper or plastic. Fan noise vaguely in the background at times from somewhere else in buildi g or neighbouring building.
Warm welcome at friendly, efficient check in. Very spacious room with really comfortable bed and goid linen. Yummy fresh baked chocolate cookies beside coffee maker with good range of teas and coffees. Safe in large wardrobe as well as iron and board. Fantastic water pressure and large dispensers for toiletries (and shower caps etc.) Pool was lovely and breakfast was good value. Lovely location overlooking Schull Harbour and close to walk to and from shops and restaurants. Beside carpark. Will definitely stay here again.
