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.).

IrelandBooked twin room with river view in advance but was moved on arrival to room at back of hotel with view of car park. Disappointing with no reduction in room rate for inconvenience. Didn't spoil stay too much and handled well by staff.
Great location. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice hotel.

Australiathe restaurant food was very good. the hotel itself is tied, they need to spend some money on it, it was busy all the home so it’s not like they don’t make enough to fix. the gym and pool is public which is strange and the gym has 🦕 pieces of gym equipment in it!

IrelandBrasserie had signs on water view tables ‘Reserved at 7.30pm’ All other tables were occupied. We requested at 6.30 could we eat there and we’d vacate table by 7.30. This was facilitated and we didn’t take a starter and didn’t delay over dinner in order to be finished on time. By 7.30 no one had come for any of the low couch tables or the tables by the wall. The staff then removed the signs. We had a feeling from the start that the signs were put up to encourage customers to sit at tables where it could be seen from foyer that the brasserie had customers. Think what you may! The brasserie has a tap at bar for 0% Draft Guinness but none was available. The following day my husband ordered 0%Draft Heineken. Later in afternoon as the bar started to get busy he was told at 4.00pm there was no draft but 0% bottle Heineken which was more expensive. Was this because of busy times it’s quicker to sell bottles and being dearer gain larger profits?

IrelandThe room was cold on arrival. noise from traffic could be clearly heard as if the traffic was in the room. I think the swimming pool was a bit tricky as the steps of the pool were built into the wall of the pool and you have to walk in backwards and hold on to the bars tightly. Not great for me as I had an injured knee. One of the customers in the pool had to explain where the steps were. The person that was at the desk should have explained this. I wasn’t asked if I had been there previously and I did go to the pool area using a walking stick so in my opinion that was disappointing.
Excellent Location. Great variety for Breakfast.
