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.).

United KingdomAs said previously I would have preferred a front facing rooms looking looking on to O Connell street.
Breakfast, staff and location were all excellent.. I would recommend this stay at the price charged. I would’ve liked to have stayed in one of the front facing rooms looking on to O Connell street. I will be booking this hotel again if the price is the same in the future.. I’ve stayed in quite a few hotels in Dublin now and this has been my favourite. Thanks

United KingdomGeneral decor in upper floors is bland, cold and unwelcoming. Extortionate price for a mediocre hotel that used to be very good but which is now only Fair. Homeless and beggars on O'Connell Street. Not much the hotel staff can do about this, but the hotel chain maybe can.....? Room was nice but I had requested a Twin Room. Not available at check-in so hotel offered to make up the sofa bed. 2 nights on a sofa bed cost me €700 which is a RIP OFF
Ground floor, reception, bar and restaurant all very good. Staff friendly and plentiful in numbers. Breakfast was very good.

United KingdomThe packed breakfast that the Hotel provided was poor. The standard buffet breakfast was superb, but the small muffin a granola bar ,apple, and small fruit drink was a poor substitute for a 6.45am start for a 12 hour bus tour.
A good central location, a really good refurb, all the amenities that you could ask for, and really friendly staff.

United KingdomThe plastic floor tiles in the bedroom. I know they are practical and easy to clean but not very cosy underfoot.
We appreciated the room upgrade for my birthday. Staff were all friendly particularly those who had a welcoming smile at breakfast. Breakfast was delicious and the food in general, whilst not Michelin star, was very good and good value for money.

United Kingdomd.l. Queen room had everything we needed, well equiped, nice decor but all cleverly sqeezed into a compact room. If we went again we would look for a room with a bit more space.
Good standards, very efficient staff. Nice mix of age groups, staff and guests. Riu also employed some Spanish people which was good for guests from Spain who might favour the brand.
