Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustraliaAccessible room a bit small, not a lot of room to move around. One half of our group got little to no sleep due to noisy guests in the room next door, and when one came out to reception in the early hours of the morning to complain there were no staff at the desk.
Location was good. Breakfast was good.

United States of AmericaWe had a first floor room and needed the window open for fresh air and a cool breeze given hot weather. People walking through the parking lot we’re looking into our room. We had to almost completely close the blinds for privacy but then lost the benefit of the open window. Eventually we closed up the window and just used the fan but were a bit warm during the night
Convenient and reasonably priced. Clean

IrelandI do not like the bathtub in bedroom trend, so while the rooms are lovely, that's not for me. I was catching a ferry on my day of departure. Now, the Balmoral is not at fault, but the drive to the harbour is a bit stressful, which is why I have given a lower mark for location.
The room was a surprise. It was very spacious with a separate seating area. It was like a suite rather than just a room. Dinner was tasty, and the service was spot on. I asked for adjustments to both the main and the dessert, and they came as ordered. There was a good choice of hot breakfast dishes, freshly prepared, which is so much nicer than the usual lukewarm buffet.

IrelandLocation ok. Breakfast room lacked character. Staff speaking across each other . Had an issue with my food which was handled by a fabulous lady in the restaurant on the night of my arrival. I would return due to her efforts. The Older staff were sympathetic however this young lady called to my room to apologise. Excellent member of staff. The security gentleman was very attentive as was the receptionist who met me on arrival.
