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...).

The hotel was in a great location, right on the promenade but easily accessible by bus from the city centre. Service was fantastic. Wonderful breakfast. I can’t say enough good things. Would recommend to anyone. Our first time to Ireland and we will be returning and will stay here again.

United KingdomThe windows were high so no real view. The hotel is located too far away from Galway's Latin Quarter and Galway city and transport is not good and the traffic very congested. It's a personal thing but we prefer to be nearer the centre. The hotel is great for a beach holiday.
The staff were very helpful and friendly. The beds were comfortable. Breakfast was excellent.

United KingdomWe had dinner in Pier 56, after ordering it took an hour for our mains to arrive, and only after prompting. Two of the mains were substandard and sent back. The other two were fine. This marred what was otherwise a fantastic experience
The room was great and we loved the comfort of the main lounges. The breakfast was great also.

IrelandPool facilities while nice were a little basic, Jacuzzi was nice if cold water, Entrance at back of hotel and up at the top of a hill, slightly tiring walking to the top particularly when returning from the city.
Food was excellent from the main bar, Staff were very friendly and obliging Late night bar and conservatory were inviting and appealing Breakfast was well staffed and nice food on offer, lots of variety. Lovely scenic views.

AustraliaIt would be nice to have robes in the room to go to the pool. We were not impressed by the food at the restaurant.

AustraliaThe fairground next door was a bit of an eyesore but the ferris wheel closed early each evening and noise was never an issue, day or night.
A perfect mix of modern decor and classic charm. The view to the Bay is wonderful and you can go for beach walks anytime of the day. Free onsite parking was helpful and the Hotel was a perfect as a base for exploring the Cliffs of Moher, Ennis and Limerick, etc.
