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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

IrelandThere was a wierd smell upstairs on way to bedrooms, smelled like swerage. Once you were in your room couldn't smell it. Maybe it was just an issue on the paricular night we stayed.
The seaview was amazing and so relaxing. The staff were all so friendly, especially the bar staff.

IrelandThe bedroom/ shower unit was v Small. The bed was too small, it was up against the wall so you only could use One side of the bed., god help you if you had two people staying in the bedroom. .my feet were over the end of the bed , and I had to curl up to try to fall asleep. The shower unit was way too small - I had to go into it sideways to go take a shower , too tight , There was a draft/ cold air in the room all night .. The walls were paper thin - you could hear next door talking.. As a business person who travels a lot ,overall, it was way too much money to pay for what I got.
The location was perfect, as I travel a lot with work it was the perfect location between offices.. the views were beautiful.

United KingdomSome improvement could be made by cleaning crew-room clean but simple things like cleaning remote or replacing used stationary would make huge difference. Breakfast crew were very slow even after being asked to take order waited 15-20 mins for it to be taken (over 40mins waiting in total before order taken)
Location, location, location. Stunning views and walks around the hotel. So nice to sit on the patio with a drink and listen to the waves. Cliff walks are stunning. Hotel nicely decorated and great value for money. Reception staff lovely. Dinnner was good and amazing to sit at window and watch out at views.

IrelandMenu was ok but could do with improvement. I thought it was quite expensive for what I got and didn't think my meal was great. Maybe I just got unlucky with my choice.
as a solo traveller I was very happy to be upgraded to a lovely room when I arrived last week! I used to live in this area and now live in Kerry, so I come back now and again to visit friends. I will definitely used the Shoreline hotel again as its convenient, friendly and right beside the sea for daily swims!

IrelandBathroom in the room hadn’t been renovated like the rest of the room so was very dated old shower that soaked the place even with curtain pulled. We also go breakfast included and the menu was quite poor 3/4 options and not many vegetarian options or not great options on kids menu we where disappointed probably wouldn’t book breakfast if we stay again definitely not worth it.
The room was really nice we had a view of the sea
