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 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 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.).

Issacs is a lovely hotel that has charm and character. The staff are friendly. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The location is excellent. I didn't have time to eat at greenes restaurant but I will the next time. It has a great reputation.

United Kingdomroom decor could do with a little freshening up and it would have been nice to be able to open the windows a little to air the room.
Breakfast was good and staff in associated Cask Bar and restaurant were friendly, helpful and efficient. The location is outside the main Cork centre, but all the better for being just far enough away not to be too noisy.

United KingdomWhen we booked we were told it would be 4 single beds but a few days before we travelled we received an email saying we couldn’t have that apartment and we would have a double bed in one of the rooms. It was too late to make other arrangements and we still wanted that location so 2 people had to share double bed for 2 nights which definitely affected quality of sleep Also we were not told at all about the steep flights of stairs. One of our party has had knee replacement and the 60 plus steps to access the apartment was not good We had cash to pay but then when checking in was told we need to pay €250 euros as deposit. We were not able to pay the deposit on a card and had to find an extra €250. When you don’t want to take euros home (uk traveller) this was really inconvenient. Not enough coffee or milk in the apartment
The location was perfect. The apartment was fabulous

IrelandWindows didn't open because it was facing main road, hence noisy Aircon had to be on all night😕 Pillows very heavy and solid, a bit uncomfortable. No coffee maker in room and breakfast quite expensive.
Beautiful hotel, very large double room with super comfortable king size bed. Perfect location with many restaurants and local pubs in walking distance.,

United KingdomThe card readers on the door were very hit and miss and often took many tries to get entry to our room.
The property is absolutely stunning and in a great location being right in the mix of everything. The seating around the waterfall was a highlight and was very relaxing after a long day sightseeing. The staff were really helpful and the room was also absolutely stunning. Next door there is the most amazing restaurant/bar that serves top class food and drink.
