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...).

United KingdomThe breakfast was fairly basic. There was a full irish breakfast available, serve yourself and cereals etc, but was a little over cooked and greasy. It was just ok.
Very friendly staff, and a nice bar near reception. It was very near the port (its a small island but still it's close) and the rooms had plenty of space.

IrelandThe breakfast was not good, cold and quite tasteless. The balcony doors don't lock so I didn't feel completely safe, while the room doors are difficult to open.

IrelandThe rooms were clean and cozy, the staff friendly and the food was quite frankly the best I've had in Ireland in my 5 years of being here. Long story short, it's worth the visit. The views around the hotel are a sight to behold as well.

IrelandBreakfast a bit basic. Not much fruit - but I understand logistics of that when located on an Island
Thank to Chloe, Steven and all the staff for a great time. We had two family dinners of over 20 people on two evenings when there - and the food and service was superb. Look forward to going back again. Great views from out front bedrooms.

United States of AmericaThe balcony is shared with a room nextdoor, and it’s quite a small balcony, so it felt a bit weird that someone could be on the balcony by our glass door when we were in our room. That’s honestly the only thing we didn’t love about the property.
The view was incredible, and the common room is a wonderful place to spend time overlooking the bay. Our room was very comfortable, the shower was excellent, and our balcony was very nice. The staff were exceptional! Breakfast is hot, served buffet style, and the coffee is good.

GermanyThe house is bigger and has more rooms than I expected. The furniture in our room was a little worn. Room badly sound-proofed, I could hear people in the hall. Many of the rooms don't face the sea, we didn't have a nice view at all. In our room one could hear a constant noise from a generator or some ventilation system. At breakfast the bowls for cereal appeared clean at first glance but when touching the inside they were dirty (like residue from dried yoghurt or something).
Good location. Very friendly and helpful staff. Transport from and to the pier. Nice and clean bathroom. Good breakfast, although the fruit was fizzy (but that might be due to transport/storage on dry ice)
