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...).

IrelandIt’s a little tired in parts. The gym and other areas could do with updating and simple perks that you would expect from a large hotel such as Coffee facilities in the room are not available.
It has everything you could want from a beach side hotel, pool is great and the spa is very reasonably priced.

United Kingdom-The pools are not heated and close at 7pm -You only get 1 bottle of complimentary water for entire stay. - The gym opening times are late 9am-7pm, so if you want to use the gym before breakfast finishes you have to work out & shower all within 1 hour to make it before breakfast closes. - breakfast finishes too early at 10am (even on weekends) - the casino vibe isn’t great! Slots are on ground floor and table in lower floor -no toys allowed in pools -bar staff don’t give ice, so have to order ice from room service then pay £3 service charge. Cheaper to buy a bag of ice from supermarket
The hotel looks good, is clean, has good facilities has well kept grounds and a resident parrot. -Great locations for the beaches (very clean beaches) -close to restaurants -Nice outside terrace and lounging areas. -The gym is a little small, no mats. -Good access to the beach. -Breakfast was delicious. -The WI-FI was good -Loved the sea view room -room was spacious, clean and had all the trimmings (Flat screen tv, mini bar, robes, slippers, blankets, extra pillows, safe, desk, balcony furniture, bidet, table & chairs, connecting rooms) -I like the fact there was a safety cord in the shower The shower pressure was amazing

United KingdomNot really dog friendly as dogs not allowed in public areas.We appreciate that dogs are not allowed in the dining room but we could not sit and have a drink with our friends in the bar / reception lounge with our dog.We wouldn’t have booked if this had been explained more clearly and not just in the small print.It was even more annoying that we had to upgrade our room and pay extra for the dog in order to take her with us! She is a small well behaved dog and no problem at all.

The room is Superb. Very big and spacious and a Balcony. Family room with extra hall and 2 toilets. It is like a Junior suite. All of my family members loves the room. Relax and balcony with sea breeze was enjoyable. The room is facing the beach and sea with an awesome view! Breakfast was good with a series of varieties selection. Yummy.

DenmarkThe staff were not willing to help much. We ended up in an argument with them, because we would like to watch a football match. However they wouldn't cooperate to help us and kept saying that it was not possible. Then we went to the hotel on the other side of the street, and they helped us without any issues. Instead of trying to help us, they treated us like children and didn't listen.
Breakfast was good.

United KingdomCould have been warmer in lounge A bit of generator noise at night, probably why there's instant hot water
Amazing breakfast. Everything you could want. Eggs cooked to order. Staff very nice but a bit eager to clear the table before you're finished. So when you get up to get a drink, your food might have been whisked away Free upgrade to beautiful sea view. Nice size balcony. Huge bed. Instant hot water. Comfortable settees in lounge, with bar. Staff friendly and helpful Casino :- similar to the airport getting in cos have to place photo id on scanner. We needed help. Takes a while to get help. Upstairs, you put money in machines and credit note comes out which you take to another machine to get cash back. Downstairs is a blackjack table. 10 euros for 1 go. There's also a roulette table which is a bit cheaper. Not so friendly in the casino
