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...).

BelgiumAlready third stay at this hotel. I could check in at 5AM during a weekend and switch the day I could have access to the breakfast. That added so much comfort to my stay. The staff members are just great! They are all very competent and reliable. As always the room was very comfortable, clean and the hotel is well located. Certainly not my last stay :)

United States of AmericaIt was in a noisy part of town and heard all of the sounds of cars and people on the street as well as some of our neighbors in other rooms talking and taking showers. It little expensive.
I liked the atmosphere and the live Irish music and Irish cuisine. The bed was comfortable. We did receive a take away bag since we had to leave early for our flight.

IrelandMenus very limited - more choice please. Chaotic breakfast service upstairs, not particularly busy but staff were like headless chickens. In the end, it became “self service” for us which wasn’t an issue on this occasion as we were not pushed for time.

AustraliaThe shower was luke warm at best and even though I asked about it and apparently maintenance went up, it didn’t get better. It took about 10 minutes to run the water just to get it to luke warm. I think the carpets need a deep clean.
Comfy bed. Staff friendly and responsive. Serviced daily. Good position. Restaurants good. Breakfast good.

United States of AmericaThe limited parking and the fact that it wasn't included was a let down.
Afternoon tea at the Old Music Shop was excellent, as was our breakfast at The Vaults. The staff was friendly and helpful at the front desk as well as in the restaurants. It's pretty centrally located. Grafton Street was an easy walk from the hotel.

United KingdomNothing to dislike
Having stayed at The Caste Hotel last year it was my number one choice for this year. Nice and close to the center but not too close, friendly and welcoming staff, fine food, and a very comfortable room. Also appreciated being able to keep the same room when we had to book an extra night due to our flights back home being cancelled due to the weather, also appreciated the breakfast bags as we had to leave too early for the hotel breakfast the next day. Once again I’ve no idea If I’ll get to Dublin again but if I do The Castle Hotel will be my first choice and I will also be recommending the hotel to any of my friends travelling to Dublin

It was conveniently located, with a decent breakfast open early enough (and you could get a to-go meal and coffee very early if necessary), and a nice restaurant for dinner and music.
