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.).

IrelandLifts smell really bad. The restaurant isn’t great. We had dinner there the first night, chicken wings were shop bought frozen wings. Beef burger was very average and not a whole lot of taste. Tiny tiny whiskey shot for a full price, it was barely 20ml. Bathroom was okay but very claustrophobic, feels like a tiny time capsule / train bathroom.
Location is great. Staff is friendly and welcoming. It was clean enough. Bed was comfortable.

United StatesLobby and restrooms were dirty when we arrived on Monday morning. Room was clean, but bathroom door didn't open easily. So, we were moved to another room.
The view of the harbor was great! Room & beds were comfortable. Bathroom had good counter space and shower. They stored our luggage until check-in time.

United KingdomThere were no sockets near the bed, the only sockets were at the opposite side of the room. The bathroom solution is questionable - the bathroom cabin seems out of place and takes a quarter of the room.
Location is good, staff is friendly. Room had a strong heater.

United KingdomA woman was hanging about the entrance to the hotel & got in the lift with us. She was badly under the influence of something as she was slurring her words. When we returned 5 hours later, she was still hanging about.Other guests were looking at her also. It's not a good look for the hotel, with her hanging about outside with people smoking with her. She seemed to know people in the hotel. The guy on the desk was good, but he didn't see her going into the lift as he was with other customers checking them in. It has put me off booking again & we stay at Ibis hotels all over. Just enjoyed a week in Geneva Ibis.

United KingdomWhile comfortable, rooms were basic and as a “picky” person, little things bugged me - toilet had to be double flushed to clear, sink didn’t drain particularly well, dirt buildup along crease of wet wall to floor within shower.. other guests in our group (15 in total) were satisfied so it could just be my luck and fussiness. Didn’t put a dampener on my stay, just slightly inconvenient.
