Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomThere was no view from our room,... Although I don't think there is a good view from any of the rooms.... the privacy curtains meant that didn't really matter.
The room was beautiful, two doubles, great for families, great bathroom, lovely shower. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The restaurant was excellent, everyone enjoyed their food.

IrelandMinor detail, very minor. It was a bit difficult to find our room but it was due to the quirkiness of the building which I loved and as already stated, it was only one night. We certainly didn’t get lost or anything but a few more arrows in the right direction wouldnt have gone a miss. Everything else was perfect. Sorry personally i thought the staircase was dull and dark but everywhere else i adored the decor
Beautifully decorated. Staff very friendly. It was only a very short stay so I didn’t get the time to check out the bar or shop or have dinner. Hence I couldn’t give totally top marks but I would recommend this hotel definitely and in fact I would like to go back again and explore more.

United KingdomSome more shelf space in the bathroom would be handy.
We stayed one night at the Harbour View Hotel in Carnlough and had a lovely experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming – especially to our dog Max, who was made to feel right at home. The hotel has a few rooms specifically set aside for guests with dogs, which is a real bonus for anyone travelling with pets. Our room was spotless – absolutely immaculate and very comfortable. It’s clear the team take great pride in their standards. Breakfast the next morning was beautiful – fresh, generous, and perfectly cooked. The eggs were just how I like them: nice and runny! A short but memorable stay. We’d happily return – and Max would too!
