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...).

We liked the location, which is near the town, where you can walk in just 10 minutes. It is great, if you want to do a Ring of Kerry. Mary is really nice host. She prepared great breakfast and even consider my food allergies. She put some extra effort to offer us a nice experience and make our stay felt like home. Clean and comfortable room with some space to put your belongings and it is suitable for longer stay. You have everything you need. In a common place you also have a mini fridge and microwave. There is also a coffee machine for a coffee in the afternoon. You also have a kettle inside a room and you can prepare tea or coffee there as well. You have Wifi in a room and little TV in a rainy afternoon or to check some things. We stayed for 3 nights and we could easily stay more. So happy to stay there.

IrelandI booked Mary's Ashfield B&B for our Croatian friends for a two night stay after reading all the nice reviews.. They absolutely enjoyed their stay. The area is very peaceful, yet only a few minute pleasant walk to Kenmare town centre. The view around the property is beautiful. They adored the omelette Mary cooked for them, they loved the room they stayed in. They specifically asked me to write this review and say a big thank you to Mary for her kind hospitality.

The room was spacious, very clean , with a comfy bed and a powerful shower. It is in a quiet location and yet only about a ten minute walk into town. Plenty of space to park your car. The breakfast was excellent, freshly cooked using good quality food. Plenty of choice of cereals and fruits as well. Everything was perfect.
