How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

With the promotion of the products they use for liquid soap and shampoo, they should have had conditioner and body lotion in the same line.
Fabulous staff at reception and at breakfast. Breakfast was outstanding. Great vision for the hotel property. Ability to host weddings, concerts and events. Wowed by the Doolin bread they gave us aunt checkout. The free glass of beer was appreciated. And nice touch with the brownie in the room. Comfortable, spacious rooms. Free convenient parking on site.

Leaving after one night's stay was the only thing I regretted. Next time I'll stay longer.
This is an amazingly beautiful location, a place no one should miss. Hotel Doolin's suites are fresh, roomy and perfectly apportioned with everything needed for a short or longer stay. The pub with nightly live music and warm hospitality is a minute's walk away and a delicious, locally sourced breakfast is provided with the room.

The WiFi was down in our unit while we were there for a one-day stay. We were offered a move to another unit - which was thoughtful. In the morning we briefly did not have water as the pump tripped and had to be reset. These things were minor inconveniences. The suites are separated from the hotel. Just make sure everything works! We were overall happy with our stay.
The hotel is located in a rural area near the Cliffs of Moher and is connected with a pub which hosts traditional Irish music with talented local musicians. The hotel is part of a row of buildings interconnected such that one can walk inside to a casual restaurant, a pizza restaurant (wood fired oven) and a pub with pub food and the aforementioned entertainment in the evenings. An ample breakfast is served in the pub. The place is imbued with rustic charm and the staff (Rebecca and Harsh) were friendly and helpful. We stayed in one of the private suites and were comfortable. Each suite has its own parking space out front.

Nothing to mention!
Hotel was very nice and clean. Super friendly and accomodating staff. Breakfast was included and it was a lovely surprise, as you got an individual continental serving (which was so cute!) and then could order hot food off the menu. Attached bar was good, and I got 2 tickets for a free Doolin lager upon arrival, which was a nice touch. Bathroom was new and nice size. And they gave a me half a loaf of home made brown bread when I left. Conveniently located. Overall just a lovely stay.

The dinner experience could have been better and the organic wines on tap were not nice and quite acidic. Would put me off having dinner here again. If you like wine it’s a problem.
Liked the suites, clean, modern, quite and plenty of room. The fireplace was a nice touch.
