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.).

Verified reviewSea view. Breakfast. Big room.
Noise from the street. Patrons exiting the bar after midnight kept us awake. Noise again at 6am when a van was unloading.

Verified reviewWe were a group of nine staying for a work event, and the hotel was very accommodating with the various room changes and guest arrangements we needed. They also kindly stored our luggage for a late check-in, which we really appreciated. We had originally booked dinner for 7pm, but at 6:30pm asked if it would be possible to move it to 7:30pm. The staff suggested dining at the new fish restaurant, Alaria, instead—and we’re so glad we did. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was excellent. A special mention to Giuseppe, who was extremely patient and helpful in explaining the menu to such a large group. Breakfast the next morning was fantastic, with plenty of choice and great quality. The Shull Harbour Hotel itself is in a brilliant location, just a short walk to local bars and the pier. I would highly recommend both the hotel and Alaria restaurant.

Verified reviewLocation
It lacked any place to relax (lounge space). It wasn’t clean (carpets needed a thorough clean). Bathroom was clean enough though. Tiny bathroom- no amenities.

Verified reviewGreat location in the middle of Schull with lovely sea views. Easy free parking in front of the hotel.
Seemed a rudderless ship. No warmth of welcome nor personal attention. Investment needed too.

It's hard to find a negative. Eating at the hotel is expensive, but this is everywhere.

No hot water for the duration of our stay. Staff upon check in were a bit rude & unfriendly, the staff that dealt with the water issue were nicer than the check in staff on Saturday but just felt like after paying 400 euro for 1 night up front you would expect better
