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 KingdomThe room was quite warm and I didn't sleep well. I mentioned this at check-out and was told that there were fans I could have requested in reception. I hope this helps all future clients.
Staff are friendly and very helpful. Views are amazing. Dinner had many choices and was delicious. The team had put a candle in my hubbies dessert as it was his birthday. Very nice touch! The pool was a decent size and well looked after. Towels are provided and there are lockers in the changing rooms.

United KingdomI think the leisure centre needs a hot tub and I also would like a smokers area with some seat's and few tables outside. That's my only suggestion for some improvements. Everything else just fabulous x
The staff were all amazing very friendly helpful and they couldn't do enough for myself and disabled mum. The food was delicious, and bedrooms so comfortable. We arrived on a Sunday to check out one the Tuesday LOL we ended up staying to the Friday. The weather was amazing and the beach so close. The pool sauna and steam I loved also. We loved our stay many thanks and we'll be down again soon! Love Siobhàn & Mary (mum & daughter) xx

United KingdomI could not fault the hotel, staff or food. I emailed the hotel immediately when we arrived home to express how well we enjoyed our stay.
The room was both spacious and comfortable. The leisure facilities at the hotel were also very good. We dined in the main bar for dinner and had breakfast. Both of which were delicious and plentiful.

IrelandRecently this hotel changed the bar area to the other end of the hotel , the hotel is set in stunning scenery, but in the new bar the view is the carpark, there is no where to sit outside to either eat or drink , this is a huge wasted opportunity to use the views , this was very disappointing and ruin it a bit for us as it was the views we went for
Staff were so friendly and helpful, food was lovely
