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.).

The noise from the street behind us was a lot (we visited on a long weekend) and went on until the wee hours of the morning.
The location was incredible and the hotel pretty. We had dinner there for my daughter’s birthday, and the server was very sweet with her.

Due to scheduling issue, staff at International arranged rooms for us, essentially across the street, at the Killarney Plaza Hotel. They were HIGHLY proactive in ensuring that we had a pleasant stay in Killarney. Food at Hannigan's at the International was great, too.

I wish we could have stayed longer! Unfortunately, we had only planned to stay for two days in Killarney, but I would recommend travelers to stay at least three! There is so much to do, and the hotel makes the softest landing spot.
Upon check-in, the staff obliged our request by providing the most convenient room for my mother, who is challenged with walking distances and stairs. They even offered us a wheelchair to help me assist her with local strolls outside the hotel. So kind! They offered us an upgraded room nearest the lift on the second floor, with comfortable beds, and the room was well-maintained. We enjoyed the rest time in the room between adventure tours. Aside from the friendly and accommodating staff, the hotel is conveniently located near a few breakfast coffee shops and evening treats like take-away fish and chips and pizza just across the street--both delicious! And my son and I found several shops, restaurants, and pubs only a short stroll from the hotel when we ventured out for ice cream one evening. Our hotel breakfast on the morning of our departure was tasty and reasonably priced. I have already recommended this hotel to two groups of friends planning an Ireland retreat.

The noise level in the alley next to our windows was nonstop all night long both Saturday and Sunday. We had fans but we’re still woken up all night long.
We loved the location and the hotel was very clean and just beautiful! Breakfast was delicious each morning too.

As I mentioned, the breakfast staff were great. We were off cycling very early and they put on a breakfast for us. But the scrambled eggs and the poached eggs in particular were not great. We skipped breakfast and ate out on the second morning of our stay. A few more toiletries in the bathroom would be nice.
Check in staff and breakfast staff were great. Location is perfect. Room was very spacious.

We had no complaints about our stay! We got given notice a few days before of extra events on in the city which was helpful to be aware of traffic / parking wise
Although our stay was short and we’re out most of the time we found the staff and facilities to be perfect! Our room was lovely and clean as was the hotel itself. We dined out in the town for dinner but had a lovely breakfast the following morning which had plenty of choice on the menu! We paid €7 for overnight parking which if you’re from Dublin is extremely reasonable! The car park was one road over which a lane we could cut through
