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.).

Standard rooms should accommodate a family of four with young children rather than having to book a suite which is perhaps more suitable for families with older children.
The children’s facilities were great!

The hotel is truly massive, I have never stayed in such a large hotel, so it can be a bit of a maze to get to you room from reception/restaurant. Car park is big, but you can be several minutes walk from the reception. My teenage children couldnt swim at times that would suit us as it is adult only.
Spacious room with comfortable bed. Nice restauarant, lots of breakfast options. Firendly staff. Live music.

Noisy children in all dining areas. Wandering around breakfast smorgasbord. Dangerous & inconvenient. Overpriced for rooms. Food reasonable though.
Smorgasbord breakfast was extensive, plus had a la carte choice too.

Left a brand new pair of shorts €55 worth on the bed when leaving and rang the hotel reception on way home and receptionist said she’d check from cleaning staff and would call me back which she didn’t so I called again and to be told they didn’t show up and if they did she would call back again never heard back so rang a few days later again and told same thing I’m surprised they weren’t handed up so it’s bad reflection on cleaning staff to not be trusted as to what they do with lost items
Interior of hotel was very nice and great choice for breakfast swimming pool very good

We weren’t able to use the pool bc the hours weren’t long enough. We spent the day doing ring of Kerry and it was closed when we got back. The kids were super bummed.
This was one of our favorite stops on our trip! It’s a beautiful hotel with incredibly friendly staff.

You have to take the car to go to the center, but the place is perfect if you are planning an on the road tour of Ireland.
Beautiful place in Killarney, perfect if you want to stop a night like us. The hotel is new and modern, with an internal spa. The room is big and clean. Dinner and breakfast were good (especially the second one). I recommend it!
