Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The pub can be a bit noisy if you plan to go to bed early.
We had a wonderful short stay! The location was ideal for getting around the centre of Dublin, and everything felt easy and convenient. The staff were warm and very accommodating, kindly arranging an early check-in after our morning flight, which made all the difference and let us rest before exploring the city. Highly recommend!

The room could maybe do with a freshen up and carpet clean, it wasnt bad but it would make it a lot better. The toiletries need replaced after each stay as I went to use some and it was empty and the towels were very rough. Just minor details really. Everything else was ok and the staff were lovely and coped so well under pressure.
The staff were lovely and helpful, general atmosphere in the bar was great and I loved the little dog running around. The room was very basic but had what we needed and the bed was comfy.

No breakfast available and quite noisy because we're were in a front room over the bar, which was very busy due to the rugby when we stayed.
Food from the pub was great, staff were great and room was lovely.

Room was a bit warm but understandable for the heat that day. The toilet did make a bit of noise during the night which was a bit disruptive
Location for the Aviva is perfect. Room was a very decent size and comfortable. Bar downstairs was also great for food and drinks.

It was exactly what I wanted in terms of affordability, location, and friendly greeting. It is clean, but certainly not a luxury hotel. Make sure to ask questions about lodging upfront because if bar is closed, there is no front desk.
Great location! Friendly greeting. Quiet, considering over bar and in the thick of Dublin.

The room was comfortable but could have done with a lift. The vanity light in the bathroom and the hairdryer both had a life of their own and you needed to hold your mouth right for them to work 😃 . Staff were very friendly and efficient - new batteries for the remote and a fan for the room were provided quickly. Bar was popular and the food was good. Bonus of a fun pub quiz on Thursday
