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 reviewThe view was stunning. Mary, Pat, Ann, and Melissa were delightful. We loved the dogs next door and the cows and sheep in neighboring fields. A package of art supplies was delivered in time for us.
Don't take the Sat-Nav route -- the roads are extremely narrow. The bicycle loop is wider. But what else would you expect in Ireland?
Thank you for my review. we enjoyed having you .Pat Mary and Ann

Verified reviewI stayed for one night and had a wonderful experience. The room was spotless, comfortable, and well-equipped. The hosts (Mary) were warm and welcoming, making me feel right at home. Breakfast was delicious, with fresh local produce. The location was peaceful yet convenient for exploring the area. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to others.
Nothing, everything was perfect!!!!

Verified reviewEverything was wonderful at the Three Arches. Mary is a lovely host and I wish we could have stayed longer! Comfortable beds, great breakfast, and good location to access things nearby. My wife and two friends were visiting to hike Croagh Patrick and we can't wait to come back. We will come stay with Mary at the Three Arches again!
Nothing!

Verified reviewI honestly can't recommend this lovely accommodation enough! I booked this B&B for my parents first night of their 30 year wedding anniversary roadtrip through Ireland and the owner went out of their way to make it so special for them. Not only did she give them a room with an amazing view but she also decorated the room, gifted them snacks and drinks and wrote them a handwriting card. My parents were over the moon and said that the next time they come to Ireland they want to stay at this B&B for a longer time than just one night. They said the room was very lovely and clean and the breakfast was amazing. Thank you Mary for making this happen and thanks to your daughter as well who I heard helped with the lovely surprise for my parents.
Thank you Angela .it was a pleasure having your parents and I hope we will meet again . Thanks Mary pat and Ann

Verified reviewBreakfast was delicious, and location is stunning. When we arrived Mary made us tea and gave us cake, and recommended a small restaurant in the local town where the food was all home cooked and delicious. And Pat Mary's husband was such a lovely man, could have sat and chatted all day. WE will definitely be returning, as want to spend a day on Clare island.
There was nothing to criticize, even the weather was fabulous.
