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...).

IrelandThe pillows. No parking spaces available, we parked in the coach space and informed reception and luckily there wasn't a coach due for arrival as it was late Oct so they let us stay there which we were grateful for The only other thing was no trays for breakfast so we couldn't bring our food in one go. These are small things in the realm of things. Beautiful hotel and great location, so I would definitely stay again if in Athlone. It's just for feedback.
Staff were great and friendly.

United StatesI could hear music from the Lounge. There were large parties the first 2 nights, so lits of people talking loudly outside (I was on the first floor). Kids running up and diwn down my hall, shrieking, laughing, and randomly knocking on doors at 11 pm. It woke me up, and it was hard to get back to sleep.
Modern. My room looked over the river as requested. Nice dinner at the hotel restaurant. Had a nice big bed.

IrelandCould clean the windows on the outside, the kettle was not working.
Unexpectedly got a business room, with a stunning river view onto St Peter and Paul’s Church! The room was clean, comfortable and cosy, and it was great to have a coffee maker and the tea on hand. The staff were also very friendly. One tip: if you're looking for a corporate discount, it's best to call them directly first.

United KingdomWe booked a room with a river view but room 115 was very much a side on view. The window in the room does not close tightly and the noise from the dining room outside and the music from the floor below was not tolerable. Also, the edge of the carpet was threadbare.
Location is excellent. We encountered noise problems with our allocated room (115) but were quickly moved to 311 which was a suite and it much appreciated. It was first class.
