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...).

United KingdomSpa is way too small for hotel capacity. Changing rooms in ladies for about 40 people but spa would only accommodate 12 at most comfortably. Same with showers-they were lovely but far too much space used. Only 4 hanging chairs so nowhere else to sit. Not enough information or advice given at arrival. Cleaning of rooms not up to standard - the surfaces of tables not cleaned. 1st day carpet not vacuumed. Not enough towels for 4, only replaced with 3

Fabulous hotel. Honestly, the staff are amazing, particularly the reception ladies and the conceirege desk. Super helpfl and always smiling. Rooms were clean and nice, they have a decent gym and really nice spa. Spa access is not always included with the booking so do check as this is something not to miss out on. I didnt have the chance to try the breakfast so cannot comment on this. It is around 15 mins walking distance from the center, and most of the tours do pick ups from this hotel location as well, which is great.

IrelandI really enjoyed my stay and am looking forward to staying again. What I really appreciated about my stay: It was very clean The 24 hour reception had actual staff present in person The bed was very comfortable I loved the wireless phone chargers on the nightstand The room was lovely and warm There was loads of free parking I was very happy about the mini fridge, the mirrors and the large window in the room I would suggest they update the tv to a smart tv that I can sign-in to own my streaming services/netflix or use Chromecast as the tv channel reception was very poor and often unwatchable. Overall it was an excellent stay.

United KingdomThe spa opening hours are rather short, but we just had to miss out on that.
Parking, across the road opposite the hotel, was free and we always found a space. It's close to the coast and the Grótta Lighthouse, which is where we were told to go and see the aurora on our first night in Iceland, which worked out perfectly.

The free upgrade and the panoramic suite with the view. Also there were a lot of amenities in the bathroom which most hotels don’t offer. Example of amenities include razor, comb, sewing kit, slippers, toothbrush, etc. The breakfast was very good and had a lot of choices!

IrelandThe spa was very underwhelming for a hotel called "Hotel Ísland – Spa & Wellness Hotel". It consists of a sauna (which was broken during my stay) and 2 indoor hot tubs. It wasn't bad, I was just expecting more. Also, the breakfast was a bit lacking in variety for a 4 star hotel.
I booked the large room on the top floor and it was huge and had great views of Reykjavik. Everything was very clean and new.
