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 location couldn’t be better! The parking was easy. There’s no charge for parking on the streets. The rooms were clean, the shower was good, and the breakfast was warm and friendly. Our Host was divine! If ever, I had the good opportunity to go to Dingle, I would definitely rebook at Murphy’s Guest House. ❤️

Verified reviewNice room with full-size bed and twin bed. We used the twin to spread out our luggage. The room included a continental breakfast, but we weren't able to partake because we had early activities each morning. We were able to walk the city to see the sites. Great meals. We highly recommend taking advantage of Kingdom Falconry in Dingle. It was an amazing opportunity to see and hold multiple owls, a falcon, a hawk, and a golden eagle.
The room had a full size and twin bed. I'm 6'3" and my feet extended off the end of the full-size bed. Still slept well.

Verified reviewWe were very happy with our choice and were looked after brilliantly.
Maybe the odd brochures lying about giving information about tours or boat trips in the area?

Shower was a bit small for a big person. Bed was not as firm as I prefer.

Verified reviewMurphy’s Guesthouse was a lovely place to stay for our too brief stay in Dingle. The location and parking were central to everything. Our room was very comfortable. The breakfast each day with homemade bread was a great way to start the day. Siobhan, Owen and Ted Murphy (a very sweet dog) were really kind and helpful.
Not one thing

Verified reviewEoin is such a great host, really helpful and accomodating. Rooms are comfy, clean and the location can't be beat. Breakfast was simple but absolutely great with Eoin's amazing homemade soda bread (his mum's family recipe) and excellent coffee. Murphy's is a fantastic value, highly recommended and would stay again!
Not a single complaint!

Verified reviewIdeal location, right in the middle of touristy waterfront location but easy to walk through all of Dingle. Parking isn't included but there is a paid public lot right across the way. Breakfast is simple (coffee/tea, cereal, toast etc.) but was nice to have! We would stay here again for a short trip!
