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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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):
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.
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.).

GermanyWith the snow that had engulfed the area, salt on the sidewalks would have been nice. Also, the water smelled like sulfur (nothing anyone can do since it comes from a natural hot spring).
Room was small but very quaint! The views getting to the hotel and at the hotel were incredible, definitely an authentic Iceland experience. No breakfast included or offered, but coffee and hot chocolate were served 24/7 in the lounge area.

United StatesSlanted ceilings were too low for tall people.
Very friendly staff. Optional (not included) breakfast on site. Great view from the hotel. Quaint hotel. Upper floor has slanted ceilings - my tall husband banged his head a time or two, but I was fine. Small, cozy rooms. Fine for a night. Not sure I’d want to stay here long-term.

United KingdomHot tub temperature needed checking as it was far too hot and we couldnt sit in it. The manager did check this when we mentioned it. Rooms felt a little tired.
The hotel is in a beautiful setting and the room was adequate for our one night stay. It had everything we needed. There was a hot tub and sauna available to guests and a large lounge and dining area with microwave, kettle and everything you need to make food.

NetherlandsThe only very small downside was that there was no shower gel or shampoo available when we arrived in the room, but this was quickly fixed by asking the personnel for some.
The property was conveniently located and the views were amazing. We had the nice surprise of being able to use the hot tub when we arrived !

SwitzerlandA pleasant hotel with a (really) hot tub and a sauna. During the winter season they do not provide food. However, there is a bakery and an excellent restaurant in the town over the bridge. The rooms are nice, but have angles in the ceiling which is a little weird to navigate the room. During our stay, the hotel was doing renovations.

Czech RepublicWe didn't mind at all, the hotel is still very nice and clean, but it is a bit bit older and more plain, so do not expect anything too luxurious.
The staff was great, they even upgraded us to a better room since it was my mom's birthday. Kitchen was fully equipped. The location is also quite convenient and the outdoor jacuzzi and sauna was great in the evening to warm up a little bit (they have a changing room right next to it).

Loved the little cabin! Was absolutely wonderful. Great location if you're on a roadtrip. Neighbors saw the northern lights from their cabin the night before I arrived, so great potential.

Czech RepublicSome rooms, included ours, didn't have room numbers, so it was kinda confusing and we had to try to put the keys on random rooms.
The location of this hotel was really nice, we had a wonderful view on the mountains. The hotel provided us some equipment for breakfast (i.e. jam, tea, coffee, plates and cutlery).

GermanyWe were missing some kitchen equipment. There was only one pot and one pan. Also a bowl and some scissors might have been handy. The fridge is small but kept the goods cool. We only could not make sense of the TV as you needed to log into an App account or so. But maybe it was us. We saw so many sights that TV was not our priority anyway.
We booked a bungalow/private cabin and it was totally worth it. When you were preparing meals you could see the ocean and the volcanoes at the horizon, at times you could even hear the waves from the ocean.. You can park your car right in front of the bungalow/cabin. There was even a hot spa outside you could use for free. Beds were comfy, the entire bungalow/cabin really cosy. WiFi is strong and good. Check-in and check-out were super easy and convenient. Supermarkets are 3km away. We can highly recommend this hotel with its cute cabins.

CanadaThe hotel needs some love (aka fixing), but nothing serious. The jacuzzi / sauna close at 10pm or 11pm, not sure, but a nighttime hot tub while watching the northern lights would be nice (night falls quite early, so we still got some).
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. They weren't serving breakfast that time of the yerar, but they prepared a nice buffet (toast, peanut butter, a few jams, crackers etc.), plus coffee and teas. So... unofficial, but still breakfast. We had an appartment with balcony and all, so we watched / filemd the northern lights from the comfort of our room / balcony. Especially in winter, that's an awesome thing! The two outside pictures are of the same general area - one by day, one by hight.
