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.).

GermanyWe loved our stay at Nordic Natura. The cabin was very cozy and well equipped, there was nothing we missed. The views of the canyon next to it were also stunning. The owner welcomed us with a little gift and made sure that everything is fine doing our stay. On our first night we even got an amazing display of the northern lights. Overall it is the perfect stay if you want to explorer the north of Iceland, I.e. Husavik, Asbyrgi, Dettifoss…

United KingdomThere was nothing we didn’t like about the property. We have no complaints. Although we never met you, you were very good hosts with a very impressive property :)
The property was amazing, very modern, clean and spacious for such a seemingly small place. The location and landscape was beautiful, with some great places like Húsavík not too far away, and Dettifoss only a short drive. It was easy to find too, and easy to get the keys to enter. Although it was very far from the capital but we took this as a part of our adventure when driving to and around the property. We have recommended this place to friends and family. And we would definitely stay again! :)

Beautiful modern little cottage with everything you might need, located in the countryside. Great beds, linen, towels, coffee, extremely clean, nice attention to details. A little small for 3 people but still one of the very top accommodations during our 2,5 week trip in Iceland. We had one of the few rainy days while staying here but the terrace must be great for grilling, chilling, observing the northern lights when the weather allows.

United StatesThe cabins are incredible! Very cozy, warm, and well equipped. They are decorated warm and modern. It’s only a few minutes to the canyon. There is a small grocery store and N1 station near by too. We bought all our food with us and planned on cooking so we were prepared. I really don’t think there are any restaurants to eat at. We saw the northern lights both nights we stayed here too. We went into Húsavík one of the days we were here and it made a great day trip. Definitely stay here!

The hut is super cozy and well equipped with everything that is needed. For 2 it has a perfect size and we really enjoyed staying there. It is quite new and the style is quite modern and appealing. It is a bit far off from everything, but for us this was perfect to relax and just enjoy the landscape around us.

United StatesNothing. Its a remote location in the north, but relatively close to Dettifoss falls. You need to love this kind of locations.
We loved the view, the cleanness, the cozy comfort, the facilities, the exceptional attention to details. The car access (directly to the porch). The farm. The exceptional collection of books, maps and local tips. We reserved two of the three cute 25m cottages for two days, and I wish we could stay there a week. The three new modern cottages are located in the farm with horses roaming by, about 200m from the old farm house, in a scenic, serene quite and beautiful setting and views. Each of the cottages has its own direct view of the arctic sea, a porch with chairs and table and attached parking place that was very useful during in and out in the rainy days. The cottages have huge comfy beds (one had king size, the other two twins), and a surprising large sofa (that can probably turned also into large bed). The kitchen was fully equipped with utensils for five, dish washer and every tool needed for cooking which we did use extensively. The shower is excellent, very new and clean, with great flow of hot water. There are many tips in the guest book, and many books and maps for local travel. Can be a great location for base for traveling the north east peninsula. There is a fuel station nearby (2km) with great restaurant/store open until late and a almost everything you might need for shopping (including vegetables\fruits, camping gear, food etc). There is great road access to both the east and west banks of river canyon that contain the beautiful Dettifoss, Selfoss and Hfragilsfoss falls.

AustraliaThe Unit is cramped because the sofa bed with the two extra fold up dinning chairs stored behind it encroaches on the oversized dining table. We struggled to seat two people at this table comfortably. The cutlery drawer is on the left hand side of the table, we’ll away from the kitchen and is difficult to get at because the chair backs are virtually hard up against the end of the sofa bed. We constantly had to juggle a suitcase and a food box for meal and bed times. This unit is our most costly during or 19 nights in Iceland. The Owner has spoilt a premium two person unit.
Set back, up high, from Highway 85 in between the Asbyrgi Canyon road entrance and Highway 862. Good vista of the surrounding area. Just three Units well spaced apart. Spacious balcony with outdoor seating. The bed was very comfortable. The three ring Cook Top was good.

GermanyThere’s hardly anything not to like. Only things which might be good to be aware of is the lack of a freezer in the fridge. There’s no oven (but a good stove). The door is a little tricky to pull properly shut and lock.
Cosy little cottage on the edge of a beautiful canyon. Furnishings and design were all modern and the place has been decorated with a lot of care and thought. The bed is firm and comfy, there are extra blankets, a good sized table and a modern bathroom. The host left a lot of helpful information about the cottage, as well as hiking maps to local nature outings.
