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.).

United KingdomWe booked only one hour before arrival the staff were helpful but its best to check that the room is prepared We where booked into a room that hadn't been cleaned, probably a genuine mistake, but all that was offered or a change to another room or a refund I was a little disappointed that the manager didn't extend to a discount on the meal or something I would then be giving 9 out of 10, but I have stayed at this accommodation before with no problem probably a one-off
Peaceful location

United KingdomIt's not as much as resort as I would think. There is a hot tub (option of cold plunge in little lake) and sauna, and that's about it. It was self check in which nobody communicated with us and as we followed the information from Booking we thought we had to check in between 4-6. As we arrived, there was a note on the door about check in. I would love to know this earlier as we wouldn't not had to rush as much. There was TV in our cabin, but didn't have any channels, so there was no use for us. No hairdryer available, which I think should be a standard in these cabins. There was an option to borrow it at reception however that had limited opening hours.
As there were only three other guests, we got upgraded to our own little cabin, that was really nice. The cabin was lovely, spacious and clean, the kitchen was nice and had all we needed, also dishwasher. In the bathroom there was also washing machine which we didn't use, however if you intend to, bring a washing machine powder. We loved the hot tub, there were changing rooms next to it, you have to bring your own towel. Lake next to it can be used as cold plunge - the only problem is getting in and out, maybe steps would be a good idea. Overall very nice stay and recommend staying.

United StatesEverything is perfect. Spacious room. Comfortable living area and sofa. We stayed in a two bed room apartment and with heated floor, it felt so great standing on top of it with hiking boots off. :) I would say this is a prime spot to watch Northern light. Not only there is not much light pollution around. there is nothing in front or behind the flat, which is particularly true for the two bed rooms with mountain view. The BEST part is the flat is facing north south, that means you can watch the Northern light from the room or your bed however long you want it. I know northern light is cool and all that but how many of you can stand in the below -10c for hours? You don't have to do that from lava resort :) See my attached picture.

We stayed at the Molakot (1 bd apartment) with 2 small kids. The apartment was very spacious and had everything you need - refrigerator, kettle, toaster, kitchen supplies and a lot more. The shower was spacious and clean. The bedroom is a great size and the beds were comfortable. The restaurant is in the main hall. The host was very helpful and accommodating. it is a family-ran business and everyone is very nice and helpful. The breakfast buffet is good and has a lot of options. The dinner menu is limited BUT they had great options. I had the butterfried ling cod and it was so good. The chef makes everything fresh. The property is a short 1.5 drive from Reykjavic. We saw the northern lights both nights we stayed there even though it was a bit cloudy. I highly recommend this place and thank you to everyone who made our stay special!

PortugalThere are a few details noteworthy: 1. The hairdryer is not in the room... We must pick it in the reception. It is not very convenient when it is not always opened, or when it is around - 4°C outside (the reception is in a building distant from the apartments). 2. In any place (in the Booking.com, or in the Lava Resort website) is written that the hot tub/sauna are facilities with an extra fee... It would be fair to have more clear information about the facilities and its costs on-line. 3. Pay attention: the exhaust fan is on glass, too wide and fixed around 1.65-1.70m height... We (different persons) accidentally hit the forehead on it just approaching the counter. 4. The Wi-Fi doesn't work well.
The localization is excellent . The aurora borealis there was magical. The house is very comfortable. The staff is very nice. We can go in the stables and meet the sheeps and horses of the farm with no intermediates!

SwitzerlandIt was just by chance, by writing to the property for a restaurant booking, that I got to know that their restaurant was closed. Thankfully we stocked up on food before arriving as the closest supermarket was more than 50km away. It would have been appreciated to be notified by the property beforehand so to make arrangements since the hotel is quite far off from any other facilities.
The apartments were very comfortable, welcoming, nicely furnished and spacious. We had a great two day stay there.

ItalyThe fact that the reception area, bar etc was all closed. I understand the time of year. I must say that when I called, the owner replied straightaway and provided assistance.
Simply beautiful.. Cherry on the cake was viewing the aurora borealis while sitting in the cosy living room.

ArgentinaI would have appreciated some coffee filters. I counted on a Nespresso machine which would have been much easier to cater for. There is a washing machine in the bathroom. I would have also appreciated some detergent... Wind came in through the closed bedroom windows and it felt really chilly.
Lovely property. Our cabin had a great view and we enjoyed the sheep grazing just some meters away. Ample, clean, luminous. The dining area where you need to book to have breakfast or dinner is a barn that has been spruced up and is gorgeous. I would have liked to dine there but we never managed to arrange it due to sightseeing.
