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...).

MaltaThere's nothing which I didn't like.
The location is exceptional. It is a quiet area with a lot of open space across the lake so it's perfect to try and spot the Northern Lights during the night. The hikes are also breathtaking, with beautiful views. The yurts are very cosy, spacious and beautifully decorated. The breakfast provided was wonderful and perfect, since you can take it in the yurt itself. I loved the fact that you can use the barn to cook some sausages or marshmallows, and the staff are so nice and helpful!

SwitzerlandMaybe the breakfast could be improved. The distance to city is a bit far. We see most of the guests rent the car.
The surrounding is really amazing. Kids can do sledge. We can do a hike. Even bathroom is outside, they're very close and clean. We never need to wait to use. Gigi is very nice.

TurkeyThere's nothing what we did not like, everything was great and highly recommended.
Awesomeness in a small package. It was very exciting for us to experience a Yurt in Finland, as "Yurt" has it's roots in old Turkish - meaning "Home". Although the weather was cold, the Yurt itself was pleasantly warm. Everything looks very basic at first glance. However it proves to be very sufficient and even very refreshing so that it is just perfect. Gigi is a very kind and helpful person. Gigi recommended an app for the northern lights. However we were a bit unlucky and the weather did not allow us to see the northern lights. She offered us free Marshmellows as a compensation, which was very sweet. We will be back next year and stay again at Yurt District and this time we will bring a little surprise with us from Türkiye for Gigi. Thank you for everything 💙

United KingdomWhile recycling efforts are commendable, it's true that not all materials are recyclable. A small, designated bin for general, non-recyclable waste would be a practical addition.
Our yurt stay was absolutely magical! It was incredibly comfortable, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The staff were exceptional – so attentive and helpful, making sure we had a perfect experience. The location was simply breathtaking, nestled in the heart of nature. It felt like stepping into a fairytale, the ideal escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. A surprising bonus was the shared bathroom facilities. Each nighttime visit became an opportunity to witness the awe-inspiring Northern Lights!

United KingdomTransportation is hard / expensive unless if you don’t have own vehicle. There are very less options of food in mini market.. it’s good for people used to cook barbecue. But if you are not a barbecue fan then it will be hard staying there..I would suggest to bring your own pre cooked or quick foods like cup noodle before you visit this place.
The location is very best and we had a chance of seeing northern lights from the day one.. Staff are very nice and helpful, they are always available sort out any needs.

Israel- a shower in the evening is a bit smelly, as humid concentrates there
+ Gigi is very friendly, originally from Mongolia, helped with grilling, gave us sleight, always reminded us on Aurora appearance! + I know we were lucky with timing and all, but we saw aurora at the best, and as we speak with people living in cities - they couldn’t see it, no. So, it is a great location. We tried two trails around, one goes at high altitude and heavy, but worth the view! + Showers and yurts are warm despite -18 outside

United StatesI cannot think of anything-it exceeded my expectations.
The yurt was a very unique and wonderful place to stay. It was fully appointed and very comfortable. Gigi was very welcoming and explained all of the information we needed for our stay. The walking trail was beautiful and easy to follow. We also appreciated that sleds were provided. Gigi was wonderful alerting everyone to the Aurora at night. The provided breakfast was typical of a Finnish breakfast and I enjoyed it! The shower and toilet blocks were very clean. I would be back!
