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):
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 had an incredible time in Dalasetur. We had decided to stay for 13 nights in a row because everything looked so nice on the internet. We didn't regret it as it was even more beautiful in reality. The cabins are very cosy, lovingly furnished (but without a closet), and the soft sound of the stream behind the house and the view towards the nearby fjord make the stay a totally relaxing experience. After expeditions in the vicinity, you can enjoy the small sauna with a warm outdoor shower or hot pot adjacent to the cabins. There is another hot pot at the river side, where you can sit in the warm water while watching the wild stream and the surrounding green mountains with patches of snow on their tops. Alternatively, it is worth switching between the hot pot and the creek of melted ice water - you will feel like a new person! And don't worry if you lose something in the torrential stream - it will reappear a few kilometers further on in the fjord at Hofsós. I involuntarily tried it with my left flip-flop - it worked! When the weather is bad, or if you want a day off activities, you can watch films or series for free via Netflix or Disney. This place has a special power, which continues working after leaving. The hosts, Daniel and Stefan, are very friendly and helpful, always willing to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Stefan's cakes and other pastries served at the nearby Dala Kaffi are delicious, as are Daniel’s soups. Daniel is also an excellent disc golf player - try him, it's fun! As is Yogi, the dog-manager (-: All in all, Dalasetur’s slogan "Come as a guest, leave as a friend" proved true for us, and it certainly won't be our last stay in Dalasetur! Katja & Daniel

GermanyNothing. You need only an off-road car to reach this secret place.
It is an awesome and cozy place, beautifully arranged by the friendly hosts. The guesthouse, with its floor-to-ceiling windows, gives the impression of being immersed in Icelandic nature, even while having breakfast inside.

Amazing , the lay out is perfect, incredibly comfortable and cosy . The bedding is top quality and the beds really comfortable. We stayed after Dalasetur 2 more places that were more expensive yet not anywhere as comfortable and well planned out as Dalasetur. The hosts were lovely guys incredibly helpful and kind . There’s so much to do in that area you need at least a few days to stay there . The large hot tub by the river is an amazing experience . We have already booked for a week for next year . It’s a mind blowing destination of beauty and comfort don’t miss out on staying here

NetherlandsThe duvet/quilt is a bit too warm at night even we switch off the heater.
The host is very helpful and gives us clear description on how to reach the property, though the route on Google map is not correct. I would stay longer if I know there's such a nice view and great hot tub near the river. Look forward to staying in the same place again and hope we would see new changes over time.

It was a bit confusing to get to here, but turned out the location was great. It's literally surroinded by the mountain. I got the chance to see the aurora staying overnight. The house was soooo clean and comfortable. TV(netflix as well), washing machine and dishwasher were equipped. Fridge was also spacious enough to stock a lot of food. Great mountain view from the house!

SwitzerlandThe owners did not bother to clear the road from snow upon my arrival. My 4x4 almost got stuck. There was so much snow on the road that I could hear it damaging the bottom of my car. When I brought it up to the owners, they told me they didn’t properly clear the road because life is not perfect. Then they told me that they were not planning to clear the snow at all during my entire stay, and if I was not fine with it, then I should go somewhere else. But the worst part was yet to come. There was an intruder coming up to the house each night and making noise. In the morning I found fresh footsteps in the snow right next to my bedroom wall, but the owners disregarded it. So one night I stayed awake just to investigate this, and at 5AM I heard and felt strong physical impact, like someone hitting the walls around my bedroom multiple times. It finally stopped only after reporting it to booking.com.

United KingdomIt’s a bit far from the main road and there were flies in the cabin.
The views, the hot tub, the facilities provided for are very-well thought of and it’s very clean. The outside of the cabin is also very clean and well-maintained with easy parking for us.
