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...).

United KingdomThe hotel is very nice and luxurious but for the price you pay to stay there it would have been good if breakfast was included.
Location of the hotel was great and the staff were fantastic even when other guests were being rude/harsh to them for no reason. We were lucky to have a room at the front of the hotel so we had a really good view. We also ordered room service after a long day and it was a reasonable price and came to the room quickly. Plenty of parking so no need to worry.

United KingdomReally impressed that they offer a room call service for the northern lights! The hotel is spacious stylish and super welcoming. Restaurant had delicious food. The hot tub and sauna facilities were great (complimentary robe in room). Staff were incredibly friendly. Would highly recommend! Ideal for an early wake up to go for a glacier hike from Skaftafell.

United KingdomThe open shower - water was flowing everywhere in the bathroom, making the floor really slippery. It was so much water that it overflowed into the room and escaped from the entrance door. Luckily the staff was so kind to clean it immediately. Hot tub - water was very chlorinated and dried our skin out. There was a lot of light coming from the gym (located in front of the hot tubs) and it prevented us from observing the sky and the autora clearly. Maybe some curtains to cover the gym’s windows could help? Restaurant - when we asked if the fish was wild caught or farmed (to decide whether to order it or not) we were told the kitchen staff “was not sure”, which didn’t sound professional considering all food should be traceable.
Location was superbe and surrounded by nature. Facility was extremely clean and room was spacious with very comfortable beds and a bay window nook to relax and watch the aurora. Good selection of coffee and teas. The restaurant (apart from a small glitch) was really good and the buffet breakfast had really good quality and variety of food. The staff was very kind and considerate.

SwitzerlandThe sauna and hot tub area get busy but that's to be expected.
Lovely hotel on the inside, with cozy rooms. Nice restaurant and breakfast buffet. We stopped for one night on a road trip, good proximity to diamond beach. It's much nicer on the inside than it looks from the outside, and it's very cozy inside.

United KingdomAs with a lot of hotels the pillows are too thick and hard, but that's more my personal preference.
What a find! Lovely hotel close to Diamond Beach. Very clean and modern with two large outdoor hot tubs and a sauna. Breakfast buffet was delicious. Lots of choice. We ate in the restaurant both nights. The food was excellent and the restaurant staff were attentive and friendly. We even managed to see the Northern Lights while we were there. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful room and the location was perfect. We saw an amazing Aurora Borealis right in front of the hotel which was a unique experience.
