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 KingdomA clean, cosy room. We arrived to a note on the reception to welcome us with our room key. A nice touch was a bar of Icelandic chocolate waiting for us in our room. The hotel is perfectly placed next to the harbour and next to the Eurovision cafe/ exhibition and a short walk away from the geothermal pool. We would stay here again.

CanadaParking is limited but okay. Pub next door limited food so ate by harbour (drove there)
It had a private bathroom, room was on the ground(2nd floor stairs only) very clean and bed comfortable. Staff was outstanding, friendly informative for dining places told us about Geosea Thermal Pool within walking distance, gave us towels for thermal pool. Beautiful view of town and harbour from hotel. Older hotel but all renovated. Continental breakfast was good met lots of people who were going on whale watching tour. Town very popular for this! Wonderful experience stayed 1 night. Small pub and museum next door walked thru, free when staying at hotel but went down to harbour for supper for fish and chips.

Isle of ManI was sure I had booked breakfast however when we arrived at the hotel we were informed breakfast is not included from November. There was the option of a toaster/microwave so we could have made our own, we chose to go into town and have breakfast in the cafe opposite Whale Watching ticket office.
The Hotel itself was fantastic, the staff member was so helpful with advice for us. We went into the Eurovision exhibition.

IndiaWe got a room on ground floor, the sound of walking and talking from the floor above was so loud, it kept us awake for a long time at night.
Location is perfect, Húsavík is small town so everything is walking distance from hotel, even the harbor. Breakfast was also pretty decent.

United StatesBreakfast was not worth attending. The TV in my room had 1 channel working and was a tiny tiny television. But I wasn’t there for either of those items. So I didn’t really care.
Loved the “Eurovision” theme + bar + museum + it even had Elves houses! A must if you’re here bc of the Eurovision movie as I was. 200 meters from the restaurants and harbor center. Clean, great bed, I rented the corner room with harbor view, and enjoyed that. Parking was great. Not a luxury hotel, but friendly staff who also ran the bar. I’d stay here again while in Húsavík.
