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 StatesThere wasn’t a single thing we didn’t like! We loved our stay! Thank you Hotel Lotus!
Absolutely beautiful hotel, extremely friendly staff and conveniently located!! We walked downtown from the hotel for dinner and then rode the bus back (there’s a bus stop visible from the hotel entrance). The staff were accommodating, kind and offered recommendations to us. I did a lot of research before choosing this hotel and saw that several reviews on multiple Icelandic hotels mentioned “small/gross bathrooms,” so I feel obligated to mention that we both thought Hotel Lotus’s bathroom was so beautiful I took photos to replicate it at home! Size is relative to the individual using the restroom, so it’s possible that someone of large stature would consider them “small,” however this is standard for European bathrooms and we found it to be entirely functional and highly aesthetic. The provided breakfast was also incredible (AND they had free chocolate cake all day!). Don’t hesitate!! Hotel Lotus is where we will stay if we ever get the chance to go back to Iceland!!

AustriaVery nice hotel and friendly staff. A lot of different breakfast options for everyone (bread and skyr were especially yummy). Coffee and cake were available all day. Rooms are tiny but very clean. I'd definitely recommend this cozy hotel. It's much nicer than big, anonymous hotels. Everyone there was helpful and kind.

United StatesThe keypad entry on the front door and rooms is a bit confusing and finicky to operate after hours, took me several tries inputting my access code to get entry to the building which was a little stressful. Once you learn how to use the keypads properly, this isn't an issue, though. The view in my room was of a parking lot, but I didn't book this for the view.
Clean, modern hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was good. I had a car issue and one of the hotel staff helped direct me to a nearby location to get it looked into.

HungaryWe brought external HDD for watching movies but the TV is not handled that.
First of all, I want to suprise my partner with some roses and sparkling wine and some decorations. The Hotel do everything for the romantic surprise gonna well. The hotel was very tidy. We can't see cleaning staff. Our room was very fascinating. We got an apartment instead of a Double Room for free. My partner was very happy for this. The check-in and check-out was very dynamic. You need only a Name that in your reservation and your Room number. :)

NetherlandsStaff availability was lacking; no one was present at the reception during my check-in at 20:50 or check-out at 09:15. While not essential, it felt odd. Reception should have been open. The only staff member I encountered was at breakfast, but interaction was minimal, barely managing a muttered 'good morning.' In the hospitality industry, one expects more engagement than staff absorbed in their phones at a table.
Great bed, delicious breakfast. Suitable for a stopover.
