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 StatesIs tough to come up with something. One of our rooms didn't have a hair dryer comma and when that was brought to the staff's attention it was immediately resolved. A lighter blanket would have been nice since it wasn't nearly cold enough for the provided feathered ducka.
Breakfast was great - not just the cold cuts you usually find, but included great scrambled eggs and bacon. The other selections - yogurt, cereals, juices, hot drinks (including chocolate), etc - were great.

GermanyThere is no kettle in the room. Next to the hotel is the restaurant which is open for all guests who come to visit Skogafoss. It is a bit noisy and crowded at the entrance lobby area while it is peak dining hour.
From the window can see the waterfall, great view.

United KingdomEmail from booking.com didn't make it clear how we needed to pick up the keys and the address we got sent us to the wrong place. There was also an issue with lots of flies in the accommodation which we had to chase out/swat in order to be able eat dinner.
Really great place next to Skogafoss. We had the terrace superior apartment which was very secluded. Bonus was that it came with a hot tub. We really enjoyed our stay here after the Laugavegur hike and had a really great evening before moving on to our next road trip destination.

CanadaThe location is amazing - you can walk over to Skógafoss in less than 5 minutes - and if you book a room with a view, you can see it from your rooms! We had a small room but it did its job. The restaurant was nice - again you have great views of the falls from there.

The breakfast buffet in the morning was so amazing, the location was wonderful too. We had one of the larger family rooms that was spacious and roomy.
