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 StatesThis was one of our favorite places to stay in Iceland. I wish I had gotten the girls name that helped with breakfast, but she was amazing. The breakfast that is included was so good. The room was so comfortable and clean. It was really a large room. My kids loved all of the free hot chocolate from the machine in the hallway.

Germany-
An excellent hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms. My room was bigger than I had expected and it had a great view over the Skógafoss waterfall. The breakfast is excellent, the restaurant is open almost all day and you can get a delicious lunch, dinner or a light meal there. In the hallway there are coffee machines, so that you can get a coffee, tea or hot chocolate anytime you want. Since I travelled by bus, it was also an advantage that the bus stop is right in front of the hotel. The hotel has a luggage room, excellent WiFi and the staff is also friendly and helpful. I sincerely recommend this hotel.

Australiait was superb
The staff were so wonderful and accomodating. Very very clean. The room with the mountain view is always worth the upgrade. Restaurant meals are expensive but we had the lamb and it was huge! Well worth the price and we used it for a light lunch after the museum the next day. Couldn’t recommend enough

United KingdomWe stayed in four places in Iceland. This was the most expensive by a distance but the most basic with small rooms. The most frustrating thing was it’s quite noisy with a loud coffee machine in the hallway which guests use all night when trying to spot the lights. The room doors are code entry which beep for each button and the codes are quite obvious but there is no way of securing the door on the inside.
It was clean and in the location that we needed. Bar restaurant is nice but expensive.
