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...).

CanadaThere is no elevator and that’s the only thing lacking at this place.
I would give a 5 star just because of the location of it. Very close to the center and have AMAZING views of Kirkjufell mountain. There is a shoe rack at the entrance, always had ample space. The rooms were clean and the necessary amenities were provided. Has a kitchen as well and I saw everyone mentioned how busy it was. We had the kitchen all to ourselves in the morning. Also the kitchen has the best views.

United KingdomNothing! It was perfect!
Location is everything with this property... it is right on the waterfront, overlooking Kirkjufell! We stayed in one of the apartments which was very clean, with plenty of space and comfortable beds. We had everything we needed for self catering. The blackout curtains were perfect for a summer stay. Grundarfjordur is a great place to stay to explore the area and is small enough to walk to the supermarket and restaurants.

LatviaOur stay here was absolutely fantastic. The Guesthouse was easy to reach and was at a womderful, calm location. And what views around! The little town was charming too. The town was close to nice sights of the peninsula. The rooms were lovely, clean, comfortable and modern. The common kitchen had all that was needed. We really enjoyed our stay.

CanadaWe stayed after a day exploring the Snaefellsness Peninsula. Perfect location to see Kirkjufell Mountain before continuing on to the Westfjords. Room was basic but contained everything we needed for a one-night stay.

EgyptThe only issue we had is that we had booked one night in a regular room and then one night separately in a sea view room. There was no way to leave the luggage at the guesthouse, so we had to put everything back in our car and then bring it up again in the evening.
The location is outstanding with the view of Kirkjufell mountain and perfect starting point for the Peninsula loop. The rooms were comfortable and the common kitchen is a nice feature. We met the Icelandic owner, who was very nice and interesting to talk to. Definitely book the sea view rooms.

United StatesBest value in Iceland! Simple rooms- very clean, very organized. We stayed 2 nights for which I mistakenly booked 2 different rooms. Proprietors kindly prepared our 2nd room before we checked out of first room, thereby allowing us to just move our bags. We very much appreciated their consideration. Also, great location and good water pressure in shower!

United StatesWe had asked for two rooms next to each other nearly 3 months before our visit. (We have a 3 year old and 13 year old). They did not have the rooms next to each other upon arrival but there was only 1 room separating us. It wasn't a big deal though and we made it work. I think they had a pool but never found it.
The rooms were comfortable and we had a nice view of the ocean and mountains. The shower was great! They had a nice kitchen though we didn't use it. The staff was very helpful.

The location is great. Easy to find and very close to freeway. The kitchen is big, can accommodate many guests. You can really cook there if you need to.
