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 KingdomUnfortunately the wood wasn't sealed properly and on our second night with an icy wind blowing, my husband had to sleep with his beany on his head, as the air made quite a breeze into the cottage through the planks. The central heating wasn't enough. This is in March, so I would hate to think what mid winter is like...
The location, close to all the golden circle sites. The rustic feel of a proper wooden cottage.

United KingdomThe kitchen equipment hadn't been checked for cleanliness. I had to wash up anything I wanted to use before using it. Frying pans still had oil and fat in them. We also found it hard to cook on the two portable rings but maybe that was just us. If it hadn't been for the cleanliness of the kitchen equipment our stay would ha e been rated much more highly but it was very off putting.
We stayed in an economy 2 bedroom cottage. The beds were very comfortable and it was warm and cosy. There was lots of hot water. The cottage was very well located for Geysit, Gulfoss, Laugarvatn etc.

United KingdomThe hot tub was freezing cold so unusable, which was the main reason for choosing this accommodation. The staff offered us a different lodge but the water wasn’t much warmer and the views weren’t as good so we stuck to the original lodge and decided not to use the hot tub. The Tv didn’t have any channels available, the wifi went off and didn’t come back on for the entire stay. There was no hot water in the lodge at all, the shower and tap were again freezing cold which we only discovered in the morning, where there was no staff available to speak to, so we left without having been able to shower.
The lodge was clean and the bed/living room and bathroom were modern and comfortable. The food was good and the staff friendly.

AustriaThe hut itself came into some age... it was new painted and clean, but doors and the general picture of the hut looks a little bit old and is sometimes a litte bit broken. Overall okay, I would go there again, but I expected a little bit more...
Nice location of the hut and absolutely genius hut (room) concept (hut with 2 bedrooms, big front window and a terrace with a hot pot!!!). Also the kitchen and cooking facilities have been great - everything there what you need!

Hong KongMany things were broken and didn’t fix, like the bathroom door could not be locked. No WiFi as promised. The room was not cleaned thoroughly. The towel in the bathroom was all wet and the icebox in the fridge was in a mess with a bag of ice inside and a frozen bowl too. The provided address could not help the find the property. The staff were too busy to help check-in.

United StatesOne of the reasons I booked this site was because of the hot tub and it was Luke warm at best. They had no cover on it, and the temperature was faulty cold outside so it cooled off considerably. All they needed was a cover and it would have been warm. Girls at check in told us wrong cabin, so we spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out which cabin was ours, they have no numbers on them. Water in sink dripped all nigh making noise. They had no coffe, crea, tea, etc which is really a bare minimum to expect. I wouldn’t stay here again
Good location..old cabins..but plenty of space for 2 people

AustraliaThe tub was pretty warm, but could’ve been a hotter. The tub was also a bit dirty. There was lots of weird pollen/detritus in the tub that came through water entry pipe into the hot tub. If we knew what it was exactly, it would’ve put our minds at ease somewhat. A few things that need to be improved is that the shower didn’t drain well and water pooled up around the shower, which was pretty gross. The shower water didn’t get hot enough and the small shower head kept falling down. A few small things like providing some shampoo, conditioner and soap would’ve been a nice touch that we’ve had provided at other nearby cottages. The handle on one of the knifes in the kitchen was not in great condition and should probably be replaced for safety reasons.
The cottage has a beautiful view & was a lovely place to stay at the start of our holiday in Iceland. The kitchen had everything we needed for basic cooking and even had nice glasses for drinking wine. The wifi was great and we streamed Netflix on our laptop when it was too rainy outside. There were heaters in the living area, bedroom and bathroom, which kept us cozy & warm! Overall the cottage was relatively clean. The hot tub in our particular cottage was under cover with glass windows to see the view outside and this made it perfect for a relaxing arvo while it was stormy and raining outside.

United Statesmy flight was cancelled and we missed our first night which was communicated over 24 hours in advance and there was no refund or discount. The operator was very nice but had a hard time understanding English. She is polish. A hamburger at the restaurant was 25 dollars and the lasagna was 30 dollars (USD), which I had heard was the case but still expensive.
the accommodations were good for the three people we had traveling. the place was clean and convenient. the restaurant had good food. There was a few store type items, milk, yogurt, ect. We had a hot tub and the view of the mountains were beautiful!
