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...).

Unique stay experience, while it was cloudy when we were there it seemed ideal for northern lights viewing. Wish we could’ve stayed longer, this had everything we needed from coffee and tea to little snacks. Bathroom was very clean. The place seemed very intentionally designed and would recommend. Clear instructions for navigation even in the dark.

FinlandThere was really nothing to complain.
A very cosy place to stay. It looks amazing and they're giving a lot of attention to details. Even there was a shared bath room, it looked amazing. Vintage bath tube with shower. Just perfect. Bed was very comfortable and it was very warm. I was not freezing one single second. Really loved the stay and it would have been nice to be there longer.

United StatesThere are a lot of house rules to follow which will work fine for adult couples and solo travelers but there are several types of travelers which won't be allowed to stay.
Valhalla Yurts was a really lovely and unique accommodation for a reasonable price. Items offered for breakfast was generous and the whole place was super cozy and fun. The owners are super friendly and helpful as well!

CanadaBefore getting there I was worried about 2 things : 1 - the temperature inside the yurt : Iceland is quite cold and I was worried we would be freezing during the night. Turns out it wasn't an issue at all. There was a AC/heating unit inside the yurt that did an amazing job. There was also a fireplace and what looked like heated blanket, both of which were not needed as we stayed there during the month of June. The temperature was very comfortable and the host also made sure to check if we were OK. 2 - the bathroom situation : now, you cannot expect the Ritz-Carlton experience for the bathroom. It is quite "rustic". However, it was incredibly clean and overall a lot better than I could have expected. All and all, we had an amazing experience. There is nothing I can think of that was a letdown. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat.
We really loved our stay. The attention to details was incredible. Usually when the breakfast is offered, it can be quite disappointing but the breakfast here was amazing. The bed was very comfortable, the host was friendly and the experience was truly one of a kind. We also enjoyed the location as it is very close the the golden circle attractions. I would love to come back and watch the aurora borealis through the yurt's ceiling.

BulgariaIt is a bit tricky to find as Google Maps don't lear you there, but the hosts provide a detailed map with step-by-step instructions. The bath/WC is outside (obviously). Be careful when entering the bathtub as the curtain is not that stable (I'm so sorry for breaking it 🫢🙈), but the host repaired it in an instant. 😊
The most unique and wonderful stay that we had in Iceland! We stayed for 1 night and had real luck that it was available. The yurt is mega cozy, romantic, warm and comfortable. It has everything you might need (contrary to one might think when you see a "tent"). The hosts live nearby and are so welcoming and kind, we're ever so grateful. An absolute must-visit for couples!

SwitzerlandAll fine
Very beautiful experience. The yurt provided a lot of comfort for a stay in the nature. It also provided enough space and plenty of options inside and outside for all activities, meals, enjoying the woodstove, and so on. The small terrace was also greatly appreciated for the breakfast. We also enjoyed the unobtrusive behaviour of the hosts.
