Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesThis location was so cozy and lovely. The staff is more than helpful and always went the extra mile. Breakfast was grand with lots of options. The dinners were beyond delicious and presented beautifully.

SpainBar and restaurant services are limited, something to keep in mind when planning meals.
Perfect location surrounded by nature and away from the city, there are snowshoes and skis that can be used for free. Some activities, such as snowmobiles, have the starting point at the same hotel, since they share an adventure agency. https://adventurelapland.se/ Highly recommend some of the activities they offer.

United KingdomWe had a magical time at Máttaráhkká, the location is perfect being a short drive from Kiruna town centre (we even walked across the frozen lake into town once!) but it's far enough from light pollution to see the northern lights. Emma, Mikko and Mikko's mum are really lovely people who made us feel like home, and what a home the lodge was for the week we spent there. The rooms are warm, cosy and generally lovely, and the common area feels like your own living room in the wilderness. I thoroughly recommend the lodge to anyone who wants to go see the lights and have a great time above the Arctic Circle.

United KingdomEveryone working there was extremely friendly and welcoming. We were only there a few minutes before being invited to have some tea/coffee in front of a big log fire. The room was nice with a nice seating area on a mezzanine. Breakfast was great and we were able to try cross country skiing for free (we could also have taken some snow shoes out if we had been there for more than one night). To top it all off, after a nice dinner in Camp Ripan, we came back and decided to go for a quick walk in the surrounding area and happened to see the aurora almost immediately! Great place

FranceWe really enjoyed staying at the Mattarrahka Lodge. We got in late morning before the check-in time but our host managed to prepare our room so we didn't have to wait too long. The place is very cosy, confortable, nicely decorated and it makes us feel at home. Barbara cooked delicious meals and breakfast is also very good with a large choice of options. Mikka and his family are extremely nice and helpful. Thanks to Mikka, we booked dogsledding through Lapland Adventure and had the best time we could have hoped for. We highly recommend this place. My husband and I really a relaxing, peaceful and pleasant time and we would love to go back another time, possibly in summer! Thanks a lot Mikka!

The lodge has a beautiful vibe to it. Its secluded from the city so you can easily see the northern nights when the sky is clear, and thats such a plus. they have 24*7 coffee tea facilities which is so cool! Even the room is so beautiful.

A very homely feel, comfy beds and rooms, we had a wonderful dinner and received amazing service from staff, in particular Barbara who made our stay so much more enjoyable. Lovely buffet breakfast included in our package and location isn’t too far via car ride from town centre. We booked some spa time on the roof top and saw the northern lights! Really enjoyed our stay

United StatesThe only drawback to being able to see northern lights from your lodge is that you need to take a taxi to town.
