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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

IrelandThe breakfast was amazing and with plenty of choices both savoury and sweet. The staff were very nice, friendly and it was easy to communicate in english. The firepit at the river was a lovely spot to wait for the northern lights

IsraelThe room was not big, but it had everything we needed and a window to the snowy back yard, frozen lake & forest.
We stayed at the hotel for 6 nights. The location out of town provided a quiet nature surrounding, but required transportation into town and back. I recommend that you book all activities from the hotel, which will save you lots of travel. The hotel feels very homey and intimate. The staff are very warm and helpful, and feel almost like family. Buffet breakfast was varied, though it was the same every day. I recommend the Metsahirvas especially for couples looking for a quiet homey place

United KingdomA great functional hotel - just out of the city so you have some space around you. The rooms were really clean and super comfortable beds. The family rooms are a great size and it’s lovely to have a Kitchenette. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved that it was out of the city and that Pure Lapland run their excursions from there. We also really enjoyed the sauna and ice dip activity. When we had to leave early the next day they prepared an amazing breakfast for us to take away without us even asking! A lovely touch.

BelgiumRoom is little when you stay a few days, not easy to manage with luggages. Pity the sauna time was at diner time, not easy to use it. Pity they don't use the fire place in the lobby, it would be nice to have a fire when having a drink.
Lovely hotel with history background and staff. Good situation to have a walk around. Nice breakfast and dinner.

SpainVery nice location, close to Rovaniemi, outside the city. Ideal to stay with children. Fire in the hall and closeness to the River with views and nature was perfect for our stay. You can make fire at a wooden refuge 100m from the hotel close to the river. Kids enjoyed the Skimobile ride! Very recommendable. Sauna available for guests (kids allowed) is a must do. Thank you Mikko for your kind hospitality. We will be back!

FranceA bit further from Rovaniemi than we expected
Great service and very friendly hosts, who were always very keen to help with our questions and specific asks including transport. Fantastic accommodation -lots of space in a spacious, modern and clean apartment by the lake. Unbeatable value for money. Nice buffet breakfast, with a broad variety of local specialties which gave us a flavor of the local specials.

GermanyOne of the best vacations 🤍 All the staff is very friendly and hospitable. The food is definitely a highlight with good and fresh variety for every day. Being also so close to the river (and far enough from the city) means that there’s a good chance to see the northern lights just by walking around the area. The organised tours were great, especially with the Huskys and the Finnish sauna experience with Ice bathing. The rooms are comfortable and cozy. We enjoyed the time a lot.

ItalyWe pretty much liked everything, if we have to pick something maybe the possibility to have different kinds of bed pillows and the lack of activities in the evening if you stayed in the hotel

CroatiaWe arrived late, so no reception, could enter only due to a phone call to a very friendly staff at 1AM (sorry, messaging doesn't work during flight).
It feels so Finnish, the living room was equipped with furniture of older design, but comfortable and gave this feeling of being on a holiday in a cabin. Nice view of the lake, simple to reach from the airport via rented car.
