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.).

United KingdomVilla Waltti was a magical Villa in the woods when we arrived it was lit up with lanterns and Christmas decorations inside which instantly got us into the Christmas spirit. The hosts we super friendly and helpful with local advice and let us know when the Northern Lights were visible in the area so we could be sure to see them. The Villa was comfortable and cosy with everything you would need.

Fantastic villa in a stunning location. Close enough to the town to be able to get to all amenities easily but still feels in the wilderness. A short walk to the fantastic nearby reindeer and husky farm.

SingaporeOn a honeymoon with my wife and newborn in Europe, 5 countries, 10 accommodations and I have to say Villa Waltti is the best among all. Owners Eero and Mari treated us sincerely. They care for our well-being and comfort everyday. Also, their house is exceptionally beautiful and comfortable with indoor and outdoor sauna. Location is extremely good, 5min drive to Apukka viewing point to catch the aurora, and Eero and Mai will help us keep a lookout.

NetherlandsThe only thing that could have been better was one of the beds. One bedroom had a small two person bed, although the bed was comfertable, it was a bit too small.
It was a beautiful and quiet house. The host was super helpfull and responded quick. We didn't understand the pizza oven, she explained it quickly and very well. The sauna was great, and the suroundings were beautiful. The house was near the 'big' road, but you didn't hear anything. I would recommend this house to anyone!

Our experience in Villa Wältti has been perfect. When we arrived, all the way to the cottage was decorated with candles and when we entered the house there was an old radio playing Christmas music. Just a dream. The heating system was already on, something we really appreciated. We felt at home from the very beginning. The cottage has everything you need and it is beautifully decorated. It is five minutes driving from Santa Claus Village. Close enough for going there daily and far enough to enjoy nature peacefully. There is a reindeer and husky farm nearby. The owners checked on us several times to see if we needed something or to recommend some activities. I am recommending this cottage to anyone coming to Santa Claus Village. Thank you for everything.

United KingdomNothing at all from the hosts. Unfortunately Booking.com charged me twice for the stay in error, which I am still trying to resolve weeks later but Eero the host even tried to help with this for us too, absolutely above and beyond!
The Villa was beautiful, just what we had hoped for and more, well equipped for our needs, and the hosts were incredible. The little personal touches were much appreciated. The beds were so comfortable, and the Villa was lovely warm and welcoming after a long day in the snow. Our little girl loved her room during her stay, and the saunas were loved by us. Such a cosy villa we absolutely loved it and can not wait to return! Close to all the attractions, and we loved our woodland walks to see the huskies and reindeer at the nearby farm.

It was a wonderfull stay! The place is close to the centre and Santa village, the house is clean and it has all the comforts you have at home. When you get to the house from a day of fun, there are a fireplace and 2 sauna’s indoor and outdoor waiting tot you. It’s clean and really cozy. Price wise It’s probably the best value for money concidering that a lot of the hotels in the neighbourhood a wat more expensive. I would definitely recommend Villa Wältti to all. kind regards, Yoran

Villa is situated in the wood not far from reindeers’ and huskies’ farm, so we could walk with great pleasure breathing fresh air and watching the animals everyday. The house is big and have plenty of open space. In the middle of the living room there is a fireplace which is wood burning stove from the other side where you can bake pizza ( I saw such an interesting design for the first time in my life). The pillows and mattresses are so comfortable that you understand that you can stay in bed till lunchtime. Big TV and good Wi-Fi and very comfortable armchair are the things you need to watch cartoons with the family in the evening! There are two saunas. One is outside another is in the house. Also there is a barbecue place where we cooked very tasty meat. The owner of the villa is very hospitable and helpful, always keeps in touch and answers all the questions! He is one of the best host I have ever met!
