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 StatesThe room and the hotel itself is so cozy and cute. The restaurant was very very good as well. The spa is worth the 2,000 ISK in my opinion - it was super clean and great way to relax from a long day of driving.

IcelandThe only complaint I have is that there were no eggs for breakfast. I did ask about it and then they hadn't received eggs that morning, and were really sorry about it. I guess there is no store in Egilsstaðir that is open early enough that they could have sorted it, so it really wasn't their fault. It did spoil my breakfast experience though.
Staff really friendly and the hotel in total very welcoming.

LithuaniaWe reached this hotel in the evening, after hours on road it was our safe and comfortable place. Thanks a lot to reception guy (we forgot to ask the name), he was really nice and gave us some advises about visiting places around, also shout out to Austėja, thanks for recomendations, we saved a lot of time during next day trip to Reykavik. One more thing to mention, this hotel will stay in my memory for the all life, as the first Nothern light was captured here! Breakfast was perfect! Best regards from griup of lithuanians! 💚

United KingdomThe Spa is only available at an extra charge, it would be nice to include this in the room rate. There was no mini bar. The portion size of the starters was completely out of proportion. A smoked beetroot starter was just a few teaspoons (more like a pre starter) where as beef carpaccio was a full plate of food (like a main course) . My lamb main had a nice flavour but was unfortunatly not cooked fresh (reheated). This did not distract from the fact the meal was still good, but its the little things that make it great!
The staff on the front desk and in the restaurant were friendly and proffessional, our room was a good size with a comfortable bed. The public spaces were all clean and well kept, including the lounge and spa. The location is great for exploring the lakes area and visiting Stodhvarfjordurhe the local port. The restaurant served some good well cooked food with attentive service in a pleasant dinning room that also doubles up as a breakfast room. This hotel offered excellent value for money and I would highly recommend a stay here.

AustriaThe Spa Area is not for free - you have to pay for it. We were very disappointed as there was only one sauna and one pool with pretty dirty water! If it's for free it would be OK but if you have to pay an extra amount for this it is not worth it!
