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 KingdomRoom 7 didn’t have a single bed so kids had to share (not as advertised on booking.com) and the outside lights left blazing into room all night which was odd and made it impossible to look for northern lights (only a problem for that room).
Great spot in the hills, easy to drive to Vik and local sights. Nice breakfast and large clean comfy rooms.

United KingdomWe had misunderstood that the restaurant linked to the hotel was not on site and we had to drive to it - but we had a lovely meal, which, despite being on the pricey side, was very nice.
Lovely welcome and service, sweet little hotel, and a GREAT breakfast with fresh bread in the morning! Happy with the room etc.

United StatesVery little. The only downside we saw to the hotel was that it was a few minutes out of town, so we had to drive to dinner. That’s hardly something they could do anything about. The peacefulness of the place made up for that, though.
Occupancy was low during the off season, so the place was very quiet and dark at night - great for sleeping. The room was very big and clean and the staff was very friendly and accommodating when we met her at breakfast.

Lovely small hotel with very sweet staff . My group of four felt very comfortable and relaxed at Volcano hotel. Breakfast with cooked eggs included. Evening meal available if pre booked, we ate one evening and the food on offer was very good. We were even lucky enough to see The Auroras from the hotel!

United KingdomBathroom felt a bit dank and was a lot colder than the rest of the room, but all in all we were there for a night and it more than served our needs.
We arrived just as a full blown arctic storm was getting underway, we were grateful to be able to check in and take shelter. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, the food was fantastic - possibly the best lamb I've ever had, and we rode out the storm.

LOVELY customer service by staff. Super friendly!!! Incredible breakfast included- scrambled eggs were amazing! Location is great, 10-15 min out of Vik, so get the vibe of being out of the business of a town. Beautiful viewing of skies- Northern lights if lucky. Room huge and comfortable

United StatesThe Volcano Hotel is just outside of Vik. A good spot to see Northern Lights as it's setback from the Road. It was quiet and the buffet breakfast was convenient in the communal dining area. The tables were plentiful and clean. A person was onsite and they were efficient at restocking breakfast offerings. I think the hotel was pricey (as all things in Iceland are). We paid $206 for one night - November 6, 2023. Other than that, it met our needs for a one night stay.
