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 dinner was awful. Wouldn’t recommend. The only tasty thing was bread with butter. There were just one option if a main and one salad.
The building of the hotel is very beautiful! Inside it’s old, but well kept! The rooms are quite stylish, but we expected more comfortable for a 5 stars hotel. Though we liked it.

United KingdomOur room was a bit dated, it seemed dark, and the view from the window was poor. The evening buffet meal choice was sometimes a bit disappointing. Scaffolding on the building to the front. We used the “Library” for coffee after dinner and it was a nice room but a bit chilly.
The staff were helpful and pleasant. Near to Vigeland Park which was good. In a nice and quiet area of Oslo. Comfortable bed. A good selection for breakfast.

United KingdomWe were paying for two quite expensive rooms but were also charged extra for having another bed for a child. Drinks from the bar were ridiculously expensive... why is this the case in Norway?
The 'Superior Room' booked for our family was a good size and quality, the standard double however was small, very ordinary and too narrow with access to the double bed only from one side...a bit awkward for guests of our advancing years. The food in the dining area was very good at breakfast, but a rather limited choice in the evening. It was all very professionally prepared. There were some pleasant seating areas. Coffee and tea from machines available free, The staff were all very pleasant and helpful.

The hotel is beautiful from the outside and very nice inside too. There is lots of comfortable seating in the lobby. The dinner and breakfast were included in our room rate and were really nice. The staff were very friendly. I was happy there was a carpark. The neighbourhood was quiet. I really recommend this hotel.

SwedenWe had a hard time figuring out how to set the air conditioner, it was either on really cold so we froze at night or it didn’t work at all. It also made noise in the evening. The air in the room was unusually dry so my partner got a nosebleed.
Beautiful building, a nice and orderly neighborhood, close to the tram, the parking fee was reasonable considering it’s Oslo. The food (breakfast and evening meal) were both very good and had a good selection. The room was small but clean and had a comfortable bed.

United KingdomIt was a bit far from the central bits of Oslo, but close to Fram museum, and a few others. A good location for a stay with kids.
The staff is very welcoming. I loved that there were 3 meals over 1-night stay, which makes life much easier when traveling with toddlers. The check-in was at 15.00 and there was a lovely station with waffles till 17, followed by the dinner at 18. The next morning we had a really good breakfast. I must say it's the best breakfast in a hotel I had. On top of that, the hotel is very charming.
