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 StatesNothing. But take note there is no elevator like many older hotels in Norway.
Cannot beat location and views (especially from the top suite) of Vikinghaug! It’s a stay to remember and an experience by itself. A historic building featured in Netflix’s show Rognarok. The staff is very friendly. Very clean. There is even a washer in our suite so we did some laundry. If you stay in Odda as a base for the Trolltunga hike, this location is an easy drive to it.

United StatesBasic amenities were lacking. For instance, no shampoo, conditioner, etc. Also, no coffee. At first we thought this might just be customary, but all of our other Norwegian accommodations provided these basic items.
Location was stunning. Host was very kind and helpful. The outside area was amazing and the views are unparalleled. Overall, a great place.

IsraelThe view from the cabin is awesome. It's located just above the fjord, and the views from the windows of both the kitchen and some rooms is extraordinary. I said to myself that if I had such views from the kitchen, I would have cleaned the dishes all day long. Also, we got a huge apartment, room for the kids, room for the parents, kitchen, toilets + bath + shower, dining room with a view, and a balcony.

AustraliaSadly despite its stunning location and beautiful exterior, the interior doesn't live up to expectations. The rooms are large and comfortable but furnishings were pretty standard (if not a little random - sofa in the bathroom? Odd metal and glass computer desk in the bedroom? etc)...none if it really matched.. The kitchen equipment/crockery were underwhelming though functional and noise reverberating through the wooden floors from above and stairs was an issue for us over the 3 days we stayed. In short, I couldn't help shake the nagging thought that whilst the outside looks and feels like a high-end hotel, sadly the interior feels more mid end hostel....shame as those views are really amazing!
Epic location, perched high in a hill between two fjords it has sweeping views of the water, mountains and waterfalls to the south and north over Odda and the fjord north. The wooden building itself is beautiful, large rooms, high ceilings and original features. With ample parking and comfortable garden/seating outside its a unique place.

United StatesWell it’s not so much of a dislike since the location is so beautiful but it is a bit of a walk if you need to access the bus station, groceries, and restaurants. there are buses that run in the day but often stop in the evening. just something to know if you are coming without a car!
The hosts were incredibly personal, thoughtful, and helpful. The location is beautiful, unmatched views of both Odda and the surrounding fjord. Incredibly great spot and spacious apartment.

United StatesThe dishes seemed really random/a hodgepodge of things thrown together. We also were told at 10pm that we were accidentally placed in the wrong apartment. We were planning to get up early the next morning to hike and had already unpacked, so having to repack and move everything that late at night was a bummer, but the apartment we were supposed to get was much nicer, so it worked out.
The views from our apartment were the best on our trip (besides being outside)! The apartment was huge and the beds were comfy. The host was friendly and we would definitely stay there again!
