How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

One tiny thing due to personal preference: bigger glasses during breakfast would be appreciated! I drink a lot of water during the morning meaning I had to take several trips just for water. The beds (single beds) were a bit slim but nothing major, good for kids and people who don't move a lot while sleeping (which is the majority).
We stayed for one night as we did not want to directly drive from Tromsø to Lødingen. Quick check in, nice staff, free coffee, tea and fruits in the hallway, nice library in the lobby (they have many encyclopedia britannica, which i found impressive). The breakfast was also good (a little bit gluten free and also lactose free alternatives were available). Bedrooms were as advertised.

Our rooms are in different building. The reception is a bit confusing upon check-in, as she asked to get everyone (8 of us) to be in the lobby in order to get the key cards. Then while calling and getting out of the van (not yet stepping in the lobby), she gave us the key cards anyway! That's so weird!
Good room size. Excellent breakfast. We did see northern lights just behind the hotel next to the river!

The suite was very spacious on 2 floors with a very large balcony. There is a tea, coffee and hot chocolate machine in the lobby with a cosy seating area.

a camper van sneaked in the middle of the night and plugged in to the electric charging right outside our room, and had their air con running all night (surprisingly hot night!), and then snuck out again this morning at 6.30. Ended up having very little sleep which was so annoying! Staff need to be aware of this type of thing for the comfort of their real guests!
great property, comfortable rooms, great breakfast, great deck to enjoy a beer and dinner with a view to the mountains!

The food in the restaurant is bad. It is actually cantine food, and expensive for what it is. I am kind of amazed at how bad the quality was considering how easy it would be to improve it. If you like all your food drowning in gravy, your potatoes as a mush and your vegetables cooked until they are a uniform shade of grey, you will enjoy it.
Very nice quiet and well equipped hotel. Good location to driving to a lot of day trip places. Very quiet rooms with proper solid doors, I really appreciated that. Spacious bathroom. The breakfast is absolutely excellent and frankly a highlight. There is an option to buy a make-yourself take away lunch with the breakfast ingredients, which I recommend. Very helpful staff. I enjoyed the hot free drinks, very good quality coffee.
