Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomOnly one quite soft pillow was available, would have preferred two! In fairness, we didn’t ask at reception if a second pillow was available.
Basic but clean and bright room with en suite bathroom. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room was nice but no milk, only creamer in a packet (does seem to be the standard in Iceland). Beautiful location, with lovely view from our window to the mountains. Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast had a good variety of options. The restaurant was open for dinner whilst we were there and served lovely food, we enjoyed the burger and the lamb shank.

SpainI sincerely believe that the relation price-quality isn’t equivalent. What you pay isn’t reflected to the installations, as for example, our bathroom was smelling to humidity and the tiles of the floor were moving. Also, the breakfast is very limited. Looking at the big picture, yes, the hotel is nice but for what you pay I believe that some certain main installation revisions should be taken into consideration.
The location is great as you are surrounded by mountains and if you are lucky enough you can see the northern light. Also, it’s very close to Skaftafell and all the base camps of excursion organizations. Finally, the dinner was good, and actually, better than the breakfast.

United States of AmericaOur room was rather narrow, but 4 beds fit! The property has a wide pasture right out front, which seems great for Auora viewing, but lights on the property were rather bright at night, requiring a walk away from lights.
Location for glacier adventures the following day is good, about a 30 minute drive. We always like "breakfast included," especially when needing an early start to the day. Breakfast included coffee, tea, juice, bread (and muffins, donuts), sausages, beans, yogurt, cereal, boiled eggs, cucumber, cheese and deli ham slices. I might be forgetting something!! Beds were comfy. Our room had direct access to outside, which was nice for late night peeks at aurora. The room setup was fun with 2 twins and a king, each with their own individual bedside table, lamp and plug.
