Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomThere was parking but this was dependent on other users visiting the church so a space is not guaranteed, but was free. There was no tea/coffee making facilities in the room.
The location was beautiful and close to main part of city with a lovely view of the church. Decor was very stylish and very up market. Staff friendly and happy to help.

FinlandThe bathroom was so small as to be uncomfortable for me, a small person. The room is extremely expensive for what it is, but that seems to be true of all hotels in Iceland.

LithuaniaTV/remote wasn’t working and the hairdryer “in the room” was of a “go ask at the reception in the other building” variety. Not a dealbreaker for a short stay, but can be an issue for a longer one.
Basic hotel for a basic price, but in a great location!

United KingdomThe rooms were definitely not sound proofed! A light sleeper would do well to bring ear plugs. Sound sleepers should be fine though.
Great Location in centre of Reykjavik. Opposite the cathedral, so it was easy to find, from anywhere in the city.

AustraliaI arrived quite early (admittedly was 7am) and was told my room was ready but would have to pay an extra fee (not insignificant) to access it. I've not had this happen before, when the room is available, but perhaps this was standard practice in Iceland. They did accept my luggage and stored it securely and with care so all was fine. :) No matter however, the room and staff were lovely which made my Iceland experience all the better!
Friendly staff Given free upgrade unexpectedly and recieved larger room Amazing views of the cathedral, what a treat!

The location of the hotel is perfect. Bus stop 8 is just across the Church square. The bed (queen) was very comfortable. Only stayed one night but was value for money. Tea and Coffee available near reception, and invited to have as much as we wanted, when we wanted.
