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 KingdomRoom was a bit small, and bed wasn't great, but this didn't affect our overall experience.
Very clean room, if not the biggest, and bed flopped down at both ends. Great shower, bedroom with real character, and the location was perfect, right in the middle of town. Breakfast was plentiful, varied and sumptuous.

KenyaThe room was cold - they could have switched the heater on before we got there. But maybe there’s a safety issue with doing that.
It was a good place to stop over for the night upon landing in Oslo and flying out of Torp AP the next day.

United KingdomSome of the interior design looked a bit cheap/tacky… Not sure the purple soft furnishings work or the lampshades with glass beads work in the bedrooms… If you’re a period hotel, choose period fabrics!!
Breakfast was amazing - though GF bread/crispbread options a little limited…

AustriaAll was fine. Bathroom could be a bit nicer.
It is a hotel, which has it's own style and this style is consistent. It makes it a nice hotel, if you like the style, but one can see, that the hotel is being upkept, but slightly aged ;-) Hotel has it's own parking lot, which saves you EUR 30 or a hassle with parking lots and tickets.

IcelandThere was one thing that was problem there was one of the staff working late shift in reception in Hotel, the person didn’t talk English nothing at all, it was very hard to talk and communicate with that person to get a ticket for the car on the parking space outside but we found another person working for the hotel that helped us out.
The location of the Hotel was really amazing, it was in the center of Sandefjord and couple minutes from the mall.

United KingdomThe lack of a welcoming smile on reception when we arrived - he must have been having a bad day! No lift.
We chose this hotel as it is only a short walk (10 mins) to/from Sandefjord railway station. We had an early flight and wanted to be based closer to Torp Airport. Sandefjord is only 1 stop on the train, there is a very regular service to the airport and onwards to Oslo. The airport shuttlebus waits at Torp Sandefjord station to transfer travellers to the terminal. Train tickets can be bought on the VY app and this includes the shuttlebus fare, (tickets can also be bought on the train, but there is and extra charge for this). Breakfast at the hotel was served early enough for us to comfortably catch the train. The breakfast selection was excellent and the breakfast room felt elegant. This is an older hotel with plenty of character and old world charm, (not bland and grey like many others).

United KingdomI know Norway is a very expensive country but I felt the cost was too much. The outside of the hotel wasn't cleaned everyday which was disappointing, it doesn't give a favourable impression to first time visitors.
The hotel is right in the centre. The room was on the smaller side but clean and comfortable. Good breakfast in the morning, bathroom and toiletries of a high quality.
