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...).

The breakfast was lovely, the room was very comfortable, including the beds and had a good bathroom. Great views onto the mountains and the park below. Loved walking out of the hotel into the town area, with shops, cafes and restaurants within walking distance. Good transport connections too.

United KingdomThe twin beds were comfortable but very narrow. We had the evening buffet one night and although the food was good, the potatoes and vegetables were only Luke-warm.
Excellent location and a lovely view of the harbour from our room on the sixth floor. Breakfast was excellent, with a huge choice of food, which was well presented and of very high quality. The staff were very helpful and answered my questions before arrival promptly.

SingaporeToo expensive $400 per night
We stayed at this hotel for 5 nights in March 2024. The hotel is situated smack in the middle of Tromso town and very close to the fjords water. All our “attraction pickups” were with 2 mins walk from the hotel. From the airport there is an express bus that drop you very close to the hotel. The ticket price is 125 NOK. For two travellers it makes sense to take a taxi to the hotel and the cost is approximately 250 NOK. We had a nice large room that accommodated 3 adults with a lot of additional space to live around. The bathroom was very large with an enclosed shower. Our Deluxe room had the view of the fjord. The breakfast spread is elaborate and the there is enough seating area for the guests. The hotel also provides a dinner buffet in week nights. We did not avail of it as Tromso has an assortment of high-end restaurants. All in all a nice hotel which is well located. However, the room prices are quite steep but that could be because we stayed around equinox when solar activity for viewing Northern lights is quite high.

United KingdomThe room was a little smaller than expected. Not the best view. Especially when the giant cruise liners come in and block the most beautiful view on the first day. Nobodies fault though I guess.
Location was perfect. Bus stops close to get around, restaurants on the doorstep. The breakfast buffet was exceptional. Everything you need there!

ThailandIt's very hard to park for luggage drop. Reception is not so helpful to where we should park just for a quick drop without getting a ticket. We are a group of 8 people and have elderlies in our group, so it's not the best way to park in city parking and walk with luggage to the hotel.
Nice Room. Great Location in the city. Superb breakfast.

AustraliaThe rooms are small and dated but are clean and comfortable. Only one of the bedsides has a charging point. The receptionist forgot to mention that breakfast is from 8am-11am on weekends only, so we missed out on breakfast on the Monday because it closed at 10am without us realising (the breakfast staff were lovely and did offer to make us some toast).
Excellent location- right in the city centre, a very short walk (less than 5 minutes) to the pick up points for most tour buses. The Airport Express bus drops off in front of the hotel and picks up in a street nearby the hotel (you can pay for the bus ticket when you get on the bus, no need to pre-book). Exceptional buffet breakfast with a large selection of hot and cold foods and drinks.

United States of AmericaThe floors above the lobby are dated and could use a little updating. Unfortunately, the elevator didn't work for most of my stay which is unfortunate as I was staying on the 4th floor. Nothing that would prevent me from staying there again though.
Room was tiny, but I booked a single room, so it wasn't a huge surprise. The main floor of the hotel is comfortable and welcoming. The staff was always friendly and accommodating. The main pros of the hotel for me were the central location and the breakfast. The location is right in the middle of Tromso center, near the water, tons of restaurants, shops and bus stops convenient to the airport and other destinations. The breakfast was fantastic - tons of options and well organized.

United KingdomKettle, tea/coffee making facilities in the room. TV could not be watched from the bed.
There are no budget hotels in Tromso, so I booked this one. Perfect location close to the harbour and busy town, very quiet and comfortable. Small room was nicely decorated, modern and stylish, clean, good powerful shower in the bathroom. Beautiful view of the snowy church from the large window. Lovely friendly staff, reception busy but very efficient. The breakfast is very good, lots of choice, delicious, the breakfast staff were so lovely and friendly, coming round to top up our coffees, very smiley and a nice positive energy for the morning. I do recommend this hotel, perfect location, great staff, would stay here again!
