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...).

DenmarkShampoo and soap were empty and didn't get a refill the second day.
I was pleasantly surprised by the room, it clearly has been renovated a short time ago and was nicely designed and a good size. Additionally I had a great view of the water! Location could not have been better as you got access to the famous hike literally behind the hotel and had the best views of Ålesund. Breakfast had a great selection and parking was right underneath the hotel with direct access to the rooms, at additional cost.

AustraliaThis a is very good 4 star hotel in the main part of town and right near the park. The hotel is new and very busy with lots off tour groups and families. I was upgraded to the top floor with a nice view over the hill and lookout and also the quieter side. The windows opened which was fantastic and the room I had was two rooms with beautiful big windows, perfect to watch for the aurora!

United KingdomIt was a bit weird that there was no kettle in our room on arrival. I had to ask for one and was told there were none available - even though I had seen some in a room for cleaning equipment. The next day, our mugs were removed from the room so we had to ask for then again! We found this odd as there were tea and coffee making facilities in the other Skandics we used. No gym or sauna area open during our stay. Also breakfast was very busy with tour groups.
Choice at breakfast - there was interesting apple porridge and salmon latkes. Nice lounge area on ground floor which I used as a quiet space to read. It’s a really good location for going up Askla. Plenty of parking on the streets nearby.

GermanyThe "Economy" Twin Room has two beds, but they are actually connected with a single big mattress, which therefore acts as a double bed. The bed and mattress are big enough to accommodate tow people but this is not as twin room as I expected.
Good location. Easy access to the city center and harbor area. The Vy bus from/to the airport stops right in front of the hotel. The breakfast is amazing with good enough space to accommodate all the guest wishing to have breakfast there.
