Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

CanadaThe hotel has a fully equipped restaurant kitchen to use for cooking your meals. The dining and lounge areas are full of windows overlooking the water and mountains that surround you. There are free laundry facilities, billiards and parking. They even offer kayaks for guests to use on the water across the street from the lodging.

United StatesLiterally nothing!
This property surprised me in a very pleasant way, and exceeded my expectations! When I booked it, the property looked a bit understated, and I knew it was a self check in. What the Northern Comfort Inn may not show as much on the outside, it makes up for on the inside with a very excellent property. First of all, the view across a lake and up to a mountain was stunning. You could not ask for a better view. The self check in was very easy, and the hotel was spotless. There were a lot of maps and local information which I really appreciated, as we needed some guide information for our trip. There was an open kitchen available where you could either prepare a meal or keep your food in a freezer or refrigerator. That was extremely helpful and something many properties do not have. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. I had hurt my back earlier in the day and the bed was a delight. They had an extra charging cord set up which was another extremely helpful detail they had that many hotels do not. They were near a very nice playground area if you're traveling with children, and the town is gorgeous. Would LOVE to stay here again!

The staffs are very nice. The property is super clean. I am very impressed with the commercial tableware clean system. All the tableware are clean and in good condition. The shared kitchen not only has a lot of kitchenware including knife/peeler/scissor, but also has salt/pepper/cooking oil. The shared kitchen also has refrigerator and a good coffee machine. This property has a large common area: sitter room and dining area. The rooms are clean and furniture are in good condition. There is a lake nearby and this property offers kayak for free.

United StatesI love the free coffee and tea from this hotel. Nice friendly staff. The hotel sits in front of a lake. Boating and kayaking are free for guests but it was too cold for us. Free laundry service was definitely a great plus for our 18 day trip. We spent 2 nights here to go to Grímsey which was very convenient because it is a short 20 minutes drive to Dalvík to catch the ferry. Walking distance to the public pool and sauna. Beautiful Mountain View all around. The very best part was the free use of their professional kitchen. I was so happy to make some meals there!!! Great value and can’t wait to come back!!!

The accommodation was easy to find and easy to check in. The accommodation had great cooking facilities and plenty of room in the shared refrigerator. They also had a complimentary coffee, tea, and cocoa machine. The room was quiet. It was small but comfortable.

NetherlandsThe pillow is too high.
We arrived earlier, so the staff made sure our room was made ready. Nice room, comfy bed, beautiful sitting area to dine in (no restaurant, but make yourself). The hotel really goes above and beyond, they're so customer friendly oriented! They offer so many free things to use, for example: They have a pooltable you can use for free, even kayaks! You can grab fresh towels whenever you want and if you want new linen on your bed you only need to ask.. Also free coffee machine.
