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.).

GreeceThe room we stayed at was very outdated aesthetically, which was not reflected in the accommodation's promotional pictures in this platform. A renovation would greatly improve the experience. A bit pricey for the current room quality, compared to our other accommodations in Iceland.
Common rooms are very nice, breakfast room has great views and the breakfast itself is great. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Late check-in options were very convenient after a long day driving.

United StatesLots of construction going on across the street. The staff could be a bit more helpful. There was no one as the front desk when we checked in or checked out. Had to wait around for someone to return.
Basic hotel that has what you need for an overnight stay. Rooms were clean but a bit dated. The location is great if you plan to explore the food hall in Selfoss.

Czech RepublicWi-fi in a standard room was not the best one. In the second one worked well though.
We stayed in this hotel 2 times: on our way to East Iceland and then on our way back. First time we had standard room, with view on a parking lot. The second time they upgraded the room and we had renewed room with the river view. The first room was hotel classics: wooden colors, carpet and a feeling it was a bit outdated. In the second one there was a lot of light and it was renovated not long time ago. In both rooms beds were comfy. There was a TV, a mini fridge and a safe box. Included breakfast was ok to start the day.

Switzerland-
Great hotel, friendly staff, parking included, clean and with a very good breakfast. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed a great nights sleep. We got upgraded to a bigger room upon arrival which we enjoyed as we were travelling with our son. As we only stayed one night we did not have time to try the hotel restaurant, as we already had plans to try the foodhall across the street.

Great stay with a fantastic view. It's overlooking Ölfusá River and the suspension bridge (Ölfusárbrú) which is very beautiful. The room is spacious with large windows, clean sheets and a nice bathroom. The staff is friendly and warm, offering wake up service in case of northern light (which didn't happen but we did see it later during our trip). The breakfast was nice but nothing out of ordinary.

Near new shop development with food options and supermarket. This was great as traveling fast and needed to restock. Can also request Northern lights wake up call.
