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.).

The host has been absolutely wonderful. Very helpful and proactive as the situation was uncertain because of the weather.

PolandThe hot tub is avaliable only on summer season. We booked few days before and were a bit dissapointed that it is not avaliable yet, but the owner offered alternatives immediately.
The place is hidden in the end of the fjord. The atmosphere there was magical! If you are looking for place to hide from crowds of tourists it is definetly right choice! Communication with the owner was excellent and she even came to visit us to check if all is ok when we arrived :) + Doggo lovers can find new furry friends there!

This is such an amazing place… the fjord, the little house, the hot tub and the very nice landlord. We enjoyed our three days very much. The only thing to consider is that getting there is about a 1 hour drive on a rather well behaved gravel road. So we would highly recommend staying at least two or three days such that you can profit from this fantastic little house. We would come back anytime.

United StatesOnly feedback I’d give is having shampoo/body wash wall mounted in the shower. We didn’t pack much thinking there would be toiletries at each location so we ended up using hand soap to wash off with. Nothing big but would be a great help.
By far our favorite place to stay in all of Iceland!! The drive to the cabin was a blast!! My teenage boys loved the hot tub after a long hike up the mountain. The grill came in handy and kitchen was fully stocked. Beds were super comfortable. Loved everything about this place. The view is majestic!!

SpainIf you are looking for something different this is your place. A really quiet place with no tourists and wonderful views. The way to arrive is an off-road and you need approximately 1h to go across 30km but it is really worth it because the surroundings are really beautiful. Having a 4x4 is not mandatory but I really recommend it to arrive. The cabin was perfect for 2 people and is fully equipped. It also has a hot tube outside that was a must to relax at the end of the day with great views to the fjord.

GermanyThe road IS tricky.....
It's a beautiful, cozy hut with breathtaking views into the mountains and over the fjord. So quiet and peaceful. Fully equipped kitchen, cute bathroom and a good mattress to sleep like a baby. The owners are very friendly and were extremely helpful to me on the first morning after arrival.... Also they gave me a nice hint to a hike above the hut, which was very nice. The beauty of the setting is definitely worth riding the not so nice unpaved road. Just take it easy, it's only 32km 😏 with great views.

AustraliaCurtains were not blockout in the loft - so hard to sleep up there. Shower tiles old and chipped.
Great views - right on the Fjord. Hot tub was perfect. Views on the way in and out were amazing, but two nights would be better than one, given the distance in.

United KingdomLots of spiders in the bathroom! Don't know where they kept coming from! Long drive to get anywhere, so decided to stay put and enjoy the surroundings rather than spend lots of time in the car.
Amazing location and views, private hot tub, spotlessly clean, warm and cosy. Had everything we needed even though the space was small. Easy communication with Margret. Lovely walks from the door - went berry picking, and walked down to the church and harbour all with a very friendly dog! The drive down the gravel road to get there is stunning. Even saw the Northern Lights on our first night in the hot tub.
