How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewBeauriful hotel & Staff was very nice, and the property was pet friendly. Large fenced in yard and easy walk to the fjord. The lab was absolutely delicious. The room was lovely with heated bathroom floor. I especially loved the dog bed, dog bowls and even dog treats with note in the room, very welcoming.
The set meal looked very lovely, but quite pricey. Even when I purchased a portion of the meal, I could not believe how expensive it was, especially the desert which was small and overpriced. The bedroom was a little dark, but doable and the shower required a little effort to get out of due to the shower doors, but it was a minor inconvenience.

Verified reviewA truly beautiful building, but not a great hotel. Some very helpful staff members but also some incompetent ones.
I paid for an upgrade to a Seaview Room, this room had no effective Blockout for the midnight sun and was incredibly stuffy when we first entered it. After we wedged the doors open (see photo) for a few hours it had cooled down to almost a tolerable temperature (which is pretty high for Australians). The hotel has no air-conditioning in its rooms. It is such a beautiful building. It seems to be focused on events/functions/weddings. The comfort of the rooms does not justify the price tag in any way shape or form. I have been promised a refund for my “upgrade” but that has not yet come through (I will edit my review if it does). The manager agreed to move us back to my original garden facing room, which was much more comfortable though still did not have air-conditioning.

Verified reviewExcellent location, close to the sea and to hiking trips. Beautiful surroundings, and a very well-preserved building. Worth a visit just to look at it and enjoy the garden, but well worth staying at. Very kind and helpful staff.
Not a problem with the hotel per se, but the hiking roads around the area are not all well prepared, and require some dexterity to move about.

Verified reviewExtremely accomodating and pleasant staff at the hotel and restaurant. For instance had to call and move our dinner reservation because our drive from Sweden took longer than expected and they moved us even though they were quite busy in the restaurant. The food in the restaurant was really very delicious and the view from the restaurant and also from the pavillion where they serve breakfast was beautiful.
We thought that the hotel would be in a more secluded location, but it's surrounded by other housing complexes and homes on all sides. This was not a problem, it just wasn't quite what we expected. We also had a problem with our booking - we had booked a family room, but for some reason this wasn't showing up correctly in the hotel's system, and they did not have any more family rooms. We received two double rooms instead which was also fine for us in particular as we were only staying for 1 night.
