How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Breakfast is very complete and tasty. Food is very fresh and it is very nice they provide the pastries leftovers for free after breakfast hours, in the main lobby. Despite of being a small room, I enjoyed it because the space was well designed for all the appliances to fit it.

Room was quite quiet but work going on in the opposite building and people made a lot of noise in the corridor in the early hours of the morning If you came for breakfast after 8am there were no seats left.
You get a clean comfortable room every time at Thon. The breakfast was very busy but the staff kept the food fresh and well stocked up.

Breakfast buffet was much beyond my expectation, especially various kinds of bread. The room was a bit small, but very comfortable. The location is about 5 minute walk from Oslo Central Station, and Opera House, Munch Museum, National Theater are within walking distance. Very convenient for sightseeing and shopping.

During my stay there was construction outside which started very early in the morning -- temporary issue of course. Room was tiny. Fine for me, but just something to be aware of. No room to do your morning yoga next to the bed.
Excellent breakfast! Couldn't have wished for more. Great location making the centre walkable and other places easily accessible from the railway station. Kind and welcoming staff.

There was nothing we disliked. The hotel doesn't have much charm or character, it is functional. More a convenient base than a destination in itself.
The breakfast was spectacular. The staff were good-humoured and helpful, and the hotel itself is modern and comfortable.

We found the bathroom a little small, but was OK for 3 nights. Bed was comfortable, a little on the narrow side but again OK for 3 nights. Building works below, but didn't actually disturb us as we were out a lot of the time!
Lovely clean room, great location. Check-in was very straightforward. As others have said, the breakfast is fabulous!

Actually, the shower was too small. I don't favour luxury and a lot of wasted space when travelling in work but this cabin really was too small. I could hardly turn around:) A bit annoying sounds from the nearby construction site but I understand that this is maybe not in the full control of the hotel.
It was a good stay clean and nice and functional and decent price.

Close to station and central busses. Breakfast was superb, great free coffee in the lobby was an unexpected bonus. Would stay again… also great Italian restaurant just across the street so popular you had to queue for a table but well worth it.
