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.).

QatarIt was perfect.
Aurora Collection was one of the best boutique hotels I’ve ever stayed at. The concierge was so amazing with coordinating activities and transporting me around. I love that there was a sauna installed in the bathroom as well and washing machine and dryer. The kitchen was fully equipped for nights I felt like staying in and the vibes are incredibly cozy.

United KingdomNothing springs to mind, everyone was super helpful.
The staff provided exceptional service throughout my stay, embodying professionalism and attentiveness. The car service exceeded my expectations, delivering convenience and efficiency. While breakfast offered a satisfactory experience overall, perhaps introducing a varied selection each day could enhance the dining experience for guests who appreciate diversity. However, personally, this minor detail did not detract from my enjoyment, though it could cater to those who value variety.

NetherlandsSome things didnt work (the shower head, water kettle) and it was VERY warm (probably the window heater that cant be turned off). Would probably also have been nice to have a restaurant for breakfast.
Very nice modern cabin, amazing staff that happily drove us around to the restaurant and for some aurora hunting. They also came to knock on our door to let us know there were auroras going on. The bedroom was very nice. We couldn't see the auroras from there, but it was very relaxing looking at the stars from our bed.

AustraliaWe would have appreciated a microwave in the room to heat some food up.
Amazing location and definitely one of those once in a lifetime bucket list type places. Staff were incredibly friend and very helpful. Included in the price is a curtesy drop off / pick up service between the accommodation in the town - you just message the staff when you'd like to be collected and they make it happen.

United KingdomSmall things… nowhere really to put your clothes in the room. Sometimes you are not sure who to text to take you places or pick you up. These are not major issues though at all. The place is amazing.
Where to start…. This place is amazing. It’s like being on another planet. We LOVED the location, right in the edge of the small town. Snow everywhere. Lovely hot tub. Really warm and cosy rooms with amazing views. We stayed in room 9 and it was almost perfect. The staff are brilliant and will drive you wherever you want to go. We saw amazing auroras, went snowmobiling and had a day snowboarding. It was all great fun and unforgettable. Tours are quite pricey but I think that’s Finland and not this hotel. If you want a long weekend get away somewhere completely different then you can’t go wrong with this place.

United KingdomNothing.
Everything. The location was perfect, sitting on a hill looking down on on the town of Saariselka. Beautiful views from our sky suite with extremely attentive staff who dropped us off at different restaurants every night and then picked us up at the end of the night at no extra charge. All the staff (Juuso and Ansko) went out of their way to make your trip memorable and I really felt that it was important to them that we squeezed everything out of our short visit. We only stayed for 3 nights, so seeing the Aurora was by no means guaranteed and the one night we did see them, worth the price of the trip alone, was thanks to Juuso and Ansko who woke us up as there was unexpected activity after we had given up and gone to bed!! The trips we had booked through The Aurora Collection Resort were great and worth every penny which were all delivered by the Northern Lights Village whose staff were so friendly and keen to give you a great experience. For us the best by far was the 10km Husky safari which will live long in the memory and the sauna and ice swim. This has been by far the most memorable trip and that is thanks to The Aurora Collection Resort and its wonderful staff.

New ZealandCan’t fault it!
The highlight of our time in Finland! Katri had booked us a table for Christmas Eve dinner which was lovely and took us there. The room was bigger than we thought and were able to leave our luggage in the hallway by the door. We had breakfast delivered both mornings and it was great. The bed was big and comfortable, the sauna was nice. Juuso was very helpful picking us up and taking us into town. The jacuzzi was amazing!! We were able to leave our bags at reception when we checked out and Juuso brought them into the village for us a few hours later and then took us to the airport for an extra fee. We didn’t see northern lights but a winter snow Christmas was unforgettable! There was also Netflix, Disney plus on the TV.
