Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. 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 review scores we’ve received. We’re currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil, and North Carolina. For properties in these areas, 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 like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. 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 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):
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.
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...).

United States of AmericaThe fire alarm in one bedroom had a low battery and was beeping when we arrived. The manager said they would replace batteries, but they never did… which can be very dangerous. There’s also a bad smell of burning oil in one bedroom if the heater is on! And the two bedroom doors and bathroom door all open into each other in chaos- not great design
Beautiful cabin situated by a lovely river and nearby hiking trails. My mom and I stayed here and ended up seeing auroras BOTH nights. It was magical. We loved sitting on the porch for breakfast and the private sauna. For those guests who didn’t like the shower out in the sauna room- we actually PREFER it this way! Then you can take a cold shower after sauna-ing. It is intentionally designed as such!

SwitzerlandThe mattresses are a bit hard and there are no thick curtains that won't let the light through. The dinner in the Kota was good but too expensive.
Mika was a very friendly host, the cabin is very cute and clean. The view is beautiful, the cabin is conveniently located with ski resort and grocery store nearby. Mika was always close by, ready to help. The dinner in the beautiful Kota was very pleasant, we were the only ones there. Mika is a very friendly talkative host and a good cook.

United States of AmericaOur family of five just returned from staying here and we would certainly go back again. Everything was great. The hostess was very responsive with the questions I had before we left. The host picked us up at the airport and took us to the cabin. He took the time to talk us through everything about the surrounding area and discuss the activities we had scheduled in the coming days. They made sure we had a great stay. We owe our great vacation to their personal service! The cabin was also wonderful- it had everything we needed, was clean and warm and cozy. I can't say enough good things about this place and the host and hostess. The accommodation alone was worth a great rating and if you want a personal experience and like meeting local people- this is would be an amazing choice.

Everything was great. The Cabin was spacious and clean, and it was very comfortable staying there. There was a kitchen complete with cooking equipment, with plates, glasses, pots and pans, utensils, so you can cook your own meals and keep your costs down. There’s a coffee machine too. If you book airport transfers with them, they will take you to the supermarket first before proceeding to the Cabin so you can buy everything you need. The hosts Jaana and Mika were very kind and gracious. They even allowed us to check out late for free when they learned that our flight would leave at 6:00pm. If you’re thinking of spending time in Lapland, stay at Polar Aurora Cabins. You will not regret it.

GermanyThe prices for activities and meals are high, but I guess this is quite normal for Lapland.
Cosy decor, good location next to the National Park, warm rooms, lovely Owners who kindly let us check in early and gave us great hiking advice. Amazing husky safari with a private pupp visit! The kitchen has everything one could need to cook simple meals. We also saw auroras just above the roof of our cabin!

MalaysiaWe loved the clean comfy cabins which were cozy and well equipped. Janna and Mika are excellent hosts. We couldnt reccomend Polar Aurora Cabins any better! Frankly they are way better then the commercial accomodations out there and offer a ‘Home Away From Home’ experience. They make a perfect team and run the cabins like clockwork.

United Arab EmiratesWe loved everything, it’s just worthwhile to know that the costs of transfers can add-up so it’s worth factoring that in the budgeting of guests.
Our stay in Polar Aurora Cabins was one of the highlights of our trip to Lapland! The cosy cabin is just magical with its roaring fire to retire in front of after a day of snowy adventures, and wooden ladder to an attic room for the kids! We started our days with a Finnish sauna - (complete with rubbing ourselves with snow!) and a coffee on the terrace. The kitchen is very well equipped so we were able to keep down our costs by cooking our meals (although other guests raved about the food prepared by Miika and Jaana in the Kota!). The kids had a blast making friends and sledging in the surrounding forest. The cabin is well out of the village, so it feels totally secluded, but of course, close enough to make visits to the supermarket. We arranged our transfers from the airport, to the supermarket and to our next accommodation with Miika, who was always on hand to help us with anything we needed during our stay. We also booked the husky experience through Polar Aurora Cabins and it was sensational! All in all, we had a fantastic experience - you won’t regret booking your stay here!

A different world here. Small place with few cabins, beautiful surroundings, nature and snow. Good experience to stay here than normal hotels. You may see reindeers if you are lucky. Host was nice and helpful. Very efficient to solve any problems and answer queries. Well equipped kitchen. Unfortunately we didn't see any aurora during our stay. Quiet place and good for long walks. Make sure that you bring enough food and drinks for your stay. Also some first aid stuff, just in case. The amenities and restaurants are quite a distance. Taxi is very expensive here.
