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.).

CanadaAlthough there is a complete buffet breakfast, it was not as fresh nor as varied as we had the previous year at the same time. Breakfast items were missing even after their opening time.
The cottage was excellent with a well equipped kitchenette.

SwedenThe placement of the tv was very weird right by the headside of the bed which made it impossible to watch tv while laying down, you had to sit in the sofa and tilt your head. Maybe they could have used some form of extension and have the tv by the footside of the tv or in front of the sofa somehow. The parking should have been in front of the hut and not on the backside where you had no sight of it, we still put our car in the front where it bothered noone.
The room was very big and had all kitchen assesories and even a micro. There was even a sauna which was very nice and got warm quickly. The breakfast was also very good with lots to choose from. There was even a possibility to park right next to the room, unfortunately the parking space was in the back of the hut so we had no sight of the car. The hotel feels a bit dated but it is still in good condition.

NetherlandsThe food could have been a little better.
It’s a little paradise. Lots of stuff and activities to do. Santa Claus Village justifies its name to the T and yes we did meet and greet Santa :) It is close to the Santa pets place which is a much visit as well. It is on the Artic Circle which give you this surreal feeling. Unfortunately we couldn’t see the husky farm or do some activities like the reindeer sledge as we went in the month of May. But no regrets. We will come back again to see the Northern Lights and experience other wintery stuff :):)

Germanythe Santa Park does not have much to offer in Summer.... .. and a little bit funny to see Santa`s Home without Snow; the Restaurant is a little bit overprized and i have to say.. boring .. (sorry) .. not really bad .. you know what i mean .. almost everywhere you can see a message that in August the Party will go on ..
breakfast was good, room was excellent .. very chilly in may ... reasonably priced out of season; the Salmon Guy in his little tent was nice :)

ItalyYou need to walk 5 minutes to get to the breakfast room but it was ok.
Cottage was spacious and clean, and also with sauna. Great having interconnected apartments. Very nice room and great to be able to park car right outside. Excellent location to enjoy the Santa Claus village (day snd night).

GermanyWe didn't like the breakfast. We would have liked a greater variety of food. And the room was not lovely.
We loved our stay at the village! It was so lovely and we wish we stayed longer. Sweet little cottage: very clean and quiet. The village is definitely worth a visit!

BelgiumAs it is located in Santa Clause village, it is very busy and touristy but this is to be expected as you stay here. The breakfast was very busy and would love some more healthy options. Would recommend to stay here if you have kids
The cabin was cosy, clean and had everything we needed. Right in the middle of Santa Clause village. We even saw the northern lights!

NetherlandsThe location is perfect to enjoy the holiday village. It's good to visit when the cold is not that bad like what we did during Easter break. The all you can eat buffet is actually very good and we really liked it. I think that's the best value lunch there as the price is ok.

United StatesStaff never bothered to tell us that Snowman World was closing for the season the day after we arrived. So we were sad when we went to go inside the next morning and it was closed. The signs getting to our building were abysmal (10 minute walk from reception) and the map provided was not detailed at all. Most expensive public transportation we have ever paid in any of the countries we have visited. The sleds the hotel provides, when you can find one, all had big holes or cracks in them.
We stayed four nights and that was 3 nights too many. The room we had was spacious and came with a really nice sauna. They have a desk to book excursions, but we booked ourselves directly with the companies. Pick-up right in village is nice. And they do have a bus stop to take you into the city.
