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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

BelgiumThe windows were facing into the main interior of the hotel and did not open, so no fresh air into the room.
Breakfast was excellent, all the necessary dietary choices easily available. Lots of variety, fresh and clean facility.

United StatesThis felt like a standard hotel. The designed was a little dated, but the room was clean. Nothing that particular stood out beyond location.
Our stay at the Scandic was just a short stop between Inari and Helsinki. We selected this hotel because it was the closest to the Hertz car rental, where we needed to drop off our car. The room was clean, the breakfast was good, and the location was conveniently located between the main walking area and the train station.

AustraliaVery happy with this hotel
Reception staff were extremely helpful giving advice about issues such as things to see in the area, and assisting with wifi access. The rooms were clean, comfortable and roomy with large comfortable beds. Breakfast buffet gave plenty of variety and catered for all tastes. Location right in the centre of town, and just a short taxi ride from the train station was ideal.

CanadaI don’t like rooms facing courtyard as it doesn’t allow for sunlight to enter. I was forced to keep my blinds shut all day for privacy and had to use artificial light. Also, housekeeping could be improved. I had used glasses and they didn’t even replace them or take them away?
Location is great. Restaurant at the hotel is really good. Staff is attentive.

The hotel is in the city centre. It is near airport and santa claus village. Bus stop to and from airport is just across the building. Location is great. It is clean and breakfast buffet has lots of choices. Comfortable bed too.

LithuaniaIt was very cold in the hotel - in the room, the restaurant, at the breakfast area, I don't think, that it is normal. Also the bed for kid (9 year old) was very uncomfortable to sleep, ar was very small :( Also in the shower was bad cabin door, because after taking a shower all floor was in the water (lots of cleaning every time). Come on Scandic, you can do better! We believe in you ;)
Hotel is in the city center. You can reach the supermarket easily, also the bus stops across the street near the hotel. Duoble bed was comfortable enough. It was nice to have an ability to have tea at our room.

HungaryThe room was a bit cold for us. During having a shower the water ran out of the shower box, so the bathroom was always wet. We had a dinner in the restaurant, which was full of people and there was only one waitress, so we had to wait for the dessert more than 1 hour after finishing the main dish.
Located in the centre of the city, a mall is on the opposite and a Burger King just next to it. Breakfast was very good. Cleaning service was ok. Staff was very nice.

PhilippinesCleanliness of the room and bathroom wasn't great. There were bits of things on the bathroom floor and carpet from lint, to dust, to chocolate-looking bits. The bathroom garbage can wasn’t empty upon arrival. The shower is also very tiny. They don't make your beds. They simply put back the decorative pillows on the bed to think that they did, but they didn't even bother to fix and smoothen out the duvet. Towels that were not hung, but left on the counter (signal to please replace) were not changed. I had to go out into the corridor and ask the housekeeping staff for fresh towels - something important since you are requested to bring your room towels when you visit the sauna. The breakfast tables are also not cleared often so it took a while to find a table or staff to clear it. I had laundry done and the ladies at the front desk were incredibly helpful and professional. When I went to collect my laundry, the guy at the counter said he wouldn't know if my laundry was done because he just gotten there. His response was impolite, unprofessional, and unbecoming as a member of any customer service staff, what more, the front desk. To top it off, newly laundered items smelled like a wet dog. It seems like the laundry partner packed it right away even if the clothes were still damp. It wasn't cheap, mind you. It was all a waste and a terrible experience.
The location was really convenient and only a 10-min drive from the airport with access to restaurants and shops immediately as you step out. Having an in-house empty sauna was a treat. You need to be careful though because taxi drivers across have full view of the women's change room. Their restaurant had delicious dishes and the staff was really warm and helpful. It was convenient for the last night. There were just too many guests and orders for one person to take on all by themselves though.
