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.).

United StatesImpeccably clean, had everything a long term guest would want. Very close to the small town center, and great jumping off place for exploring waterfalls and volcanic features. Host was kind enough to let us check in a bit early because we were sick and needed a place to rest.

United StatesThe apartment exceeded our expectations. It was super clean and cozy. The location is perfect, situated in the center of the main sight-seeing places located in the south of Iceland. The best part is that it has a kitchen, where we made great lamb soups by ourselves, which tasted much better than some famous restaurants. Our family had a great time there.

I booked this accommodation at the very last minute due to bad weather cancelling ferries out to my planned destination. Communications were great, and the host was incredibly gracious and accommodating. The apartment is well furnished, very comfortable, and a perfect place to stay for a couple of nights to visit the Selfoss area and the Golden Circle. It is in a quiet location but, with shops, supermarkets and restaurants on the doorstep. I would stay here again.

Gunnar was so easy to work with and flexible with our check-in and check out times. There was coffee, pods, and tea to get us started in the kitchen. And all of the toiletries that we would need.

It was really top!! Huge and comfy Appartment, warm and very stylish. We spent a few days there with the family. Check in was uncomplicated, we felt welcome. Selfoss is a great city from where you can go to so many different places worth seeing: lava-tunnel, hot springs, lava Museum, national park, see side, nice local restaurants... And we enjoyed the time with the family in this Appartement.
