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.).

United StatesWhile the room was very, very good, the only downside was that the furniture is a bit too big for the space. If the furniture is downsized a bit it would be nearly perfect.
The owner and staff are wonderful, the location is a classic Icelandic stark beauty, and the design touches are really nice.

United StatesThat we could not stay forever.
Everything! We arrived earlier than expected, and were graciously permitted an early check-in. Gudrun made our stay comfortable and no need was unmet. Our cabin was modern, exceptionally clean and quite charming. The provided robes were fantastic! The room did get a little warm, but that was quickly resolved by opening the window. The on site restaurant offered evening dining, which was a life-saver. The food was fabulous. The views are amazing, surrounded by mountains and free range Icelandic Sheep. Gudrun made us aware of the Northern Lights forecast, so we stayed up late to see them. INCREDIBLE! There is no television and we weren’t even mad about it! If you are looking for a charming, warm, friendly and inviting place to stay, this is the place for you. You are in Iceland, enjoy the experience!!!

FranceBeautiful and very cozy accommodation. They even provide bathrobes. The views are fantastic and the comfy armchairs invite to linger. Very quiet and peaceful. We would have liked to have stayed a bit longer to go on walks and explore the valley. Very good restaurant on site where we booked a delicious dinner and had a good breakfast. The staff was very friendly.

SwitzerlandDalahyttur deserves 11/10! There are clean, cozy and very well equipped huts in a beautiful location, the bed was probably the most comfortable bed we slept in our life:) We stayed for a few nights and it was a perfect place to reach multiple destinations, like west fiords or snaefellsnes. Gudrun is the nicest and heartiest host, always ready to advise and help to plan anything you'd like. On top of that, any item in the dinner menu was absolutely delicious.

United StatesThe gravel road that leads to the hotel is a bit of a let down. However, gravel roads are quite common in Iceland. Even the Ring Road that circles the island has sections that are unpaved.
We arrived in stormy weather that was to last for days. So, we didn't get to enjoy the outdoors that clearly are nice. The lodges are split into two parts and we were assigned on the other side of the road that cuts through this hotel, and away from the dining room as well as reception. Due to high winds, it was impossible to walk around and we even had to drive the short distance to cross the road for breakfast.

Definitely one of the highlights of our trip. The property is located in a beautiful isolated location with magnificent views of the mountains and valleys. Peaceful and serene! The rooms are spotlessly clean, well furnished with soft comfortable beds and beautiful linen. The dinner was delicious and the included breakfast provided much in variety and quantity. Above all, the owner is friendly helpful and informative. She was very understanding of an awkward situation we had and went out of her way to make our stay memorable and enjoyable.

IcelandAbsolutely nothing. This place deserves your hard earned money.
What an absolute hidden gem of a place. From the minute we arrived we were welcomed and made to feel right at home. Guðrún Björg is the sort of host that others simply dream of being. Every single detail has been thought out, she is a warm wealth of information about the area, and someone who truly cares about making your stay and experience as magical as it could be. The meals we enjoyed were also exceptional - lamb sourced from the property, and cod caught by her sons and husband, and freshly made waffles in the morning - what more could you ask for? This place is worth every penny and the view from our cottage was just tops. Go - stay here - relax - enjoy!
