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 StatesVery convenient to the Thorsmork area if you are doing any of the jeep and hiking tours. Extremely beautiful location with quite the mountain right behind the hotel. No dinner at the hotel when we were there in June 2024, but there is a nice bistro at a different hotel just down the road next to Skogafoss. Buffet breakfast was included and was quite good.

NorwayNothing to complain, except for minor things. The shower curtains were not enough to prevent the water from splashing. Bathroom door was a bit clumsy and did not isolate the bathroom very well. When we moved the single beds to make it a double bed, we noticed some dirt on the floor beneath the bed. When we arrived, there was an odour of cleaning agent, which eventually vanished, but when we tried to open the windows we did not managed to do it.
Great breakfast. The soap in the bathroom had a very good scent. The door code I was given did not work, but I called the staff and they helped immediately. They were very helpful and practical. Check-in and check-out went very smoothly although it was unmanned. The hotel is located very close to Skógafoss. The view of the mountains is breathtaking.

Canada- gravel road to the hotel with a few potholes (but fine even for 2WD car) - not enough space for clothes or personal items in the room - bathroom door didn't close properly, also shower is just a part of the bathroom, not a separate shower cabin so water will be everywhere, but it is all manageable. Looks like it is a common type of the shower at the hotels in Iceland. - self check in for the room - our code didn't work and we had to call someone, because no one was at the reception, but we were helped very quickly
It's OK place to stay for 1 or 2 nights, room was small, but has all the necesseties (but had to borrow a hairdryer from the lobby). This hotel has 3 "houses" with rooms, there is a kettle and tea\coffee in the lobby of the each house with rooms and you can use coffee machine in the main breakfast area as well. - Good breakfast with hot options(bacon, pancakes, sausages), toasts, ham and cheese, cereals, basic fruits and veggies, but try to come early so there is enough coffee in the machine. - Enough parking for everyone. Good view from the room. - Good location - 30 min to Vik and attractions, some attractions are nearby
