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.).

Booked the hotel almost by accident but it was a great experience. Good room, good menu, bar and all the staff were great. Don't be put off thinking it's only an equestrian hotel, it's top notch at everything but with the added bonus of a genuine Icelandic pony stable as well

The hot tube outside, quiet and calm. The lovely ladies working at the hotel. The beautiful horses nearby. The simplicity of the hotel, warm, easy. Perfect spot for a digital nomad, for a retreat and of course for horse riding lovers.

AustraliaIt seems that not many hotels in Iceland have laundry facilities and there wasn’t a refrigerator in the room for our supplies.
We stayed here for two nights. Our room was comfortable and warm. We were situated right next to the hot tub which was an added bonus. The breakfast was fantastic.

NetherlandsWhen showering, whether in the morning or evening, it would take many minutes before the water is warm. Once warm, it's a great shower.
Our arrival and check-in went good, really nice staff. Breakfast is great, very diverse and 10 stars for the wafle iron! The room is not too big, but big enough. Clean. Not a great view, but plenty of highlights in the surroundings (waterfalls, hot springs or geiser). The Islandic horses are beautiful and you can go to the stable to pet them. Really great feature! Also they give a discount for guests to go horse riding. The people at the stable are also very friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe rooms were very warm, we needed the window to be open all the time.
An exceptionally well run hotel. Fantastic staff. Really delicious breakfast and nice evening meal options. Great lounge area to relax in with books, games and free refreshments. Warm comfy rooms. It’s a horse riding hotel and there is lots of opportunity for petting the horses. We stayed three nights as part of a weeks trip and wouldn’t change a thing. The nearby town is also great for food and swimming.
