How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewI liked the location even if it was quite far out from Tórshavn, where I had already been . It gave me the opportunity to explore another area of town. Lovely sea view from the bedroom window. The bed was very comfortable.
I could hear the people from the room above mine, even if they were just talking. Their phone vibration woke me up at 5:30 am. I can promise that usually I am not a light sleeper.

Verified reviewThe room was very comfortable, and the kitchen was fully equipped and very convenient. The view was great.
Unfortunately, the host rarely replied to messages, and response times were usually over 12 hours.

Verified reviewEverything! Pretty house, attention to detail, coffee and tea in the room, perfect functioning fridge in the room, clear and kind instructions, very well equipped kitchen with quality appliances and pans (stainless steel) so you don’t have to poison yourself cooking, very pleasant environment, wonderful views and total freedom to come and go. Beautiful bathroom. I was so pleased to find a hair diffuser attachment for the hair dryer offered in the room!! (First time in my life. As a curly hair person I was absolutely pleased💖). We would definitely recommend it and would come back! We also loved having the open air museum right across the street for our after-dinner walks.
There is a pretty steep ramp from the parking lot and many stairs in the house. It didn’t bother us, but just to take it into account if there are some kind of mobility issues.

Verified reviewYou have to share facilities, like the kitchen. But overall the bedroom was very clean and comfortable and it provided a good base for our visit to Torshavn.

Verified reviewI had a wonderful stay at Faroeguide in Tórshavn. The room was absolutely fantastic clean, well-organized, and beautifully arranged. I had some truly peaceful moments to relax and unwind. The kitchen is fully equipped, which is perfect if you enjoy cooking your own meals. Everything was spotless and thoughtfully prepared. The host was always available when I needed support, and I truly appreciated the attention and care. I would definitely stay here again, and I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the Faroe Islands. A great experience from start to finish!

Verified reviewGreat base for exploring Faroe Islands with a convenient location in Hoyvik, 5 minutes away drive from downtown Torshavn. Shared bathroom and kitchen were clean and spacious. Room was cozy, comfortable and just what I needed.

Verified reviewFaroeGuide is the best accommodation you can get in the Faroe Islands on a budget. The location is amazing, the facilities are great and the host is very kind. We travelled around by bus and the stop for lines 300 and 400 is right next to the house. There are also multiple local buses taking you into town. If you want to rent a car, the host can help you and provide parking. She will share insightful information about activities and the culture of the islands. The kitchen is fully equipped, so you can even cook or warm up some food. There are affordable grocery stores nearby. The room is large and the beds are comfy, we had a good rest. Last but not least, the view from our window was fabulous! We fell in love with the Faroe Islands and will definitely come back!
Be aware that there are multiple rooms, so it might get a bit noisy and crowded in the evenings. Please respect the quiet hours when you stay here! We would recommend to bring your own toiletries or buy them from a store when you arrive.

Verified reviewGreat close location to Torshavn allowing me to explore the main island with ease, great view out of the rooms window, kitchen well stocked with utensils and cookware you would need and the bathroom was very clean. Oreo (house dog) was an exceptional welcome party as well My only slight complaint were that the pillows were a little flat but can simple be folded for more volume, this has been passed on to the Host. Every other aspect of the stay was brilliant

Verified reviewThe hosts were very kind and friendly, and the accommodation was very clean, cosy, comfortable and homelike. We enjoyed making breakfast and dinners in the kitchen, and the view from our bedroom window. We very much enjoyed our stay here.
There was only one bathroom for showers, so we sometimes had to wait to use it. There was another toilet, but it did not have a shower in it.
