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 reviewAmazing experience in the forest! We had to book 2 pods as we are a family of 4 but the kids absolutely loved it.

Verified reviewVery special place for a romantic getaway! Not only you get to stay in a very comfortable and warm (bed are heated!) bubble, but that feeling when in a morning you go out right into the forest the first thing after you wake up is priceless! Very highly recommended!
There is nothing I can mention here!

Verified reviewLocation, the bubble itself was comfortable.
The main cabin was too small. There could be a sitting space around for guests to wait, have coffee or breakfast. It’s uncomfortable using the restrooms while knowing someone is out there.

Verified reviewHow to rate an extraordinary holiday experience?! Well, go and experience yourself! It is worth every euro. On top, Mathias is a very kind manager, assisting you on this super hotel!
Short night... We had to leave way too early to continue our iceland roadtrip .but that had nothing to do with the accommodation, even less with the nice personality of Mathias.

Verified reviewThe rooms smelled bad and the beds had hair on the sheets. Not sure how well the rooms/bedsheets were cleaned prior to our arrival.

Verified reviewWonderful location in a pine forest and a unique experience.
Access to the bubble via 2 zips was cumbersome; only 2 showers for 9 double rooms; the vent pumping air into the bubble was near my face and that didn't feel pleasant.
Dear, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the unique setting among the pine trees! It's truly a special atmosphere we're proud to offer. That said, we appreciate your feedback about the zippers, shared showers, and air vent placement. We’re always working to improve the comfort and practicality of the space, and your insights help guide that process. Hopefully, we’ll have the chance to welcome you again with an even smoother experience next time! Kind wishes, Boban

Verified reviewThe Buuble was a Magical place. We lived the twinkle lights and the canopied stairs and the gorgeous surroundings. So much fun and so cozy.
One of the other guests in the buuble next to ours was flying a drone and that made me a bit nervous. They are noisy and I didn’t like that it could fly over us.

Verified reviewTo put it shortly, a mandatory experience in Iceland. The ability to wake up in the middle of the woods and reconnect with nature, whilst having total privacy was wonderful. Facilities, although shared, were clean and well maintained, and the room was perfectly heated. On and all, a very fun and distinct (whilst still very confortable) experience
