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 reviewThe location is truly amazing, the staff was friendly and the food at the restaurant was good. We really enjoyed the nature and the view (the sunset was amazing) and all of the animals there. The beds were also comfortable.
Unfortunately we didn't sleep well, we stayed at a room on the ground floor of the guesthouse and when somebody was talking in the living room it was almost like that person was inside our room speaking. Also when people woke up at 6 in the morning and went down to the bathroom the stairs made so much noise that we woke up. I think it would be good to put up signs in the guesthouse reminding people to be considerate and not make unnecessary noise during certain hours. Everything else we were happy with.

Verified reviewBeautiful quiet location. Many Icelanders were there for holiday, not just foreigners. Restaurant on site, shared kitchen facility.
We were a family of 3, and one of the beds had a deep depression in the mattress and was uncomfortable.
Dear Darrin, Thank you for your review. Our apologies for the inconvinience. We've checked and replaced the mattress for the future. We hope to host you again in the future!

Verified reviewThe location is great. I was astonished with the view around.
Unfortunately the bungalows were occupied, so I decided to take the guesthouse which is a budgetary choice. Small room with banked beds was not the standard I like. From the other hand it was clean and quiet.

Verified reviewBeautiful landscape and buildings, kind people, arctic foxes on the campsite nearby.
The tame rabbits that were resting near the front porch of the guesthouse attracted packs of noisy children, some of them viciously jumping on top of the rabbits. People regularly disturbed the foxes by coming too close to the den.

Verified reviewComfortable yet separated beds inspired by Islandic tradition.
Main area dark and insufficiently lit. The kitchen area was poorly equipped, with old, partially damaged pots, virtually no basic amenities like salt nor sugar.
