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.).

Loved everything about this apartment. Very centrally located, the apartment is right next to restaurants and supermarkets. The place has everything, cookware, washing machine and even a dryer. It was spotless clean and warm and featured a balcony for the lazy evenings. The free parking was very helpful. The host was super helpful and very responsive and communicated the instructions in a detailed manner. We would definitely stay here again whenever we visit Reykjavík again

Would have liked extra towels and sheets. The walk-in shower did not have door, so the bathroom floor got all wet and there were no extra towels.
Received detailed email with pictures from the host to collect the keys. The property was spacious, with all the amenities, close to stores, sights, restaurants, free parking. Did not get to meet the host, but was able to communicate by email.

The apartment is located next to Hlemmur and has its own parking space which is a money saver for downtown Reykjavik! Ragnar is excellent in communication and very helpful with directions about the check in, wifi, etc. The apartment is fuly equiped with all amenities, including a washing machine and dryer for those who might want to pack lighter for such a trip :-) The balcony is super nice as well, and it there is aurora activity, you can simply experience it from there. :-) Can definitely recommend this to everyone and might book myself again in a future trip in Reykjavik!

There is a reason why this apartment is rated almost ten. It was spacious and very clean. Bus stops 13 (right outside) and 12 (a short walk) for tour pickups are close by, and the city bus stop is also close. Above all, the host Ragnar was very accommodating to all our needs due to our early arrival and schedule changes. What a lovely stay it was. We would definitely stay here again.

access is a bit complicated as google maps send you to a different route but type euro store and then take right is the convenient way to navigate and reach.
This was hands down the best stay for group of 3. Close to attractions with free parking made our stay so convenient and comfortable. Host was responsive though home was well equiped and we did not need to ask for anything extra.

The apartment is just amazing. Beautiful, cosy, clean, spacious, easy to find, with all the amenities you need. The host (Ragnar) is very helpful, kind and responsive. I highly recommend the place. It was the best accomodation in our 14-days road trip through Iceland.

Everything was perfect! The apartment is located centrally and yet in a quiet neighbourhood in walking distance to all restaurants, shops and attractions of Reykjavik. The apartment is very clean, spacious and well equipped. The host made check-in very easy. Busstop 12 and 13 are just around the corner but if you choose 'hotel pickup' for your excursions, you can board the bus in front of Hotel Klettur wich is 2 min. from the apartment. Everything was so easy and went really smooth.

There were quite a few instructions to follow to access the apartment and the carpark, but the host was very helpful, providing detailed instructions and pictures to guide us. You just need to follow the instructions carefully.
Loved the clean and spacious apartment! It's large enough for a family, even though we were just two people. Totally private (with its own underground carpark for the whole block) and it had all the facilities you could need (e.g. cooking, washing). Location wise, it's on the fringe of town but Reykjavik is small anyway, so no complaints.
