Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesIt is a bit hot inside and noticed the cabin next to us has grasses grown on top of the roof. Wondering if it is to absorb the heat and cold.
The view is fantastic. You are in the middle of the grasses and flowers. Glacier and volcano in front of the hot tub (using glacier water)! Newly built cabin with new bathroom, furnitures and appliances. Everything is up to date. 360 views around the cabin. The best place to stay for my whole trip in Iceland and more cost effective than SHL hotels.

United StatesMy only criticism would be that there were not enough pillows, there was one pillow for each adult and they were very thin.
The cabin was in a lovely setting with the perfect layout to accommodate our family of four adults.

United StatesIt didn’t work so well for us as a family with two older teen boys. One had to sleep on the couch and there weren’t any sheets, etc… so he wasn’t the most comfortable. The large dining table was nice but it made for a bit of a cramped space. The bathroom while nice and modern, flooded from our showers because of the design.
This is a beautiful location - peaceful and good to see northern lights. The hot tub was fantastic. Love, love, love all the windows.

United StatesThis is more a general Iceland thing but the showers here don’t have a ridge to hold the water in so the entire bathroom was wet. There was a push mop. I would rather not be mopping on vacation.
We loved the tranquil setting and the views from the deck and private hot tub. We were in the heart of the golden circle without the crowds. It was so unbelievably peaceful and comfortable.

United StatesThe bathroom - there was no water pressure, and the water did smell of sulphur. The location is very remote - even though we loved that it made the northern lights better, you should know that there is no "town" nearby, everything is at least a 20 minute drive. However, we knew that going in.
The cabins are much nicer than it looks in the picture - very well-appointed and had a spacious feel. Huge windows made a big difference! The kitchen was tiny but well equipped except for the lack of a dishwasher - we could cook full meals there with no problems. The hosts were very responsive. The hot tub was fantastic! - especially when we saw northern lights while hanging out there!

We had anticipated that the weather may not be “kind” for the whole week, therefore decided to book a bigger cabin so we could be more comfortable should we not be able to get out and sightsee. It was an excellent move. The cabin was extremely comfortable, warm and cosy.
