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.).

Tiny rooms No telephone No television Shower water runs out to your toilet area... It's not so great that you have to wipe it dry or get your feet wet when you re-enter the bathroom Night guy leaves 10pmish, so u can not get an extra pillow or towel. No mini fridge Entry door to property appears to open to anyone at all hours? Is there a code for late checking in? Rather expensive for what you get

Verified reviewIt is convenient to have a dinner and breakfast in the hotel after a long drive. The hotel compound is large and it has walkway so that you do not need to walk to your room in the cold. Parking is easy in front of the hotel. Breakfast is great. Unfortunately we did not make use of the outdoor hot pool after our dinner.
The noise from other rooms are too loud. We were awaken by some strange sound in the midnight. Maybe the hotel can invest a bit in sound-proof wall next time. It is marked as 4 stars in Booking.com, which makes the expectation a bit higher than necessary.
Dear Yimin, Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear that our location, easy parking, and breakfast helped make your stopover comfortable after a long drive. We appreciate your suggestions regarding soundproofing and are sorry to hear that noise disturbed your rest. We take guest comfort seriously and will certainly review how we can improve in this area. Regarding the star rating, we understand that expectations vary, and we strive to provide the best possible experience within our category. Thank you again for your valuable comments. We hope to welcome you back for an even better stay in the future. Kind regards, Stracta Hotel

The room was a little small for a family of four, but that is what you get. And, if you order chicken fingers at the restaurant, you will get frozen chicken nuggets.

Verified reviewThe breakfast was good and the room was clean.
This was the most expensive hotel during our stay in Iceland and the room was tiny. I definitely expected more for the amount of money we paid. Some type of alarm went off twice in the middle of the night.
Dear Tanya, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the breakfast and found your room clean — we know how important those details are to a comfortable stay. That said, we're truly sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations, especially given the cost. Iceland can be a particularly expensive destination during peak travel times, but we understand that value and comfort should always go hand in hand. We also sincerely apologize for the overnight alarm disturbance - that is certainly not the kind of restful night we aim to provide, and we’re looking into the cause to prevent future disruptions. We appreciate your comments and hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future. We’d love the opportunity to provide you with a more enjoyable and restful stay. Kind regards, Stracta Hotel
