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):
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.
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.).

SingaporeThe items in my standard room are very basic. There’s no kettle, no fridge, insufficient surfaces or hooks to put or hang things.
The view just in front of the hotel is spectacular. I did not need to hike 4hrs or 12 hrs to see the waterfall or mountains in front of the hotel and outside my window. There are a few viewing platforms near and in front of the hotel. The hotel has an old world charm. The staff are helpful and friendly.

Spacey room with tiny balcony and renewed bathroom. Fossli Hotel has very unique atmosphere and the history is very present (we loved it). Also a lot of art to be seen all around.

SwitzerlandBreakfast wasnt big, but you get all kinds of cold things and bread, which is plenty and tasty. The floor and doors make a lot of sounds when walking, opening / closing them....
The location is perfect and the view is insane. You can go on many hikes near this Hotel. The rooms are nice and big, you have a balcony with a good view and the bath is clean. Beds are comfortable and temperature in the rooms are good.

Amazing views over the canyon when the clouds allow visibility. It's got a lovely story to it and although it's very old fashioned we found that to be part of the charm. The staff were lovely and made us feel very welcome. We loved the viewing platform over the waterfall and the walk.

FinlandThe floor is made of wood and makes noise when walking on it. We were conscious of walking on it so as not to make too much noise. The breakfast was quite average.
The location is great which is right in front of the Vøringsfossen. It is useful because you can visit the waterfall in the evening and morning when there are few tourists. I would suggest visiting the waterfall before 9 AM because by 9:30 there were already quite many tourists. The hotel is also interesting if you like history and historical things. They have provided some information about the hotel and its founders.

AustraliaDon’t ask for scrambled or poached eggs. You’re directed to the boiled ones as the only option.
Location. Location. Location!!! Right at the top of the falls. Totally spectacular. The hotel is old and tired but the management have made an effort to spruce things up a bit. The rooms are a reasonable size and relatively comfortable. The bathrooms have had a superficial makeover. Everything seems to be shiny and new but in keeping with the old. Dinner was good but don’t be excited that there’s creme caramel on the menu. It’s not the best. Breakfast was a bit ho-hum and a bit of a non-event. A bit of fruit salad might be a nice addition to the selection.

United KingdomExcellent stay at this Hotel. Perfect location for my travels through western Norway. If you like modern facilities this isn’t the hotel for you, but I loved the character of the place taking me back in time. Rooms are basic but enough for what I needed. Major pro was its proximity to Voringfossen Waterfall which just a few steps outside the doors. Staff very friendly and helpful.
