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 reviewBreakfast was very good. Lots of healthy options. Location is premium. You are very close to the City Center.
Parking isn’t available at the hotel - total bummer for families. You have to park in a nearby parking lot (which is very expensive) and walk with all your stuff through the streets. Hotel rooms are small but ok. Views aren’t good - some rooms are looking right into other apartments.
Hello Julia, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed our breakfast and appreciated the healthy options, as well as our premium location close to the City Center. We also truly appreciate your honest feedback regarding parking and the room views. We understand that not having on-site parking can be inconvenient, especially for families, and we're sorry for the trouble this may have caused. While our hotel doesn’t have its own parking garage, our front desk is always happy to assist with directions and recommendations for nearby parking options. In fact, we have a detailed parking map available at reception, which helps guests find the most convenient and cost-effective spots nearby. As for the views, it’s true that some rooms face neighboring buildings due to our central location. If views are important for your stay, please don’t hesitate to let us know next time. We’ll do our best to accommodate your preference, subject to availability. Thank you again for your valuable feedback. We hope to welcome you back in the future! Best regards, Scandic Byparken

Room was too small for two people with a lot of luggage. Bed was comfortable but not easy accessible, wall on two side, approximately half meter on foot side. Room window was looking on not so nice and not clean roof, about 4m from another building.

Not much: the room wasn't the biggest but the lack of on-site parking is unfortunate but with a little advance research I found secure covered parking a couple of blocks away.

Excellent location, short walk from the express train from the airport. Located across from the Byparken, so great location. 10-15 min walk to the fish market and most sites.
I asked about laundry before we got there, was told it was available. We arrived on a Friday and was told not available through the weekend, so had to hunt the city for a laundromat/dry cleaner. Sorry to complaint about this - but couldn't ruined our day if we hadn't found a place to drop off our clothing.
