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.).

A large hotel in a central location. Large, comfortable, clean rooms (simple traditional style rather than modern). Large and lively onsite restaurant serving local specialities. Underground parking (quite busy).

NorwayThe carpeted floor in the room was a bit meh and part of what I would call quite outdated interior. Bathroom was more recent and ok. Staff was friendly in interaction but not very extrovert when just passing through.
It's in a very good location at the end of the pedestrian street. Clean and nice. Friendly restaurant at ground floor with good food and drink.

GermanyRealised that the pillows provided were very flimsy - unfortunately that was at a late time of day (or rather night). There were no extra pillows provided in the closet. Also: hotel has no room fridges - yet the amazing receptionist offered to put anything in the kitchen fridge..
The young receptionist was exceptionally friendly and accommodating - a major plus as the first impression.

GermanyIts a very minor thing, but the lockers in the sauna for the mens side were all missing locks or had been left locked - despite the sauna being empty. I presume this is really the fault of badly behaved or forgetful guests, but meant I couldn't store my clothes anywhere securely. Beds were a bit hard.
Lovely room, lovely staff, nicely placed. Staff very friendly and accommodating, really willing to help. Parking was really simple. Whole place decorated nicely which gave a luxury sort of feel whilst also being cosy.

NorwayThe rooms are stripped of nearly everything. It's the height of the summer, no fans in the rooms, no mini-fridges, no decent sheets or light duvets on the bed. It's not an inexpensive hotel. I expect some amenities in the rooms. The wifi was spotty at best. We has a large event and no air flow, it was sweaty and uncomfortable. Closing lined curtains only does so much.
The facility is nice, well-kept, and the breakfast is great. The rooms are a nice size.

United KingdomDuring our stay, the weather was around 29/30 degrees Celsius, and the rooms were unbearably hot without any fans provided. The flannel-like sheets only made it worse, and with the room temperature at 28 degrees, the hotel offered no solutions. Clearly, the place is not designed for summer. Also, water was provided but it was EUR3 - it is very hot and not even water was provided for free. It is the first hotel I have been to in Germany where that was the case. The room service was quite odd and awkward. You have to fill in a form, of which you only get one, to specify what you want done. Although it was supposedly upon request, services were only offered once a week. It was really annoying to have to go to them just to ask them to empty a bin, which should be done automatically every day. Additionally, running out of essentials like tissues and toilet paper and having to ask for them to be replenished made the whole stay awkward and not relaxing. There were no tea or coffee facilities, so I had to ask for a kettle, which they did provide, but this is something that is standard in most hotels in Germany. When we tried to dine at the hotel, we were informed it would take 2 hours and were asked to leave. I wasn't sure if it was because they were shorthanded in the kitchen or just didn't want to deal with us in English. Overall, it was not a great stay.
Although old fashioned, the room was very spacious. There was a great spread for breakfast. The location is fantastic for the town with cafes and shops all walking distance.
