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.).

There was a bit of dust in the room when I arrived - but friendly people and atmosphere (+) matter much more than a bit of dust (-).
I had a very nice room (location-wise): near to the elevator/stairs and yet silent; the room was spacious (family room). I had a „little“ problem the first night (I locked something in the safe, following instructions- very silly of me, I almost never use a safe) which then wouldn’t open when I returned.. and I needed it (for work). The lady from the reception helped me in the best possible way, had to go back and forth many times. (and consult a technician late in the evening), but she managed. That was a great experience. I also very much liked the lobby, the atmosphere at breakfast, the rooms in general. I would say, for my needs, the hotel was as good as it gets. Moreover, a very friendly young guy at check-in gave me the room although I was a bit ahead of time.

- • Solo traveller
- • Standard Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
Important note for motorcyclists: The hotel does not have its own parking. There is a public parking garage in the same building, but it is not suitable for motorcycles. The entrance ramp is steep, and the ticket machine often doesn't detect motorcycles. Once you're at the barrier, it's nearly impossible to turn around—especially if a car is behind you. Despite several calls to the parking staff, I was unable to obtain a ticket. A better option is the alternative parking lot directly visible across from the reception. It has no entrance barrier, and payment is made at a central ticket machine—far more motorcycle-friendly. I asked the hotel staff not to direct motorcyclists to the underground garage in the future.
The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Aarhus and offers excellent service—highly recommended in that regard.

Weird that that will not let you check in early despite the room being ready, and want to charge 200kr for the inconvenience instead. Had to sit it in the lobby waiting 1.5h, which did not feel like “good service”.

- • Family with young children
- • Family Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
Because the hotel is so well located in the city center, it was quite noisy on the weekend nights. We got the feeling that the windows could be better prepared for the noise or maybe they were just not properly closed.
Super well located, close to the main attractions, as well as to supermarkets and train/bus stations. Staff was nice and the breakfast was good. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable (also the extra bed).

Bathroom a bit old with no proper shower. As a 4-star room has no small fridge ideal when you have small kids. Parking is available but at a higher-than-average hotel parking cost as the parking is not from the hotel Bed and or mattress not that comfortable anymore.
Breakfast, was good and enjoyable Room size OK for a 4-star. Bar area and lounge area is nice Location of hotel is great
