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 reviewI 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.
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 (-).

Verified reviewGreat location, lovely staff and great breakfast.
Our room was really hot with no working AC and too much traffic noise to keep the window open.
Thank you for your kind words about our location, staff, and breakfast – we truly appreciate it! We’re very sorry to hear that the temperature in your room was uncomfortable. Our rooms are equipped with climate control rather than full air conditioning, and during warmer periods, it can be difficult to keep the temperature down, especially when opening the windows isn’t an option due to noise. We understand how this affected your comfort, and we truly hope to welcome you back for a much more pleasant stay next time. Best regards, Mikkel Scandic Aarhus City

Verified reviewGreat location and staff service, breakfast
Too small room and parking, not family friendly even with two free drinks to kids. But there is no other children facilities
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed our great location, breakfast, and the service from our staff. We’re sorry to hear you didn’t find the room and parking suitable for your family. Normally, we welcome a good mix of business travelers and families, and over the summer we’ve added a children’s table with various games and drawing activities, as well as a treasure hunt in the reception area and our hidden key challenge with different prizes each day. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for an even better experience next time. Best regards, Mikkel Scandic Aarhus City

Rooms very hot,air conditioning did not work bathroom dirty need updating
Thank you for your feedback—it means a lot to us. Firstly, I am very sorry to hear that the room was too hot and that this impacted your stay. Our rooms have a standard climate control system rather than full air conditioning, and during periods of extreme heat, like we’ve had in recent weeks, it can unfortunately be difficult to keep the temperature down. For this, we sincerely apologize. Cleanliness is one of our top priorities, so it’s very unfortunate to hear that this was not up to standard during your stay. I will address this directly with our housekeeping manager to ensure it does not happen again. I truly hope we will have the chance to welcome you back and provide you with a much better experience next time. Best regards, Mikkel Scandic Aarhus City

Verified reviewThe hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Aarhus and offers excellent service—highly recommended in that regard.
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.
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you experienced excellent service from our staff and thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience using the parking underneath the hotel, belonging to Q-park. We hope to see you back in the hotel soon again.

The beds were separated :(
Great that you enjoyed our breakfastbuffet. All our rooms are with twin beds, but it is possible to zip the mattresses so it seems and feels like a double bed. We hope to see you back in Aarhus again another time

Verified reviewWeird 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”.
Thank you for your feedback. Our check-in starts at 4:00 PM to ensure that all rooms are cleaned and ready for our guests. However, we can often offer rooms from 2:00–3:00 PM. If you wish to check in even earlier, this is possible for a fee of 200 DKK. In the meantime, there are plenty of exciting things to experience in Aarhus, and of course, we also offer luggage storage if you’d like to explore the city while waiting for your room.
