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.).

CanadaNeeded some reading lamps in the living room and a better reading lamp in the bedroom (just too dim).
Excellent cabin/cottage in the Reykholt valley. Very close driving distance to Borgarnes to stock up on supplies at the bakery, bonus and vinbudin. Exceptionally clean, comfy and amazing views down the valley.

United StatesGroceries are a 30 minute drive, so make sure you stop there before arriving at the cottage. But our host graciously shared her food with us when we arrived without any; an example of exceeding expectations.
Cottage is spacious, clean and comfortable. Host is super-friendly and went out of her way to make our stay fantastic. Location is quiet and surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty, with many interesting sites nearby: waterfalls, historic places, hiking, horseback riding, and a natural thermal spa. The birds and farm animals delighted us, and the cottage was equipped with everything we could imagine.

A very friendly welcome, a nice host, a large well-equipped house with a spacy living room that offers panoramic views; the bathroom, kitchen and bedrooms have all what's needed for a stay. Located at a farm with animals, close to major attractions (blue water waterfalls, recent lava fields etc.)

United StatesCan’t think of anything particular.
Warmly greeted by a family that are clearly experienced hosts. The house was ready on time and everything we expected was there. The property is well located for doing interesting day trips and is in a very beautiful farming area. When we weren’t sightseeing we really enjoyed just relaxing at the farm. Our 3 year old boy showed an interest in the lovely horses. Rebecca was so kind and brought one out to show him. It was a very sweet moment.

United KingdomThe kitchen would benefit from a microwave, but we obviously had no issues cooking with the oven instead.
The cottage was lovely, warm and cosy, a perfect bolt hole from the Icelandic weather. The location was brilliant - wonderful views across the valley to the mountain ranges beyond. The host was very friendly and welcoming, even making time to show us the sheep and lambs!

GermanyWe spent 3 wonderful days at the cottage in October. As the weather slowed us down a bit, we were able to enjoy our time in the really cosy house and relax a bit. The house is very spacious and is tastefully decorated. Everything you need was there. We didn't want for anything. The owners are very accommodating and warm. We will be very happy to come back!
