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 reviewA nice and cozy hotel based on a classical Norwegian farm, located deeply and quietly at a branch of the famous Sognefjorden, and a good place for glaciers hiking in Nigardsbreen.
No TV in my room.

Verified reviewVery nice old farmhouse with exellent views. The Food was great and staff was attentive and nice. We had some drinks in the garden next to the main building which was excellent as it was very hot day for a norwegian summer. The addition of a sauna and a pier to watch (did not made use of Kayaks for rent) over the water made it a nice complete package. From the hotel it was only a short drive to Jostedal for excellent hikes or to visit the glacier.
The room was a bit small and felt a bit crowded for staying with multiple people.

Verified reviewWe stayed in the Fjord Cabin (the glass mirror cube) and it was definitely a YOLO kind of experience. We felt suspended in the fjord while lying in bed, and saw both sunset and sunrise (11pm and 4:30am, respectively :). That said, I think would have preferred their regular suite with the big windows for the extra space. Also, we were blessed with amazing weather (sunny and nearly 80 degrees), and it can get hot in the fjord cabin given it's all glass, but the AC worked well. The location was incredible with a great view of waterfall right across the fjord. It is very easy to visit both Sognefjord and Hardangerfjord (we did both before/during/after). A great central location to see fjord country. We had dinner both nights. They serve a 3-course fixed menu but will do substitutions for food preference (eg., my husband doesn't eat fish). Excellent, fresh cooking and worth the price. The wine list was also very good with a good selection and reasonably priced (for Norway). That said, I don't know where else you would have dinner without driving at least 30 minutes. Keep in mind dinner is somewhat communal, so you may be seated with other guests. We met 2 lovely couples from Belgium and even got some great travel tips! All in all a very memorable stay!
The fjord cabin was pretty small. there was not much space to sit inside except on the bed once we put the luggage on the chairs (only place for them). But there was a lovely outside seating area so that's fine. The shower didn't drain our first night and flooded the bathroom, but that was fixed the 2nd day. Wifi was very weak in the fjord cabin. Breakfast was ok but didn't match the quality of dinner or other places we've stayed in Norway.

Verified reviewDinner was exceptional--my compliments to the chef! Best meal of our trip! Breakfast was also delicious, and the renovated barn setting for breakfast was charming. Speciai thanks for the homemade jam for my croissant! All of the common areas were lovely and well appointed. One of the staff provided over-the-top help with getting the EV car charger to work--in the rain! Thank you!
The weather was not ideal for exploring outdoors, and we arrived too late to take advantage of checking out the neighborhood.

Verified reviewBeautiful location and delicious dinner that was unusual and visually appealing.
My room did not have a good view of the fjord. It had side windows that looked out on a garden and the fjord at a corner.

Verified reviewBeautifull spot, authentic Norwegian style and buildings, great dinners, specially great wines cellar (not seen before in Norway), nice sauna on the fjord! Great starting point for trips ( Gletser, Stavekirke, fjord touring)
Given the high price level one would expect a bit more service: tea and coffee in the room, daily cleaning, more comfortable matrass (to soft)
