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 reviewStaff were friendly. The view from our room (one bedroom suite) was excellent. The restaurant food was very good.
For a suite the room was very underwhelming. No smart televisions. Lacking the finer things you would expect for the price.

Junky old building in the parking lot Also they should provide shuttle service to Liknes
Dear Erik, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the beautiful views and our breakfast offerings! Regarding the old building in the parking lot, we understand that it may look out of place. Rest assured, we have plans for its renovation when the budget allows, as our current focus is on enhancing the hotel experience to ensure every guest has a memorable stay. For transportation to Liknes, we do offer a taxi service upon request. However, as Kvinesdal is a smaller town, availability can be somewhat limited, but we’re always happy to assist with arrangements. We appreciate your comments and look forward to welcoming you back in the future! Warm regards,Team Utsikten

Verified reviewI recently stayed at Utsikten Hotel Kvinesdal for one night and was very disappointed with my experience. I understand that I booked the “economy” room, which was the cheapest option, but given that this is a 4-star hotel, I expected a certain level of quality. Unfortunately, the room I was given fell far short of those expectations. The room was located on the first floor, small, and overlooked the parking lot, which was expected. However, the room was also smelly, dirty, and furnished with very basic and cheap furniture that did not reflect the standards of a 4-star hotel. The bathroom was particularly disappointing, with a linoleum floor—a material I’ve never encountered in a hotel bathroom before, and certainly not in one claiming to be 4 stars. The breakfast was another letdown. The coffee was poor, with no option for espresso or cappuccino, which was surprising for a hotel of this supposed caliber. On a positive note, the staff were friendly, but this alone did not make up for the numerous shortcomings. I want to warn potential guests not to make the same mistake I did. The management of this hotel should make it clear that the economy room is not up to 4-star standards and is more akin to what you’d find in the cheapest hostels. I would not recommend this hotel based on my experience.
(google translate) Good evening Pavlo, Thank you very much for your honest feedback. We will take this with us further. We are a hotel without stars, and have several categories of rooms. We have an older part, which is our economy part, and is very simply and older furnished. We understand your experience if you expected a 4-star room. However, it is disturbing to hear that you found it dirty and smelly, as we really focus on cleanliness and delicate experiences from entrance to exit. On the other hand, we also have a great modern part, with a magical view of the Fedafjord. It is simple, tasteful and modernly furnished with art pictures and apartments with balconies. We really hope you will come back and you can have a new experience. Boring that you have had such an experience with us. With the best wishes for a great autumn, and that you come back for new delicious experiences. ps - we do have other coffie also, when the restaurant are open. Best regards, Team Utsikten

(we used goole transate) Hello, Thank you very much for giving us feedback. We are curious about the type of room you chose with us. This is because we have both an older part and a newer, modern part. We will check our rooms and carpets - and hope we will have the opportunity to give you a cleaner one on another occasion. Nice that the breakfast tasted delicious, we are proud of it :-) We wish you a great autumn, and welcome back Best regards Team Utsikten

The lighting was a bit dim.
Thank you very much for the great feedback! We are happy that you and your family had such a positive stay with us, and that the breakfast and the special table arrangement were a pleasure for you. We appreciate the feedback about the lighting. In order to improve, we would like to hear a little more about where the light was dim - was it in the hotel room or in the common areas?
