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 reviewBeautiful hotel in 1920s decor. Ambience suggested Mr Poirot or Miss Marple might arrive any moment to solve an intricate crime. Soft jazzy music at breakfast. Friendly, helpful staff.
A very slight inconvenience in lack of hot vegetarian food at the otherwise excellent breakfast buffet. Dinner menu not very extensive, disappointing mozzarella quality. Rest of food at dinner absolutely delicious.

Verified reviewThe property was in a great location. I didn’t realize that I was in an island full of museums. It was a great surprise! I could take the ferry into old town and be there within 10 minutes. The room was spacious and the hotel was nice. The staff was amazing! Ludwig (sp?) was so helpful answering all my questions and guiding me in the right direction! Really appreciate it all his help! The room was clean and the hotel was well maintained.
I think the one thing that I was extremely disappointed about was the food. Breakfast was so-so and very limited. Dinner was a catastrophe for me because they didn’t have any chicken or fish available and I don’t eat red meat. Also, the shower was a bit outdated and there seem to be mold on the shower floor. The staff did have someone come and try to clean it up, but it didn’t quite work.

Verified reviewThe breakfast buffet was amazing. The hotel is across the street from the ABBA museum and a short walk to Skansen and the Vasa museum. Public transport made it easy to get to other neighborhoods in the city. We would definitely stay here again when we are in Stockholm.

Verified reviewThe location is perfect. Situated in the heart of Djurgården, the hotel is right beside the main tourist attractions, reachable by a short walk or multiple modes of public transport. The city centre is also reachable by bus, tram or boat, which also run very frequently. The breakfast each morning was delicious, with a variety and plenty of choice. Food was always fresh and the coffee hot. Despite it's busy location, the hotel was always quiet and peaceful, particularly at night. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms and facilities were spotless.
Some staff members could be a little more accommodating/gentle with those who have additional needs. Bastu/sauna facility a little disappointing - small and very basic. A suggest would be to not allow young children in after a certain time.
Hi! Thank you so much for your feedback. We hope to welcome you back again. Best regards, Elvira - Front desk

Verified reviewLovely historical hotel, very close to a lot of museums on the Djurgarden Island (Vassa Museum, Skansen, Grona Lund, ABBA museum and many others). If you wanna travel to the city you have tram or boat at a short walk. Good breakfast but no changes of food during our 5 day stay.

Verified reviewLocated on Djurgården, in a relatively quiet area. The breakfast is excellent, with a wide variety of dishes offered. The rooms are a bit dark and the furniture fairly basic. The reception staff provide an excellent welcome, always very helpful and full of good advice. We appreciated the taxi booking to the airport as well as the option to take breakfast to go.
A bit disappointing that housekeeping was not always thorough, particularly the bathtub, which was not cleaned during our entire stay
Hi Jérôme! Thank you so much for your kind review, we’re happy to hear you enjoyed the location, breakfast, and the service from our staff!

Verified reviewIt's a beautiful hotel with friendly, helpful staff & good food. We could walk to all the attractions in that area & it was an easy ferry ride to Gamla Stan.
Parking near the Hotel is a challenge & the pay station does not seem to have clear info in English. Also for the room for 3 adults they just added a cot which eas marginally comfortable.

Verified reviewLocation is nice for those with kids - near Skansen, grona lund. The outdoor area is really well taken care of, and beautiful.
Small rooms, if you have more than 2 bags it’s impossible to open then and still circulate in the room até the same time. Hotel is quite old, and although parts of it have been renovated (bathrooms, for example) it has a smell that’s quite characteristic of old places and very outdated interior design, curtains, carpets, and so on. The restaurant could have more options and better service (also because there are very limited choices of restaurant nearby). The room is clean, however, mine was infested with ants - all over really.
Dear Caroline, Thank you for your kind review. We are glad you enjoyed the location and our outdoor area. We're sorry to hear the room didn’t meet your expectations. The issue with ants is unacceptable and we are looking into it immediately with the person in charge. Your feedback on the restaurant and service is appreciated and will be used to improve. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Best regards, Elvira - Frontdesk

You are within walking distance to the VASA museum, the ABBA museum and the ferry to Old Town (Gamlastan). It also has an excellent restaurant and breakfast is included. Beautiful outside seating also.

- The restaurant (for dinner) was expensive and overrated. We did not get any service and had to collect our plates and cutleries ourselves because they didn't pay any attention.
