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.).

SwedenOver the years (I have stayed here many many times) they have cut down on smaller items like some breakfast items and items in the minibar. It gives the sense of a downward spiral.
Lovely place. Good services on location; restaurant and bistro. Very comfortable room and bed and pillows.

PolandThe parking lot outside was very overcrowded, with one free space under a large tree where cormorants hang out at night. In the morning the car looked like it had been bombarded with feces.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Delicious breakfast.

GermanyTimber Sauna was not really worked correctly, there are cracks on the wall, where the air can come in. On the second floor of the spa building, there is a ice machine which is really noise, and we did not have hot water compared to the main building where everything was perfect.
Our first accommodation has been cancelled by the Host in Öland, so we have booked in the last minute Skansen. Finally we have spent there 2 nights because we wanted to look around in Öland and enjoyed the stay as well. Great size of room, helpful staff and beautiful longe area. Breakfast had wide range of choice, with gluten free and vegan options. Animals are welcomed, some treats have been served to our dog. Based on our complains, we got small amount of refund, which was a correct attitude.

SwedenWe were woken up in the middle of the night by fire alarm which was due to some technical issue. My son got very stressed. We spent 30 minutes outside the building. The usual way from our floor to outside was closed, there were no marks about the emergency exit door in it. We were confused. In the morning there were no explanations or excuses provided.

NorwayAs stated this is a hotel that tries to be "upscale" but it's not. I booked a budget room (if you call 2000SEK to be budget...!) with plans on staying for at least a week. Since the room came with a somewhat hefty price and is located in Sweden I assumed that it would be a decent room but it was terrible. The small room comes with extra beds (that I didn't asked for or have booked) and contains a long hallway a cramped bath (sink so small that you barely can wash your hands ) so the actually room you stay in barely has room to put your feet on the floor. What's not mention either is that the room is situated over the kitchen and eaven if you open the windows and start a fan it consistent is +30C in the room at all times! When I complained about this I got offered a room upgrade for 600SEK ,so I could have a better fan. What a joke! I think it's horrible that they actually call this a Hotel room and that they feed upon unknowing tourists that book this room and get their holiday ruined. Also the parking was bad,with loads of bird droppings and the breakfast was mediocre with few things to select from. Also the tables where dirty. Its a shame. But maybe you get better service if you book a more expensive room.. I surely hope so!
Not like the pictures- Small rooms and no air-conditioning in 30+ heat. Mediocre breakfast, dirty tables and bird droppings everywhere! If possible don't book this hotel.
