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.).

Smalandsgarden is a really nice hotel set in a beautiful, quiet lakeside position. There was a feeling of total relaxation about the location and surrounding countryside. The hosts were very pleasant and engaging, volunteering ideas of places to visit on our stay. We wanted to swim, relax by the water, walk in the forests and enjoy nature on our stay. Smalandsgarden delivered on every level. We would definitely return.

EgyptExcellent hosts and excellent welcoming they go the extra mile Very nice breakfast especially the homemade rhubarb kind of jam Dinner we had the goat cheese salad and entrecôte. Loved it. Ingredients especially goat cheese salad was amazing. Room we had was very cute the bathroom is a little small (only fit 1 person). The lake in front of the hotel is very easy accessible and water was very clean. Had a nice swim session. Their is a small current to the right side of the jetty. Would suggest to have a flag so you can find back the starting position. Would recommend this hotel 100 percent.

BelgiumOur cabin was located next to the parking lot. It would have been nice to have some trees or bushes, for more privacy.
The hotel is very nicely located next to the lake. You can spend an entire day sunbathing, swimming…. Very relaxing atmosphere!

United StatesTruly there is nothing negative, The only thing I would say is i didn’t find the bed to be very comfortable but that could be personal choice. The bathroom was also small so I could see that being tough for an extended stay. May not be the same in all rooms.
Beautiful location! Adorable rooms! Owner was very communicative in the lead up to our visit as I had a few questions. Very friendly staff on-site who gave us many recommendations for the rest of our journey to Stockholm. This would be the perfect place to disconnect for a few days in any season!

AustriaOf course an old house is not equipped with huge bathrooms or other amenities, but we did not care or expect any, there was nothing we did not like.
One of the nicest places ever. The location is amazing, the hotel is a lovely old building. Room was small but cozy and clean. Food was great, they use a lot of local and fresh products, food was very tasteful and there were 3 alternatives for vegetarians. Dogs are welcome, which was really nice. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We will definitely come again!

FinlandThis picturesque hotel is a must-go when you drive through Sweden. The owners are the most warm-hearted, and the cabin in which we stayed, melted our hearts by the cozyness. The village is quite small, but when looking for a superb place to recharge yourself, visit Smålandsgården.
