Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

NetherlandsAs all the other hotels, the pillows aren't so comfortable to support the neck. I advise you to arrange them properly to make it comfortable for yourself.
The room is so cozy, the interior design is absolutely gorgeous, being in that room gives me a good mood. The bathroom has all the things we needed, very modern and clean. The house on the outside looks like a typical Dutch house, but the inside is more modern than quite some hotels.

LatviaWhen you book, precisely specify room off the busy road. Road was too close to our windows as we are light sleepers. That was the only thing we did not like but again you are in town and dvantge is close proximity to all atractions of Dokkum.
Big room, nice decor, brand new facilities, coffee and tea facilities in the room.Fast internet, free parking. Very good communiction.Easy check in and out.Polite staff. Very much recommended.

United KingdomQuaint, quiet hotel in an excellent location by a scenic canal near the town centre. Plenty of parking spaces. Staff were very helpful. Breakfast was fine, but we had to ask for milk for the cereal + tea, as there was none out. Not a problem, as we were given some immediately. The Frisian cinnamon-sugar bread in the breakfast selection was really delicious with our tea / coffee.

AustriaA pretty old house right in the center of beautiful Dokkum. Rooms featuring many details and combining modern state of the art amenities with the historic charme of an old house to perfection. Staff was very friendly amd the restaurant offered creative cuisine with a local touch. For sure a top option when staying in Dokkum.

United States of AmericaYes, the rooms are large, clean, quiet, have excellent air conditioning, and superb showers. But what really sets the hotel apart is the service level provided by the outstanding staff. Every staff member we encountered was helpful, friendly, and kind. Oh yes….and the breakfast was terrific.

United KingdomNoisy. Even though it’s a new extension and well insulated the windows had vents on them, which, even when closed, let the road noise in.
Great location. Modern large room. Very spacious bathroom.

United KingdomNothing springs to mind.
I stumbled across Hotel Van Der Meer whilst working nearby in Dokkum and I have to say what a great place to stay. It's been modernised, the rooms are very stylish and comfortable, the staff are fantastic and friendly and the location in Dokkum superb just near the canal and drawer bridge. But best of all by far the wonderful food. Book now!
