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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The place is in the city, near the harbor, really nice place. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Our child liked the warm pool and brought us coffee every morning from downstairs where you can drink coffee for free.

The sauna is located at the men's shower area. This makes it uncomfortable and allow people to use the shower for other purposes, even for couples, as my boyfriend saw and heard. The room is quite tight. So maybe the bed could be arranged in a more functional way.
The hotel is situated very close to the Stora Torget. Several pubs and restaurants are available nearby, which is very good. Free parking lot on the weekends is available three blocks away.

Other than the location and price, it's not much to rave about. The beds are not the most comfortable, the breakfast is not the best and the facilities are in need of a renovation. But, considering the price you're paying, it lives up the expectations.
The best parts about this hotel are the low price and excellent location, only about a five minute walk from the train station and close to the city center for restaurants and other needed services. Complimentary coffee, tea and biscuits in the hotel lobby.

The hotel was a bit dated and looked nicer in the photos. It was a bit too expensive for what you got. The breakfast wasn't very impressive. The scrambled eggs were watery and the bread was dry.
Good location, friendly staff.

Tired interior, not the cleanest rooms, spare variety of choices for vegan diet - except for plant based milk and yoghurt nothing else on buffet and nothing more available from kitchen either on request. Would appreciate for future more vegan breakfast options like vegan spreads, cheese or cold cuts.

On a personal note the beds where a bit too soft for us, although this is not a criticism of the Hotel as they have to find a happy medium for their guests.
Breakfast was plentiful and varied and the Hotel provided a takeaway option if you where planning on going out at Breakfast time. Th location was perfect for us, east to walk to amenities, restaurants and sites.

The only thing was the size of the rooms, I had a double bed, but the size of the room was for a single bed and there was no place for a suitcase in the closet.
The Hotel has a great location, you have good access to the city center. the staff were friendly the breakfast and the room cleanness were good.
