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...).

AustraliaWould be nice if there was a kettle and cup in the room (not sure if this needs to be rented as I haven’t tried)
Budget friendly, great breakfast buffet. Königssee is only 10 min walk. Clean and comfortable room.

AustraliaThere are no glasses for brush tooth or cups to make tea or coffee in the evening, bed is not thick enough, it's ok for a couple days stay, view is irreplaceable.
Friendly staff, we were allowed to check in a little earlier than check-in time, and the room is very clean, enough to sleep after a tiring day. Breakfast items have very good variety. Room with tiny balcony, we are lucky enough to face the mountains with beautiful view to enjoy early morning. With a nice cuppa would be perfect, unfortunately it is not available like other hotels.

Czech RepublicIf you are more than 165cm, avoid 3rd floor rooms at all. The balcony door has just 165cm, for real. I cann't even remember how many times i hit my head there. The balcon itself allows at mx 180cm height. lower floors are probably better. There is no toothcup or any glass in the bathroom. The room service is like 1-2x per week ? Not an issue for me but you should be aware.
The rooms are good, if you are there just for sleep, breakfast is pretty standard, as many people wrote already, scrambled eggs are of your own making, evening it is possible to get there some light dinner. Staff is good. The locality is probably the best thing about this hotel. There is lot of options around for which you don't even need to move by car, you can start right at the hotel. It is also probably the cheapest hotel around. Given the price it is good choice.

NetherlandsSome partnerships with local bicycle and walking gear shops would be good. I was directed to Intersport in Konigsee, but actually the sport shop at the Jennerbahn has more choice.
Good sport and family hotel, clean rooms and a lot of breakfast options. For cyclists, there are great secure lockers to keep your bikes and gear overnight.

The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring the mountains. My room was quite large, but with a low ceiling and poor lighting. The breakfast was good and the hotel staff was very helpful and friendly. I will stay in the same hotel if I decide to come again.
