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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

Swedenhectic checkin as ppl where busy in restaurant, thats ok, challenging for customer as well since basic info was missed - a small one pager on the room can solve this. one person a bit to grumpy, kind of refuse to try speak english (is this a thing in Austria?!) - i get that its end of season but i pay €400 for one night and expect not to get this. i didn’t get the feeling they care for guests coming back - and they might not need to due to location but word travels…
amazing view from the room. young waiters super friendly and welcoming, people serving food and taking away also know hospitality.

United StatesThe views are stunning. After the crowds leave for the day, it is very cozy up on top of the mountain. The staff was very helpful. Make sure you bring everything you need up the mountain with you. You have to pay each time you use the two gondolas up the mountain.

BelgiumWalking to 5 fingers 😅, and menu bit too simple. Probably understandable too.
Everything was amazing, view, people and the room. For sure would recommend to stay and book room with the view. Especially thanks to the people working there. They made our stay even more special and comfortable.

BelgiumThe accommodation is pricey - but considering the breathtaking, out-of-this-world location it is worthwhile!
The location is absolutely amazing! On the top of the mountain, just beside the cable car. The view from the rooms, the restaurant and the sun terrace is wonderful. A few minutes’ walk away there is the perfect spot to marvel at the sunset and sunrise. Great starting point for hiking routes and via ferratas. The food is very good by all standards - even the choice for breakfast is good - there are fresh fruit and veggies. The staff is super friendly.

United StatesWe weren’t aware of the cable car schedule in advance of our stay which would have been helpful for planning our trip from the US to Krippenstein. Luckily we made the last cable car by 10 mins, but had we not made it, we would have been out of luck. Also, the beds were somewhat uncomfortable for us but that’s a personal preference and is subjective.
The location is just absolutely insane and the staff is extremely helpful.

CanadaNo concerns at all with the property. Our only issue was that it was a bit challenging getting to the cable car - we walked quite a ways and had trouble getting a taxi, but it was a holiday. We also did not realize that there was a bus to get there from Obertraun. We also booked our return train too early as we did not realize when the cable car started in the morning, how long it would take to get down and then the additional walk/taxi/bus to the train station - bad planning on our part.
The location was amazing with the most incredible views of Hallstatt, the Alps and the glacier. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly, providing ice packs for our daughter who hurt her foot earlier in our trip. Breakfast was very good. Meeting the friendly roaming sheep was a bonus. The cable car ride up was also beautiful. It can get a bit crowded during busy times, but on the way down the next morning, we almost had the whole car to ourselves.
