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...).

Chantal was very generous with her time and "voluntarily" helped us with parking fine problem and she fixed the problem for us. We are very grateful for that. The room was charming, however it is in a very old building so the room was a bit small, as expected. But is in the heart of old town, great location.

AustraliaWe loved this property! Clean, comfy bed, well equipped kitchen and lovely owner, so close to the castle! Bus from railway station to the old town is a short distance, runs frequently and waits at the station. Beautiful views of a gorgeous area.

SwitzerlandHard to pick something, I would add a humidifier/proper ventilation in the bathroom, as there is the smell of humidity.
Awesome location, a cozy design (pictures are worse than the room in reality), and a very friendly owner. The location is also great.

United States of AmericaThis is not an issue with the property but the flies were a constant nuisance. We questioned the food from the restaurants in Gruyère due to the amount of flies in the evening.
We loved the location right in the middle of the old town with beautiful scenery out of every window. The rooms had old wooden beams and the bed was a nice queen size. Each room had a separate bathroom with a nice Swiss-made hair dryer.

United States of AmericaLeaving.
This is a pleasing, well decorated room hosted by a kind, fun, and helpful woman. The bed was large and comfortable. The shower had good hot water. We appreciated having a small fridge, electric kettle, and espresso machine with capsules. The location is wonderful, right in the heart of this small historic town, lively by day and quiet at night. Window has a nice view. We loved the scenic mountain hiking on Moleson.

AustraliaIt was all lovely! We had no problems.
The location was incredible; so beautiful! lt is within the town fortified by castle walls and close to both the castle and the Maison de Gruyères. The Maison Cailler was only an hour walk away. The room was also very close to some beautiful nature views. Chantal was very welcoming and accomodating and speaks English well

United States of AmericaThe apartment is just by "the chalet" meaning you are right at the end of the street. It was a nice terrace that would be lovely on other seasons, we could not enjoy due that it is cold and snowing. The apartment has so many artistic details, but the cherry in the pie are Chantal and Stephan. So nice, so welcoming, so inviting! we definitaly want to come back, and stay there again if we can!!!
