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 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 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.).

United KingdomSwitzerland is expensive but compared to other places we have stayed this was more. You have a beautiful view but plastic garden chairs on the balcony. Towels looking a little old and my mattress and bed needing updating.
The view is why you pick here and to be a little out of town away from everyone. Nice and quiet and secluded. The restaurant serves really good food and would 100% recommend eating there.

AustraliaI was given a price for my room, which J shared in the end. I wrote many messages, to inform of the extra person and not once was I told my price would double. We spent lots of extra money on 2 dinners and wine, but when it came time to pay the bill promised at booking, it had doubled. In CHF it's a lot of extra money for sharing a twin bedroom. Anyway, I would have expected prior warning and a chance to check the extra cost of a 2nd person.
I intended to stay solo and then given a particular circumstance, my son was able to join me. The location and experience of finding it to be snowing at the top of the gondola was wonderful. The staff, however, were gruff and confrontational.

JapanIt is very accessible during ski season, you can get there with bus 121 every 15 minutes. But it is a bit difficult to approach when ski season ended.
It is a ten minute bus ride by bus 121.So it is a quiet place to take a rest from the crowd.

AustraliaThe property is a bit out of the town which if we'd have known we probably would have chosen something else closer. The only other thing I'd say is that on arrival we weren't made to feel very welcome by the lady that eventually greeted us. We felt she was quite abrupt.
The property was lovely, was right on the road but this wasn't an issue. Our room overlooked the mountains which was beautiful. Room was a good size, nice and big and clean. Bathroom was lovely and clean, great water pressure. They still use shower curtains which we are not used to but at least this one was clean. The waitresses there were so lovely. The language barrier was a little difficult at first but we got through this. The breakfast was adequate but not heaps. Although we didn't have dinner there, the restaurant was always busy so we are presuming it was good food, just expensive.

TaiwanThe room I booked and paid for from the hotel is the most expensive and best room with a terrace view. But I actually stayed in a room that was not like this for the first night, and the next day the hotel automatically helped me change the original room type. It means that the money paid on the first night does not match the actual residence. I don't know why.
The landscape is really beautiful.

United StatesRooms are comfortable but need updating. The staff is so busy with their duties, including running their restaurant, that I wasn’t able to get much helpful touring and hiking advice. Distant location from town center, and limited bus service, requires a car.
The property is in a beautiful and peaceful location, with stunning views for rooms facing the front. Restaurant is good by Grindelwald standards (only fair by international standards), for both lunch and dinner.
