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 StatesThe breakfast buffet was simple, adequate but compared to our other 3 hotels on this trip uninspired. The hotel had dated decor. The elevator broke the day of arrival and we were on a higher floor, that stair climb after walking all day was a bit of a let down. It was repaired the next work day however.
This hotel is right next to the main train station, but noise is not an issue. The area is very quiet and we could keep the windows open without any problem from transportation or people. We had a lovely view of the river and our room was very large. It was super clean which is very important to me. Our room was ready on arrival, so we were allowed to go to the room. It was a very easy walk to the main street of Interlaken, the boat launch was next door and the Harder Kulm funicular about a 5 minute walk.

SwitzerlandI was expecting a room with a view on the lakeside but unfortunately it was on the other side.
The location is very nice. Good for value. Although the hotel is very old but still clean and maintained in shape. The hotel is a family business. The decoration gave me a chance to live in the past.

Indiaveriety of foods option are limited on the breakfast table !!!
The Location is the perfect one !! Just next to Interlaken OST station. you can board the train and boat as per your convenience . We had Swiss pass for 4 days to roam around swizerland, so this was an ideal place to catch the train. Rooms are specious. Staff are good, only issue i had was with the breakfast. My expectation was bit high .. options for foods were bit limited. Otherwise !!! everything was perfect.

AustraliaBecause the building was so old, I could hear the people upstairs very clearly. It is certainly impossible to control a group of tourists who stomp all night with no regard for others, but this is something to be aware. Could not hear the trains or road from the room.
Service was exceptional. Rooms were certainly old but didn’t feel unsafe or uncomfortable. Good bed with the usual flat pillows in Europe (not to my liking). Breakfast was extensive, croissants, fresh bread rolls, tea and coffee, turkey ham, cheeses, juices, yoghurt, boiled eggs. Able to store luggage before and after your stay in a safe location.

BrazilThe hotel seems to have been glorious in the past, but it is way past due a renovation. I think about it as a classic hotel and we've grown accustomed to refined spaces now. For example, the room lacks power sockets on both sides of the bed, which is a must have these days. The breakfast is simple but with high quality products.
Surely the cleanliness of the hotel in general and the room. Everything was pristine. The location is also top notch, with both good restaurants and a big supermarket in a walking distance, fulfilling all sorts of budgets.

IsraelThe hotel building is old, the keys are old-fashioned, and the floor is a bit squeaky and noisy.
After reading the reviews, I was afraid it wouldn't be clean, but the sheets were very clean, towels were replaced every day, and even when we forgot to wash our own dishes, they cleaned them for us. Yes, the hotel is old, but compared to other places in the area, you get a lot for the price. The view from the room was great, and it had a lot of space. The location is perfect and saves a lot of time in the morning, as the routes to all the popular destinations pass through Interlaken Ost.

United StatesI asked for a quiet room, unfortunately the train traffic was at times loud. Would have been better to have a room on the other side of the hall. Also, the noise level was a bit high due to common dealings.

SwitzerlandThe bed height was a bit low. And the mattress was too soft to my liking. I could hear the other guests open their doors, as the key are still old fashioned and not modern with card reader. But it wasn't too bothersome. The mirror in the bathroom is not made for tall people, my friend is 184cm and had to 'duck' a bit. I was fine (I'm 170cm) For the rest really loved the stay!
Almost everything! Beautiful surroundings. great location, walking distance from town center, and a nice stroll to the lake. Very nice room and excellent view! Quite spacious. Breakfast room beautiful. Nice food continental and not heavy like an english or american breakfast. Free parking upfront. And if no space available; the alternative paying parking is not that expensive (it is free of charge between 19.00 and 7.00).
