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.).

IsraelThe reception is only open until 20:00, and if you arrive later you need to inform the hotel in advance to receive a code that will allow you to take the key out of a box located at the entrance of the hotel. The hotel does not have a pool, spa, or gym.
A small and pleasant hotel located in a pastoral village called: Horw, adjacent to Lucerne, less than fifteen minutes drive away. For those who do not have a car, there is a bus stop right in front of the hotel entrance that goes to Lucerne's main station and is free for hotel guests. For car owners, the hotel offers free parking. The hotel staff is very nice and helpful, the rooms are relatively small, but well equipped, clean and comfortable. The shower and bathroom are spacious, and the beds in the room are comfortable. The breakfast is very good and varied. All in all, this is a very good value for the price.

United StatesIf I had to nitpick, the bedrooms and main hotel spaces were very overheated. We tried turning down the thermostat in our room, but to no avail. Kept waking up in a pile of sweat. Only thing that helped was keeping the windows open. They would also run out of croissants before 9 am every day. They were obviously a popular items and Felmis should have responded by ordering more croissants. We were twice disappointed during our three day stay.
Spotless room, comfortable bed, staff that went above and beyond, in-room fridge, wonderful included hotel breakfast (great selections), and delicious onsite restaurant with great food and service. Plus the FREE bus tickets to downtown Lucerne and back.

United KingdomDuring our second visit to the restaurant there was a party of people whom the Manager obviously knew + was very attentive to. He would attend to other tables as well but this appeared very tokenistic - he came to our table twice + asked if we needed anything after our dinner? We asked for more drinks but he never brought them. We gave up asking in the end + decided to go elsewhere.
We were in Room 14 on the first floor. It is a corner room at the front of the hotel with a large balcony at the side. We didn't hear any road noise. The room was clean & spacious with a large, comfy bed, 2 comfy chairs + table. The shower was powerful. There was a safe + a fridge. We didn't use the coffee machine as it was pods. Air con worked very well. Breakfast was buffet style & all fresh. Staff were very friendly & quick to refill any items. We ate in the restaurant on 2 evenings. The food was very good, fresh + homemade. Restaurant staff on the first occasion were friendly & attentive. Plenty of parking across the road but bus stop is directly across the road and No. 21 goes to Lucerne every 30 minutes.

United StatesThe day we checked out, there was a broke down car on the bus route and we had to wait about 40 min to get one to go to Luzern main station. I doubt this is common but it does highlight that the bus experience is key to the hotel experience. Obviously the hotel had no involvement or connection with this.
Phenomenal hotel! The main draw here was the room with AC (proper wall unit) and a killer breakfast. Both delivered. We arrived in Luzern a bit early but needed to drop our bags. The front desk was more than happy to help us get checked in and said they would take our bags to our room. However, just a few minutes later they informed us our room was ready to go. So we were super happy to get settled in. After a good nights sleep due to the nice Air Conditioner, the included breakfast was one of the best we had overall in Switzerland. Everything you can imagine was available...cooked eggs and bacon, sliced meat, local cheese, veggies, several yogurts, lots of bread choices, self-service (great) coffee, desserts. They even had prosecco to make a mimosa (should you want to start your day out right!). The main compromise of the hotel is that you must take a bus to get between central Luzern and the hotel. Bus 21 drops right at the hotel. You can get it going either direction for about the same amount of time (requires a transfer in 1 direction). So it arrives about every 15 min. You will want to budget 20-30 min per trip depending on wait time. Additionally, the bus can take you to the S4/S5 train nearby to get to the start of Mt Pilatus. The bus runs late in the evening and fairly early in the morning. Some people may find this to be too much waiting around but we felt that this hotel is worth it, compared to the hot, noisy, just-as-expensive, no breakfast alternatives in the city. If you had a car, this hotel would an incredibly fantastic choice for the region.

Clean hotel with comfortable room. Plenty of free parking for hotel guests in other side of road. Location is about 20 min bus ride away from central Luzern, bus goes every half hour and runs until midnight. Bus stop just next to hotel. Hotel provides Luzern visitor card for guests so bus is free to use. Hotel breakfast good. Hotel staff was very helpful and with their instructions it was easy to do Mount Pilatus golden roumd trip.
