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.).

United StatesWe stayed in August (it was hot) and the room could have used a fan to move some air. But it wasn't terrible.
The location is perfect, the staff extremely friendly and the value for the property vs. cost was quite high. It was a short walk to all the best places but not too loud.

AustraliaThe check in hours weren't as advertised, the front door was locked and the door bell didn't work. We had to make a couple of attempts to call them to get the door opened. Additionally, when I had to write my email address, I was told to write it again so it's readable. Staff otherwise lovely. I suggest having ear plugs if a light sleeper and early to bed.
The room was large and a lovely design, and it is nicely in the old town. They also put a lovely typical Swiss breakfast on. I was concerned about having a shared bathroom but they were very clean.

United KingdomThe full picture of ThunFest was left until rather late on from Dana. We would've appreciated knowing instantly that we were booking at a particular moment, as once we knew the full picture, it really affected our decisions over budget and what we could do. Switzerland is beautiful but if you're a regular traveller like us it is also a place you really need to organise yourself for. There is certainly a language barrier about the bits & pieces, and we paid 100SwF+/- for stuff that could've been avoided had there been better comms. To those who don't have deep pockets, hearing "Switzerland is an expensive place" in a deadpan voice is not a comfort but a serious choice between buying from a co-op and going out for a meal. Luckily we could enjoy the geography, which was exceptional. Another issue was the true nature of ThunFest being revealed in stages. We had booked way in advance but were informed far closer to the time about the nature of music being played late into the early morning. Had we known early on, we could've booked somewhere else. We didn't really understand the full picture until it was too late to rebook at a reasonable price. This felt quite upsetting, but as mentioned in the positives, once meeting Dana we realise it was not necessarily deliberate as she was helpful face-to-face. The issue was we had kids and the noise was exceptional. The attitude was "you are here and it is what it is" but better comms could have been established and we could have saved a lot of money to give our children - and us - sleep. Finally when we got there the passes to travel had not been sent through BOOKINGS.COM correctly, but neither side had anticipated this, so when we most needed it, we had to pay 30SwFrancs more. Overall we had to pay SwFr150 more because of bad communication generally (parking, buses, city options & alternative accommodation once we knew the sitrep).
Staff were kind, considerate and supportive of our stay. Dana was easy to communicate with once we were there and Josephine at breakfast was a highlight for both us and the kids. We appreciated the many positive things on offer with staying in Thun.

NetherlandsVery good experience! Great location. Very clean and with good energy. We have asked for a quiet room (not looking into the street) and such was given. It was very clam and quiet even though the hotel is located just next to the main square. The location is perfect - close to every attraction, up to 10 min to train station, few min from bus stops. Curtains are available and light was not waking us up. Beds and pillows could be better (too soft was us) but the amazing breakfast (pics below) and very friendly and helpful staff was making up for it. So we can't complain about anything. Perfect for few days stay.

SwitzerlandI didn’t get the room I booked (double room with queen bed, single use) bur rather a single bed at same price. I am fairly tall, so usually book a bigger bed. However, I had a comfortable enough night.
This hotel was in an old building renovated in an attractive, somewhat ‘alternative’ style throughout. Very good breakfast which was served individually. The staff/owners were friendly and helpful. Location in the centre of the old town was excellent.
