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 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 only thing I didn't like was not related to the hotel itself. The area around the hotel has a lot of traffic particularly during the week. In fact, one might call it a mad house. Perhaps not like Rome in the old days but some attention to cars is warranted more so than in other Swiss cities I've been in.
The location is convenient to the the main train station. The view from my room was the station. Not pretty but convenient. I was concerned by traffic noise but the room was extremely quiet. The room was small with not much room to maneuver around the bed, but it was comfortable and the shower was excellent. The breakfast was typical of similar hotels and adequate but not noteworthy. I didn't pay for it for the whole period soI got it some mornings and not others depending on my schedule. I used the room safe and the batteries died one day and they were replaced in less than an hour. Lots of restaurants within a short walk of the hotel that cover a variety of genres and prices is always a good thing.

AustraliaWe were only in Geneva for 2 nights as a stop over between France and Italy, commuting by train. As it was a short stay we wanted something comfortable but close to the station. This stay exceeded our expectations. Rooms were modern, large and with aircon. It was right across from the station so after a 4.5 train from Paris, it was so easy to get off the train and walk directly across the road and check in. The main area where the restaraunts and shops are is only a 5-10 minute walk from the hotel. We also did a day trip back to France while in Geneva and the bus stop was 3 minutes away. Perfect location and very comfortable. If I go back to Geneva would certainly stay again.

United StatesLocated right across the train station and an easy walk into the old part of the city. Surrounded by restaurants and close to grocery stores. We arrived early and they were nice enough to let us check in since the room was ready. Front desk also very helpful to give us a map of the city and explain to us some highlights and how to get around. Room was clean and mostly quiet even though we were facing the street and across from the station which was nice.

Hotel Bernina was a fantastic surprise find. I booked it for a one night layover in Geneva, and it turned out to be such a nice and comfortable place to stay near the Geneva station. The front desk team was extremely helpful and friendly, the facilities stylish and clean, and importantly - our room was artfully decorated, updated (modern) and quiet with very comfortable bedding. The hotel has a nice sitting area or reading room on the main floor, which was nice to sit in, and a cozy dining hall for breakfast service. The location across Gare de Geneve was our initial reason for staying there, but this hotel stands out among the other hotels in the area that I've stayed at.

United Arab EmiratesI stayed at this hotel for a night, and it was a fantastic experience. The location is ideal, just across from the train station, making it incredibly convenient for getting around. The hotel itself was spotless, and I had a very comfortable sleep. What stood out the most, however, was the excellent customer service. A special mention goes to Sami, who went above and beyond to assist me with my luggage when I was struggling. He also ensured I got a taxi to the airport, making my departure stress-free. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Geneva.

United StatesThe solution for hanging clothes was not ideal - a few hangers around a shelf. It worked out OK for me, as I didn't need to hang but 1 thing. But just a thing to note if staying for business and hoping to hang nice clothes. Also, could've used a small stand or stool in the bathroom to hold clothes/towels instead of putting on countertop.
The Bernini was the perfect spot for a few night stop over prior to an international flight. Yes, the room was on the small side, but that's to be expected in a European city. Bonus was the mini fridge, as it was quite hot the two days I was visiting. There are a few grocery stores nearby, so grabbing essentials was super easy. The hotel is located right across from the train station, which I thought would be loud but it wasn't. Blackout curtains were amazing, so I had no issues with sleeping. The pub next door was a hot spot for happy hour or a late night drink, and the food was rather decent too. Would definitely stay here again.
