How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe views of the lake are priceless! We could sit at our balcony all morning! The ferry is right at our doorsteps. We reached early and were very blessed to be given an early check in. We were offered complimentary breakfast as well. Really the highlight of our 3 week road trip of Austria!
The room and toilet were the smallest we had. We had with us a large and medium size suitcase. On hindsight, would be more comfortable if we had packed smaller bags for our stay and leave the rest in the car. Just to note: Parking is a shared public space. As the property is next o a public park, might be challenging to get spaces. This didn’t affect us. The hotel provides a parking ticket that allows use of several parking spaces within Obertraun which is useful if you are exploring the area.

Verified reviewThe hotel is fine with a stunning view to the lake. Location is very good, the hotel is just a couple of minutes walking distance from the railway station.
There is no shed for bicycles. Bikes can be locked to the fence inside the garden, i.e. they can be kept secure, but not dry (providing you have a bike lock).

Verified reviewThe location
It was quite disappointed with my stay at this b&b. The room and common areas were not properly cleaned, which made the stay uncomfortable. It was also very noisy, making it difficult to relax or get a good night’s sleep. Considering the lack of cleanliness and the constant noise, I found the price much too high for what was offered. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place.
Dear Giuliano ! thanks for your stay. We apologize for inconvenience caused at night time from other guest, especially caused by one room upstairs.

Verified reviewBeautiful location overlooking Hallstatt.
Very basic for the price paid. No kettle (which we knew about from other reviews) or fan (room very stuffy in hot weather. We had trouble opening the window in one room due to a broken blind withou midges coming in)- place could do with updating. Also name was confusing as it’s called something else to the title.
dear guest ! thanks for your stay. we apologize for your experience. we will have a look for your announced details inside both rooms.

Bad experience, no facilities, unfriendly staff.
yours guest ! you made a last minute reservation for 7 people. You made a room reservation without any aditional service and without breakfast. You were entering the breakfast room and were helping yourself at our breakfast / tea buffet. You told to the proberty stuff you will not pay more than 1 € for each person for tea. This kind of attitude we do not appreciate. We appreciate all guest to come to our breakfast room to have tea or coffee if you pay our regular given price. You can not go inside a breakfast restaurant and tell them your preffered price range for to have a tea or coffee. We have been friendly to you all the time. You were getting rude to the breakfast stuff by throwing everything on the buffet table. We do not appreciate your aggressive style !

Verified reviewThe place was nice overall. Self-check-in was smooth, and the instructions were very clear, it was easy and stress-free to enter. The location is good, and the price matches the quality.
The only downside was that the bathroom door didn’t close properly the lock seemed broken. But apart from that, the space itself was fine and comfortable.
Yours guest ! thanks for your stay and for your given feedback. You forgot some clothes / jacket in your room. We were providing a pick up parcel service for you. We prepared a box for your cothes and were glueing your tracking number on the parcel. DHL has to come 2 times for to pick the parcel up at our proberty as they were arriving in the afternoon. Inisde your given review it would have been wonderful to show some appreciation for this free given service to you. It makes us dissapointing that you did not mentioned it at all. Anyway thanks for your given message that the locker of the bathroom door was not working.
