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):
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.).

The hosts were incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about our comfort throughout the entire stay. Breakfasts were delightful – fresh, tasty, and served with a warm smile every morning. It was the perfect way to start each day. And the surroundings? Simply breathtaking. The area is full of natural beauty, peaceful and serene – ideal for anyone looking to relax or explore the outdoors. We left with full hearts and beautiful memories.

IrelandNo air-conditioning meant the room got pretty warm (this was at the end of June). Obertraun itself, you're limited in terms of restaurants and bars.
The hosts are incredibly warm, welcoming and helpful. They just seem like extremely nice, genuine people. The room was clean, spacious with a balcony that provided an incredible view. It's very close to Obertraun train station and the lake. Might be the type of place that's better if you have a car but we got around just fine renting out bikes to get to Hallstatt, other parts of the lake and the surrounding area.

United KingdomThere is nothing to dislike.
We stayed at Haus Salzkristall for two nights on our extensive European road trip. I highly recommend it without hesitation and would love stay again if we return to the area. The house and garden, in a peaceful setting are beautiful and so relaxing, the room was perfect and breakfast excellent. Thomas & Franziska were the perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble for them to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. A definite 5 stars from me.

The hosts were so hospitable and warm, and made our stay so special. The room was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The breakfast was lovely and one of the hosts even baked us chocolate chip cookies, which we were lucky enough to take on the road! Location is also lovely - just steps away from the lake and close proximity to other popular areas such as Hallstat but with a local and peaceful feel that felt like a home away from home.

United StatesNo complaints of any kind. Was very happy with our choice to stay at Haus Salzkristall and our time spent both in Obertraun by the lake and site seeing in Hallstatt.
The hosts, Thomas and Franziska were very friendly, very helpful in suggesting restaurants, local sites to see, etc. The hotel was very clean, water pressure excellent, HOT shower, breakfast was very good and we enjoyed staying at their facility. Outside the room was an honor system for beverages (BEER!!!), tea, snacks, etc. My wife is very particular about hotels, particularly cleanliness and she was very, very pleased. You know the saying “Happy Wife, Happy Life”. We would strongly recommend Haus Salzkristall if you visit Hallstatt, Austria, they are across the lake in Obertraun, a short drive or you can take a boat there and back.
