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.).

GuernseyThe check in time is late and the check out time is early sadly.
The room with the jacuzzi has very nice view out the balcony, spacious and comfortable! The hotel is situated conveniently across a shop, few steps away from the starting point of the hike to the lake and also the tourist center.

AustraliaIt felt a bit unloved - a curtain wasn’t fitted properly and some of the furnishings/decor was tired. Could have been a lot better with a little bit of effort put in to sprucing it up. There were neighbours close by to the bedroom who stayed up late socialising meaning we had to sleep with the windows closed - and there was no fan so the room was hot. The major issue for us , however, was that we were charged an extra $85 for a second person using the apartment - the issue was only brought up after we’d booked in, been shown the room, had unpacked and had a shower - ie too late to go anywhere else. The problem had been with booking.com who had listed the property in results for a search that was for accommodation for two then told the property it was a booking for one. Booking.com were dreadful at dealing with my complaints- I just got a robot reply. So overall we felt let down by booking.com and the owners which made our stay less enjoyable than it could have been
The apartment had a nice veranda overlooking a river and felt cosy. It was set back off the street. Good location in the centre of town with two supermarkets very near.

United KingdomI wasn't expecting the sauna to be paid for but I understand that if it is known to be busy, how important it may be to book in advance.
The pool was great, it was just us when we visited in the late afternoon.

United StatesWe had a great view from our room (with balcony) of the mountains. The room was spacious with a desk and chair, sofa and closet. The gentleman who checked us in patiently helped us out with parking since we had trouble with the parking app. The restaurant downstairs was excellent for dinner. There is a market across the street and another around the corner with fresh bread in the mornings. The walk up to the Oeschinensee gondola was easy from the property, and they gave us a pass for a discount. We took the train through the Lotschberg tunnel which was close by. Would love to come back and spend more time in Kandersteg. and would definitely stay here again.
