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 location is truly the only thing to like
The accommodation was shocking. There is no toilet or shower in the room, you have to share with the rest of the rooms on the floor. There was toilet paper constantly on the floor of the bathroom and in the hall. The smell was shocking. Myself and my daughter were booked in for 3 night, we left after 2
Dear Guest, Thank your comments and please note that you reserved the room with sharing bathroom, it was your reservation. It was mentionned in your confirmation that the rooms were with sharing shower. Please note that every day, we clean the toilet and shower. Sometimes customers don't respect that its another customer than use the same W.C. You never mentionned to us the problem, we can propose you a rooms with private shower and .WC We have only 3 rooms per floor, that sharing the shower but in every single floor we have showers. Best regards. HOTEL ST GERVAIS

Verified reviewA simple and basic hotel in a good location. The rooms are clean and the lift is a lifesaver, especially with luggage.
There's no air conditioning — which can be a bit uncomfortable in the heat.

Verified reviewLocation was excellent, moments from the Cornavin bus and train station.
No air conditioning, at the price we paid, feels unreasonable. The check-in desk also closed at 4, which felt very early - there were no employees available after this point.

Verified reviewThe location of the hotel is excellent, it's within walking distance to many of the city's sights, and there is a tram and bus stop close by. The room was a bit small but serviceable, having a sink in the room is quite helpful when the main bathroom is shared. The attendant at the reception desk was very nice and gave us some good recommendations on where to eat breakfast.
The whole hotel felt quite dingier than the pictures would portray. The hallways also smelled of tobacco, which did not contribute to the feel of the place. The cleanliness of the shared bathroom left quite a lot to be desired; there was toilet paper on the floor, the air extractor was covered in dust(not sure if it was even working), and overall, I could not in any way describe the bathroom as clean. The room was also way too hot and stuffy; there was no air conditioning in the room, but there was a small fan that we kept running the whole time to make being in the room somewhat bearable.
