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 lake was so beautiful from our balcony! Definitely worth getting a lake view. We did not mind the short walk into town at all.

United KingdomI was irritated by the fact that - having paid for breakfast - the hotel wanted an additional 17 swiss francs to have an omelette or to have my eggs fried. That is scandalous and totally unnecessary.
The location is stunning - the best in all Lugano! Also I seem to have had the best room - 410 - the top and middle of the hotel.

SwedenThe very aggresive birds in the utdoor breakfast place, I would recommend to find solution in order to avoid the risk of customers sharing their food with the birds. Parking was not available as expected - however the hotel was helpful finding some kind of a "solution"
Very nice room, with exceptional wiev on the lake and mountains. If you like swimming this hotel is ideal: Just at the lakefront, has own some kind of a pontoon in short swimming distance from the hotel. Additionally even a nice swimming pool. Overall the ambiente of the hotel was super meeting a four star Swiss hotel. The breakfast was amazing wide variety and good quality.

Hong KongThe breakfast at Hotel Lido Seegarten is truly impressive—not only for its wide variety and well-curated selection, but also for the stunning view overlooking Lake Lugano. Enjoying such diverse offerings in a peaceful lakeside setting makes for a perfect, relaxing start to the day. Additionally, the local transportation pass provided as a complimentary benefit is outstanding. It not only offers free transportation but also saves valuable time for travellers by simplifying travel arrangements, making the overall experience even more convenient and enjoyable.

United StatesFood situation is strange for a hotel this size. You cannot get any food at all between 2:30PM and 7:00PM. The website says that they have food in the bar, but they do not have any food in the bar after 2:30PM for the rest of the night. You have to go down the street to one of the cafes to get anything to eat. And room service is only available when the restaurant is open after 7PM or at lunch. Naturally we arrived at 2:30 and were out of luck! We knew that the parking was far, but at least they have parking now.
Excellent staff in the restaurants and in the bar. Nice breakfast. Beautiful view of the lake from the restaurants, the pool and the bar. The view from our room was also excellent. Organized front desk staff.

FranceDecoration of the room is a bit old. We had a family room with additional beds that were useless for us yet taking a lot of space. Depending on who is at the reception when you check in, you might not receive the indication that the parking is not included and that the canoe and standing paddle are not free. It is not a question of cost, it is a matter of clearly saying things at the time of check in.
Very comfortable bed and pillows. Fine cuisine, great cook, excellent breakfast with fresh orange juice. Canoe and standing paddle available (5 CHF) and of good quality.
