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.).

We are sorry if the breakfast did not entirely meet your personal taste.

Verified reviewGreat location, huge rooms. Nice facilities and breakfast.
Sauna/Steam was only open for 4hrs during the day, so you have to plan around their schedule in the afternoon/evening. Steam room was very weak, thermostat needs to be turned up.
Hello, dear friends, We sincerely thank you for your visit and are very pleased to hear that you were mostly satisfied with your stay. The opening hours of our wellness center are as follows: on Fridays and Saturdays from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, and from Sunday to Thursday from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Our saunas are generally used by fewer guests, but upon request, we are happy to turn on the saunas outside the regular operating hours (4:00 PM to 8:00 PM). Experience shows that these times are suitable for 99 percent of our guests. It´s a pity that you didn´t reach out to the reception with your request during your stay. Thank you for your understanding! We would be delighted to welcome you again in the future! Team Chateau Cihelny

Verified reviewThe hotel is located in a wonderful position, especially in this period of the year with the snow. The staff is really kind and professional. The SPA is clean and relaxing. The 3 saunas are wonderful.
The temperature of the water in the swimming pool was a bit low. The double bed has a not so comfortable mattress.

Verified reviewHuge comfortable rooms, quiet and green area near Karlovy vary (10mins car ride). Good SPA area, a bit cold water in the swimming pool, atleast for our preferences.
The restaurant food was not perfect, and the staff there is not qualified. The staff barely knows english. There isn't much to do in the area, so more than 3nights are excess.
Dear Guests, Thank you for your review and for choosing our hotel, Chateau Cihelny, for your stay. We are delighted that you enjoyed the comfort of our rooms and the peaceful, green surroundings of the hotel. We also appreciate your feedback regarding our wellness center. We apologize if the water temperature in the pool did not meet your preferences. Our beautiful pool, measuring 14 x 6 meters and offering panoramic views of the chateau park, is designed as a swimming pool. The water temperature of 29 degrees Celsius is, in our opinion, the most suitable for this activity. We understand that preferences can vary, especially if you are accustomed to higher temperatures in relaxation pools. As an alternative, we offer a whirlpool with warmer water next to the pool, which is perfect for relaxation. Regarding the restaurant, we are very sorry that the food did not meet your expectations and that you felt the staff was not sufficiently qualified. We believe, however, that our staff is well-equipped linguistically to serve guests in English and German. Nevertheless, we take this feedback seriously and will work on improving both the quality of our services and the language skills of our team. Our guests typically familiarize themselves with the location of our hotel when selecting their accommodation. They choose our hotel precisely for its tranquil setting in beautiful and pristine nature. Once here, they enjoy our lovely wellness center, which includes a pool, whirlpool, saunas, and fitness area, or indulge in other services such as massages or beauty treatments. The surrounding area offers countless opportunities for excursions to cultural landmarks and, in the summer months, various sports activities, including golf, cycling, and walking. For example, the romantic train journey from our hotel takes just 11 minutes to reach the pedestrian zone in Karlovy Vary! Thank you for your suggestions, and we look forward to the opportunity to welcome you again in the future. Kind regards, The Chateau Cihelny Hotel Team

Verified reviewI was really pleased with the hotel, the beautiful location, our room, the SPA with several saunas.
We had to book a significantly more expensive deluxe room in order to bring our dog. I would appreciate if there was an option with a basic room with a pet. The spa opening times could also have been a little more generous for the ones arriving in the evening.

Verified reviewIt’s was a very beautiful hotel with friendly staff.
Sauna is only open between 16:00 - 20:00 so I wasn’t able to use it in the morning nor in the evening upon arrival (but the pool was open until 22:00). They claim it’s pet friendly but was told to carry my dog up and down the stairs. Breakfast was very basic
Hello, dear guests, thank you for your feedback. We are very pleased that you appreciated the beauty of our hotel and the friendly attitude of the staff. Based on the experience and requests of our guests, we have evaluated the most suitable operating hours of the sauna as 16:00-20:00. This is about both the comfort of our guests and energy efficiency. And this information is available on the booking website. Regarding the pet policy, we believe that there must have been a misunderstanding or a language barrier. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. We are sorry that we did not completely meet your tastes at breakfast. However, we believe we offer a wide and varied breakfast range, including eggs, cold cuts, cheese, pastries, cakes, fruit, vegetables, cereals, yoghurt and even smoked salmon, for example. Last but not least, the menu also includes hot and cold drinks - coffee, tea and various types of Granini juices. We are sorry that the offer did not suit you. Thank you for your visit and we hope to welcome you back in the future. Best regards, Team Château Cihelny
