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.).

United KingdomOur bathroom was a little oddly shaped, but that's the only negative I can recall.
An incredible location, perched on a mountain spur overlooking a charming little Black Forest valley town, by the ruins of an ancient castle. Glorious views from the rooms and the dining room. Exceptional service at check in and at meals. Excellent food. Rooms comfortable and peaceful. Lovely woodland hikes available straight from the door. The hotel will collect you from the train station if you phone them.

United StatesThe property was a charming building in a beautiful setting, with absolutely stunning views. The rooms were very pleasant. Bathrooms were clean and modern, and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the German duvets. The dining room was gorgeous, with delicious dinner menu and breakfast buffet. The owner and all staff were friendly, accommodating, and just very nice people all around. I highly recommend this hotel.

United StatesAn elevator would be nice, but not necessary. Hornberg town itself, needs more restaurants.
Idyllic location on the berg overlooking the small town of Hornberg. We have stayed here five or six times previously and it always feels like coming home, as the entire staff is so friendly and helpful. All requests are always fulfilled with a smile. Breakfast, in the beautifully windowed dining room, is a feast and the ability to make your own waffles is a tasty bonus. The immediate area offers great trails to hike up or down the mountain.

Dinner was excellent, location was great, staff was very friendly. We loved our stay here! It was a bonus that we could hike up the castle and also go inside! It felt very peaceful and cozy yet so close to everything by car.

BrazilAvoid at all costs being served by a blond young lady if you are having dinner at the property. Bear in mind that we were informed by the front desk that the last time for ordering food was 20:30h. The waitress kept coming to the table every 5 minutes to ask if we were ready to order food even when we had just said no (there were menus in German and English, none is our first language so we needed some time to translate a few words in order to decide what to order) and she kept looking at her watch with a very annoyed face (as they were about to close, but it was 19:45, we still had plenty of time...) Felt totally uncomfortable by her pressure and it was not even close to the "last order" time.
Very nice hotel in a great location in the middle of the Black Forest. Very nice staff on the front desk and a good breakfast.
