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 StatesThe entrance into the hotel is a little confusing. What I thought was the entrance into the building was actually the door into the restaurant’s kitchen.
Conveniently located in Les Praz. A very short walk from the Les Praz train station and the bus stop at the steps of the hotel made commuting around the Chamonix valley a breeze. The Flegere gondola was a very short walk additionally. The restaurant on the main floor with patio dinning served excellent food. Our very comfortable room provided an outstanding view of Mount Blanc, the Aiguille du Midi and the surrounding mountains on both sides of the valley. This is an excellent place to stay and I will certainly book lodging in the Hotel Le Castel on my next trip to Chamonix.

United StatesPoor communication… they claimed they had to close the kitchen/bar for annual cleaning one night but clearly was because no staff. Then they locked the place up and we and another couple in another room would not have been able to get back in at night because an interior lobby door would have been locked if we let it close. I had to prop it open with a cabinet. The next day a person told us we should have been given a code to a keypad (that was like 8 feet away from that door) that would have allowed us to get back in. They failed to do that at check in for us and the other couple! Also one day we placed the “make room up” on door early when we left the room and when we returned later that evening it was not touched. Understand we travel often and the lock out situation with the closing of an entire lower floor with no way to contact anyone has NEVER happened to us! Very bad of the staff to do this to guests and also lie about why they shut everything down!

United KingdomThis is a fantastic small hotel for skiers. Right next to the Flegere gondola and the bus stop (for easy access to Les Houches and Le Tour). Sunny terrace for apres ski drinks, with music. Great restaurant if you want to stay put, but 10 minute easy bus/uber ride to the centre of Chamonix. Rooms are spacious and well equipped. The staff are helpful, if a little chaotic at times.

United KingdomBetter coffee options at breakfast - currently just a machine.
Lovely clean comfortable rooms, with a great powerful hot shower. Really nice traditional chalet styling. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Great restaurant downstairs. Breakfast was simple but all you need really (could do with some better coffee options - just a machine doing black coffee). Next to the bus stop to get around the Chamonix valley and opposite the Flegere lift, which made it really convenient. Free parking opposite the hotel. We had a great stay and will be back!

United Arab Emirates* All staff is trying their best and thanks for that but you should keep in mind you might need to ask for things multiple times * One of the ladies at the reception was extremely unhelpful in all instances we tried to interact with her, highlight being she told us they can sit us for dinner at 9:30 pm, we came at 9:35 pm, kitchen was closed :D * Value for money is mid
* Location is convenient, very good to ski in Flegere * Place is very cosy, decor is great * Room is quite spacious * Food in the restaurant downstairs is nice

IsraelThe staff are short - the same employees that run the restaurant are also running the hotel, so they have very low availability to serve the hotel customers. But when they do - they are super friendly and helpful.

United StatesIt was hard to find the door to this hotel. It is not facing the street, there isn't a sign pointing the way, you enter through the conservatory that is part of the restaurant and facing away from the parking lot. This might be an issue if guests are not expecting to have to bring luggage across the street and around to the other side of the hotel.
A very nice hotel in a fantastic location with great views of Mont Blanc. The room was spacious, bed was comfortable. Bathroom was large with nice towels and amenities.
