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.).

SlovakiaTo check in and check out you nedd to pick uo the key in the hotel which is 10 min car drive away. Coming from other direction this means that you have to calculate 20 min extra time and driving costs in the evening and the same 20 min trip in the morning which was even more inconvenient because we were hurrying for the trek to leave early. No way to leave the key somewhere in the cottage, the stuff very uncooperative. They dont answer emails, calling them we were informed: it is already 10 years like this to pick up and return the key in the hotel and they will not change it ( beause its 21st century). Never heard about keybox???
Accomodation was perfect, nice, clean, everything you nedd was there.

DenmarkThe reception is around 10 km from the cottage. We rented linen packages for 4 people but discovered that in a pillow cover for 1 person was missing. We called reception who informed us that the only option was to drive back the 10 km to get it. When we got there, no apologies or comments from the staff. Old furniture that did trigger some dust allergies.
Has everything we needed, very nice location and nice views.

DenmarkMore precise description of the location where the cabin is. It was difficult to find and the hotels were spread three different locations within 8-10 km. The check in /out at another hotel 8 km away was a bit inconvenient.
The nature and surrounding of the cabins are excellent (Vierli). We where first sent to another cabin, 3 km away from what the reservation address confirmed. The first cabin was at a really poor state, dirty bathroom and location was not perfect. But we got upgraded and the hotel was very serviceminded. It ended up as a good experience.

SwedenWe had a great 2night, 3day stay in this cozy cabin. It was relatively clean, and since it was off-season, we were able to enjoy some quiet family time. The sauna was a perfect way to relax and unwind. On top of that, there’s a hill behind the cabin that offers a beautiful view from the top, it was truly a highlight. Overall, I was very satisfied and would gladly stay here again in the future.

MalaysiaCollecting the apartment key is far (15 minutes drive) from the apartment. Had to pay extra and very expensive for the towels and bed linens and we have to put them on ourselves. Very few dining (restaurant) options nearby but there is a kitchen for self catering.
The apartment is big with 2 bedrooms and bunk beds and living room, dining table and fully equipped kitchen. Very comfortable and clean. If you coming for ski then its perfect place because its right by the ski lift. Washing machine but we didn't use it.

United KingdomThe furniture is getting a bit old but it didn't really bother us. Internet in the evenings was not strong enough for streaming. Ski rental and skiing instructions are at a different site a few minutes down the road rather than in Vierli. You have to walk up quite a steep side of a slope to get to the rental shop and instructions for beginners were on an icy blue slope. Our kids didn't want to continue lessons after two hefty crashes. We taught them at the slope in Vierli ourselves which is the right level for beginners.
We had a small hut in Vierli with two bedrooms that had a bunk bed each. One of the lower bunks was big enough to sleep two. A small bathroom with shower and underfloor heating. The main room was a living room with wood oven (wood is provided in a box by the hut), kitchen (with waffle maker), a dining area and a swivel TV. The car is parked between the huts by the front door. There is a little storage room by the front door to leave shoes and ski boots. The views from every window were amazing, particularly the sundown. The hut is right next to an easy slope with lift which was perfect for introducing our kids to skiing. It was very quiet in the mornings and only a little bit of queuing in the afternoon. We also loved the massive ice castle for sliding down with mats etc (bring your own). Plenty of cross-country tracks for families. You can also rent sleighs for kids that can be pulled by the lift. There are saunas on site that can be rented. We didn't know so didn't bring our swimming costumes. The café next door was great too with indoor and outdoor seating, lunches (chips, burgers, bagels etc) and hot drinks to warm up. We had a fantastic time!

NetherlandsCheck-in/out location is 8+ kilometers away. This was not clearly indicated (the pick-up location was mentioned, just not that it was so far away). Initially we could not find the cabin, and we called the reception. Instead of helping us finding the right one, we were criticized that this never happened to anyone before. Our overall experience was that from a facility perspective everything was great, but from a service perspective the experience could have been a lot better, without too much effort, it all comes down to communication. Only thing we missed from a facility perspective was a drying rack in the cabin.
House was comfortable and cute. It was spacious and had a very nice view. The facilities were good.

Czech RepublicWe were missing a colander and a dish towel in the kitchen, and another smaller pot would have been useful. Otherwise, the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed.
We stayed in a beautiful, large cottage in an amazing location with stunning views and plenty of opportunities for nature trips right on the doorstep. There are sufficiently large rooms, two toilets, a bathroom and a sauna. Unfortunately, we didn't use the sauna due to the hot weather. The place must be amazing in winter, too.
