Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United States of AmericaNothing, our stay was perfect!
This chalet was such a wonderful stay for my family for one week. The host, Ruth, was very gracious and helpful. The chalet is a bit of a walk down the hill from the Wengen train station, but it is definitely worth it because the neighborhood area around the chalet is extremely peaceful and quiet, and has one of the most beautiful views of the Lauterbrunnen Valley from the chalet's terrace. The kitchen was fully stocked with appliances and dishes perfect for cooking for a family of 4. The WiFi speeds were fast and reliable. The beds were comfortable and had traditional European pillows. The bathroom has a full-size tub and shower. The chalet has a wonderful skylight in the ceiling that allows for constant views of the Eiger mountain. We would absolutely stay at the Chalet Gerbera again and would even like to stay for longer next time. If you are concerned about the walk from the train station with your luggage, contact the host prior to as she can help schedule a convenient taxi. Our taxi cost us 25CHF one-way on the day of departure.

United States of AmericaRuth and George are wonderful hosts and their beautiful chalet was our favorite stay on our two week trip. It was perfect for our family's needs with a well stocked kitchen, large table and living room and comfortable beds. The views off the back deck are jaw dropping. It is a just a short walk uphill into town, or you can walk downhill to the Wengwald station and ride the train up. We were able to do some laundry which was wonderful since we packed very light. We had a perfect stay!

United States of AmericaNothing. It was wonderful.
Jaw dropping views from the balconies. Our group stayed in the attic apartment and the 2nd floor apartment. Both were very comfortable and clean. Well supplied kitchens if you choose to cook. The host, Ruth, is very helpful. Tons of local info is available in the apartments to help you plan your time. The apartments are well cared for and very spacious. You will not want to leave. The steep walk back to town can be avoided by walking downhill to the next train station, then taking the train up to town. You’ll want a taxi to bring your luggage back to the train station.

AustraliaI have just one qualification - the property is about 400 metres down a steep road from the station and may not be ideal for an elderly person with mobility issues. This problem can be solved if he/she is willing to pay 25 CHF for a taxi whenever s/he wishes to reach the station or the lovely village of Wengen..
The view from the terrace was remarkable - Jungfrau and Lauterbrunnen Valley.

United KingdomThe location for us was more than a 5 to 7 minute walk and uphill going into the centre. Anyone with mobility issues would need to get a taxi which was twenty five francs a trip!

GermanyThe apartment was very clean, it was well-furnished with all required amenities you need! It is also very nice located with great view from balcony over Lauterbrunnen and the mountain peaks, yet it's not too far located from the main station/supermarket. I really love the environment, just beside the apartment you will find a nice bank to sit and adoring the view. And if you have kids, there is nice, big playground very near the property (near Hotel Edelweis). The host (Frau / Mrs. Widmer) is a very nice person, even before our arrival the communication has been great with her. All in all, I do not have any complaints about the property, it really met my expectations (if not better), and also I think the price really worth it for Swiss standard. No need to look further, just book the place and you won't regret ;-)

Spainthe location was perfect - slightly tucked away from the town centre and with absolutely spectacular views from the balcony. Ruth and George were so lovely and provided us with everything we needed. The chalet itself was incredibly clean and comfortable. We were so sad to leave. Thank you for everything. We would also really recommend staying Wengen - although it seems remote (something we loved) the train connection down to Lauterbrunnen is frequent and reliable and you can even hike up and down if you fancy it. Wengen had everything we needed. It’s a paradise.

CanadaBeautiful, clean, well-equipped chalet apartment with glorious views of Jungfrau and Lauterbrunnen. We stayed in the 2-bedroom top-floor apartment of Chalet Gerbera - we would stay there again in a heartbeat! It had a fully equipped kitchen, with a full-size fridge, a dishwasher, and every kitchen utensil / amenity you can think of, including parchment paper, a pizza cutter, and an eggbeater - I was able to cook for my family as though I was at home. There are so many thoughtful little touches, including slippers, and a heated towel rack in the bathroom (which is nicer than our bathroom at home!). Everything was spotlessly clean and our host Ruth was so friendly and helpful! We basically just want to move in and live here permanently! 😀

SingaporeThe walk to the chalet from the train station might not be the most convenient for groups with elderly, especially with luggages.
We had an amazing stay at the chalet! the view from the balcony was exceptional, you can see the Eiger and Jungfraujoch through the Lauterbrunnen valley. Ruth was a great host as well, with prompt replies and making sure everything was alright. the chalet was clean with basic toiletries provided.
