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 are 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 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.).

NetherlandsFor summer absence of air conditioning is critical. Low ceiling of bathroom in mansard room made it almost impossible to take shower standing.
We were granted with slight upgrade of our room. I think without upgrade our stay would be uncomfortable - small room without air conditioning. In the upgraded mansard room due to space it was more comfortable.

FranceAs you would also expect in Switzerland it was overly expensive, but that's Switzerland for you. However for the price I think there should have been a fridge in the room. I also found the system for accessing the internet really complicated. Either you have to ask for an sms to use it on your phone... and mine kept cutting out so I had to do this several times.. or put in your credit card details which I didn't want to do. I can't see why they couldn't just have a password like other hotels. Plus it was advertised as "limited broadband" when fast easily accessible internet is essential these days when travelling. On the tables in the dining rooms there were little message telling us how much we would pay if we took a fruit away etc. Not sure what I think of that! Some people were taking stuff away so either this was to stop people stealing for lunch or was actually a useful service for those on coach tours. A lot of big tours seem to come to this hotel which meant the staff seemed a little over worked and stressed at times but they still did a good job. The bathroom had an automatic light which was a bit annoying as you got blinded every time anyone went to the bathroom and then had to wait several minutes for it to go off. There was a door in our room which being curious I opened. On the other side there was another door so I opened that and lo and behold there was not a magical kingdom but another room with suitcases in. I told reception who came and locked the door but perhaps the hotel could check that ALL the doors between rooms are locked
This is a quaint belle epoque stye hotel well situated about 15 minutes walk from the town centre along the lake road. Our room was much more spacious than we expected, well decorated and with really comfortable beds. We had air conditioning which was great. I really liked the breakfast, the dining room was beautifully decorated with clean white table cloths and everything was very well cooked. The bathroom and toilet were separate which was great and I enjoyed having the bath although this made it less suitable for those with mobility issues (need to climb in for a shower). As you would expect in Switzerland it was extremely clean with exceptional housekeeping.

NetherlandsWe booked two rooms, but the hotel couldn't give us two rooms close to eachother (which I still find odd, since it is a huge hotel). We had one room at the front, 1st floor, (great view over the lake) but with lousy airco, and one room at the back, 3rd floor, (not a very great view) but with excellent airco.
- Decent breakfast, lots of large bustours in the hotel but they had their own breakfast room, so pretty quiet - Close to city center, free bus, only 3 stops

AustraliaWe requested a twin room but beds were together. No space to push beds apart. No mini bar in room. Took 3 days for the towel holder to get fixed. Restaurant staff talking very loudly to each other during meal service. No ambience in dining room.
Easy to get into Lucerne on bus with free bus pass. Bus stop right outside hotel. Breakfast good. Reception has a staffed travel desk which was helpful. Seperate toilet with sink. Easy to access Lake Lucerne with nice swimming and walking areas.

United KingdomThe only conceivable grip was with the room layout. I'd asked for two beds as I was traveling with my mother. These were provided, but was adjacent such that it may as well have been a double bed. Given that the room was so spacious, I simply moved one of the beds across the other side of the room, with plenty of room to do so. This uncovered a reasonable amount of dust where the bed had been, although I guess they didn't count on me doing my own interior design. But this is all very minor; all in all a very pleasant stay!
We had a very enjoyable stay. The hotel itself is done out beautifully, with great views out over Lake Lucerne from both our room and the bar terrace. Check-in was straightforward and there was plenty of space in the underground car park. The room was also very nice, with a lovely balcony overlooking the lake, and twin beds as requested. The hotel bar was a highlight. Decorated in a beautiful traditional style, with an extensive drinks list, comfortable seating, piano, and friendly and attentive staff. Breakfast in the morning was also extensive and enjoyable.
