Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

Breakfast was an awesome plus. location couldn’t get much better. Has the bones to be amazing. Staff very accommodating too. Bed frames were very sturdy and did not make a peep when anyone moved unlike the lockers lol

SwitzerlandThe bathrooms for the “Easy” version aren’t very clean. Can get very noisy as it has thin walls.
The location is amazing, and the view is astonishing 😍. Very easy access from the train station and easy to take a bus to the center of Grindelwald.

CanadaWe stayed in the older section, the walls were thin so we could hear people talking in the hall. Our room was beside the common washroom so I could hear the faucet. The mattresses were a bit worn down and the center sunk in slightly. It wasn't unbearable, maybe consider the new wing instead! There were other folks complaining about the men's showers but my male friend and I (female) did not find the showers dirty.
The location was so convenient, being right beside the cable car and train station on the way down from Jungfrau. The breakfast was hearty and a nice bonus to have.

SwitzerlandNothing really... Maybe more toilets on the first floor? There was only one on the first floor (or I could find only one). Usually I had to go in the basement area to use the toilet. Oh and one of the bedside lamps was not working. But no major issues. Really a lovely place to stay.
The room had a view of the Eiger mountain... Whole area was really clean including the washrooms and showers. The bar is also good though it is only open till 10pm. It was really convenient to reach here just get off at Grindelwald Terminal (one stop before Bahnhof) and then it's a 5 mins walk. You also get a Grindelwald city pass with which you can travel in the bus without any cost.

NetherlandsCooking facilities in the common kitchen area should be provided. It would be very useful. You do have utensils and the facility to heat water and food.
The location is super convenient, just a few mins walk from the Grindelwald Terminal or Grindelwald Grund. They provide you with a card on arrival which you can use to freely avail the bus services. The location is also very beautiful and surrounded by beautiful mountains. The staff is super helpful, the lady helped us plan on what we can do and suggested great places. The breakfast was good, the standard items. The rooms were also decent.

United States of AmericaThere was no cooking facilities at the hostel. There was only two electric pots to boil hot water and one microwave. There are so many people waiting in line to use these. The worst was there was no stove at all to cook upon. Moreover, there was no cups at the kitchen area so even if I want to have a cup of hot tea I could only boil hot water but no cups. At the upstair there are plenty of cups but no hot water. It's a bit difficult to just to have a cup of tea there.
The breakfast was superb and it's wonderful. The only think I could say is I was hoping it could have some changes. I actually stayed there for 5 nights and all breakfast were the same. It doesn't matter how good the breakfast is, after 5 days it's kind of getting old. The location is great because it is very close to the bus terminal and train station. It's very easy for you to get to anywhere. The room is good but there are more room to improve. There is a washing sink inside the room but I was hoping also a toilet which would be perfect.
