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.).

SpainThere is nothing to complain about, really. As said, it is a fabulous place. The parking is a couple of hundred meters away, but it is understandable as parked cars would really destroy the view of the castle. One can drive closer to leave and pick up luggage, so not really a problem. But, OK, one thing I would like to complain about is that several of the castles we visited on this trip, this one included, are becoming overgrown by thick vegetation, from high grass to trees. This obscures the views both to and from the castles, as well as does not give an impression of the sites being well kept.
Me and my son made a tour around Fränkische Alp to look at castles and other historical landmarks. We also stayed in some of the castles. We were focusing especially on castles with a more "medieval" appearance rather than later palaces. Burg Rabenstein is really a dream castle if one likes these things. It has very spectacular looks on top of a cliff. It has amazing interiors that make you feel like moved in time. In addition to this there is also possible to eat quite high-end food for a reasonable price level in the castle restaurant. And the list of wine and spirits was very complete, and sitting there sipping on a good whiskey in a leather chair after the dinner was very relaxing. My teenage son was by then spending the time in the huge bathtub of our room. Altogether it really felt as we were some royalty in the past. The breakfast was also great, and the location is perfect for hiking in the surroundings. Only a few hundred meters away is an amazing cave with beautiful rock formations and remains of cave bears.

United Statescheck in was a little problematic. the code given did not work, and I had to call to get buzzed in. Also I had sent a question, but never got a response. If any Americans are planning on staying there, just know that the clothes dryers there aren’t not like the ones in the States. They do not use heat, so it takes a long time to dry. I assume it’s due to their energy crisis.
it was clean, plenty of room, and in a great location.

Beautiful location, set on a high vantage point. Our room was large and well equipped. The breakfast was more than adequate with options of fruit, cereal cheese and meat with also offer of cooked as well. There are numerous walks around the castle, which were extremely interesting. .views, caves etc. Also right next to the castle is a Falconry centre also a large cave that does guided tours every hour or so.

United KingdomOK it’s a castle but the wifi really should be better. Also, all the information we found about our accommodation was in German. It would really help to have another language (the restaurant evening menu was thoughtfully provided to us in English, so it should be possible).
Location is amazing, peaceful. atmospheric and authentic castle living. Evening meal excellent. Views to die for.

GermanyThe Beergarden inside the premise closes at 18.00hrs. The restaurant inside the castle requires prior booking. And nearest villages are 4 to 6km away. So plan well your evening dinner in advance. There are limited or no options if you do not plan.
The location and surrounding is excellent and staying in such a historic castle like this is a great experience. The staff at reception is very good.

GermanyI liked everything, no complaints. Only thing that it's probably difficult to get to without a car.
Like staying in a medieval fairytale. Right on top of a hill surrounded by an ancient forest. The staff were also very helpful. The restaurant was closed on a Monday but we could drink beer on a secret terrace in the oldest part of the castle from the 13th century. Breakfast was extremely good with everything you could ask for.
