How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewLovely, spotlessly clean apartment in peaceful village convenient for visiting Halstatt and surrounding mountains. The view from the terrace into the garden with the mountain backdrop was stunning. Heidi and Hubert were kind and friendly hosts. Would love to return.

Verified reviewThe breakfast was excellent, the rooms are very clean, the view is impressive and the owners are very special people, very friendly, kind persons. The bakery, the supermarket, a buss station, the railway station are very close of the Simmer Apartmenthause. And the lake is not far away, it is just a few minutes distance. You can rent a bike from the owners, to take a ride in the area.

Verified reviewVery nice and helpful hosts, clean apartment, comfortable bed, had everything what we needed. Big shampoo and body lotion (not a tiny annoying bottles :-), free car park, very good location - couple minutes from lake and train station, also there was a bus stop near by. Nice terrace outside. USB charger in the bedroom. Heidi and Hubert were very good hosts. Plus there is bike rental and they are making lovely honey-there is option to buy. Definitely would go back again :-)

Verified reviewIt is very difficult to say what my partner and I liked the most. The location of the apartment is very good, away from Hallstat, but close to Dachstein Krippenstein, where you have access to the cable car to the mountains. However, you can get a bus from Obertraun straight to Hallstat, it is not that difficult, but it is always good to keep an eye in the timetable, because the buses pass each one hour. The accomodation was perfectly clean, the apartment is really comfortable to two people. Due to the kitchenware available, we could cook our own dinner. There are dishwahser, microwave, electric stove and plenty of plates, cups and dishes. You should consider cooking because Obertraun has only one restaurant, a pizzaria, close to the accomodation. Finally, Heidi and Hubert were impeccable hosts, always worried about giving us a lot of hospitality, definitelly trying to make us fell at home. And we really felt that!
Nothing really relevant to say.

Verified reviewTo this day, a month or so later, we remember the beauty that Hubert and Heidi gave us. They were the best landlords. They gave us lots of travel advice and extra help. Their house is the best apartment in the world. You were able to find everything you needed in the apartment. The train station is close by. You can see the mountains every morning when you push open the door to the living room. Despite being close to a side road as well as the train station, you may feel very, very quiet. Here you can find an ice caving experience, or time for a summer swim at the lake, or perhaps a bike ride to Hallstatt and enjoy the scenery along the way. We still recall this delightful journey to this day and often consider revisiting them in the near future. Thank you Heidi and Hubert!
Couldn't stay longer.

Verified reviewGood location close to the lake and easy access to Haldstaat. Clean and well equipped kitchen. Helpful hosts.
It was quite expensive and also far from everything (besides the lake itself) so it's not good as a base for exploring other places.
