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.).

The Fairmont Chateau is a winter wonderland. One of the most spectacular places I have ever stayed. The building is magnificent, both the exterior and interior. The view from our room and in every direction were spectacular and absolutely breath taking. The service is second to none. What more can I say. Definitely a bucket list location and it lived up to my expectations. I hope to visit again in spring when the lake thaws to the beautiful turquoise Lake Louise is famous for.

United StatesThe bathroom was too close to the bed and the doors don’t seal shut. It was very close quarters. I definitely would have liked a bit more area to move around. The view would have been lovely if not for the construction.
It was beautiful and comfortable. The staff was great and the location stunning.

CanadaSince the hotel was under renovation, we could not use the spa because we could not find its relocation. We found the swimming pool a little small and insufficient. It is very nice to have many different restaurants for dinner, but the unfamiliar smell in the restaurant on the ground floor disturbed us.
Gold lounge was very enjoyable. The employees were very attentive and friendly. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed ourselves.. The champagne and cake sent to our room for my son's birthday celebration was a wonderful surprise. Thank you general manager Tracy Lowe..We had a very good experience with Fairmont that I can tell you about.. for example.. Never miss the gold lounge breakfast service. You will never be able to say no to an omelette from the delicious hands and friendly conversation of an Italian chef... In addition, all employees show all the respect and service they can to ensure that you start the day with a smile... Mr. Ben, the man at the Gold Reception, is a true gentleman...An expert who does his job very well.. I would like to have another dinner at Walliser Stube and enjoy the pleasant conversation and delicious food service of the waiter from Brampton, whose name I cannot remember now. In conclusion, I would like to thank the friendly Filipino driver Enrique, who took us to Lake Louise Ski Resort by shuttle bus. The whole staff is a big reason why we go there again.. thank you Fairmont employees 🥂

ThailandWe booked Junior Suite with Two Queen Beds and Lake View. Unfortunately, we were placed in a room right above the future span construction site. There are few cranes & trucks working early in the morning. I guess they might try to speed up to avoid the extreme weather in the upcoming winter. There are two bathrooms but they are pretty small that I bumped myself here and there many times.
We were here some 30 years ago when the facility wasn't "Fairmont" yet. The hotel is very well maintained with more F&B facilities added. It is so stunning to see Lake Louise once you wake up. We were so grateful to have breakfast complimented. The breakfast is really excellent with great value for money. There are several dining options for lunch and dinner to suit your preference here. The hotel also has a good system to differentiate outside guests from hotel guests. There are several nice gift shops within the facility.

United KingdomBathroom was a bit cramped (we had a standard Mountain View room). Restaurants are expensive although also quite good. An extra lift would also be handy. There was also construction happening during the day for their latest renovations which added noise during the day.
The location and access to Lake Louise is the clear differentiating factor. Friendly and helpful staff too, and we enjoyed the spa. The Guides Pantry was also a good cheaper way for less formal meals.

Hong KongActivities provided at the hotel were quite expensive such as the “Sunrise at Moraine Lake” which was only a shuttle to the location (CAD 180 for two).
Location is right next to Lake Louise, so the view was amazing. The accommodation was great and there were lots of activities that you can join for a fee. Breakfast buffet was great!

United KingdomThe room was very tired and very bare for a hotel that costs as much as this did. The windows were also dirty from the construction which marred the view a little but appreciate you can't clean windows on a hotel this size all the time.
You obviously pay for the location and it didn't disappoint. The gardens, the layout of the hotel and the choice of activities and places to eat were top notch, even with construction ongoing.

AustraliaConstruction activity is more than we anticipated- though the hotel did inform us and it didn’t really affect us. The room and especially the bathroom was small.
Iconic location. Great to be able to stroll around the lake in the morning and afternoon without the big crowds. Food was very good. Service was friendly. Lovely old building. Comfortable room with amazing view.
