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...).

ItalyThe location was fabulous! Close to train station, right on the water. Also close to the furnicular and cable car to access hiking trails and the mountains. Very nice breakfast included and they even went out of their way to provide gluten free bread due to my companion's allergy.

SwitzerlandThis hotel is excellent and there is nothing to not like about a stay here.
The hotel is in an excellent location on the Lake. Loved having the boat dock and rail station so close. The front desk staff was excellent and were helpful every day. The breakfast was very good. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

SwitzerlandThe breakfast room is tiny, feels very cramped and sitting is too close to other guests. There's construction on the street so parking is unavailable, hotel gives a voucher for main city underground parking but it's a pain: we had to wait about 20 minutes till parking staff became available, then it's cache-only, and there's no staff on Sunday (or late evening).
The location is great, especially if you get a room with a lake view and a balcony - it's amazing. Close to the town centre and train station too. Staff is attentive and helpful. Room was clean and bright. Simple but good breakfast selection, and they offer to cook some eggs separately.

SpainThe room was really small, and the bed occupied most of it. I would recommend not booking the smallest room category.

United KingdomOne of the double beds was at slightly different levels, more comfortable pillows would be an improvement. Nothing else we could think of!
Excellent stay in the penthouse, better than the pictures which is unusual for a hotel! The terrace was small and cosy, but what a view 🤩 ⛰️ 🥂 Elevator directly into the penthouse was so convenient, and the bean-to-cup coffee machine was fabulous ☕️ Owners were lovely, genuinely cared about their guests, and breakfast was good. Parking was great, location couldn't be better. All in all, it is a very good place to stay 🙌

Great staff! So clean, so nice! Pay the extra and get the lakeview suites. Perfect location right on the water in the center of the city and in front of the marina, next to restaurants and shopping, and only 1 block from the funicular that takes you up to Orsalina and the stunning Madonna del Sasso shrine church. From there take the gondola to the top of the mountain for just ridiculous views of Lake Maggiore.

United KingdomThe breakfast room was too small, people kept into my chair as they couldn't get to the buffet. It was very crowded and at one point people were turned away as there was no room.
The location was great, and the lady on reception was super helpful. The breakfast had a good choice too.

SwitzerlandYou can't do much better for a central location in Locarno. The room was the perfect size for our group. It was very close to the train station, and everything else. The room itself was great. There was a great selection for breakfast featuring a number of local products. And during some of the hottest days ever in Switzerland, the air conditioning was great!
