Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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...).

United StatesWe loved just about everything about Goethe House in Zurich. You can't get a much better location. Beautifully decorated and so big and roomy! Fiorenzo was fantastic to work with and communicated quickly. It was just such a wonderful experience.

United StatesWe stayed during a weekend and it was very loud at night. We could have used some earplugs or a warning. During the week it was fine.
The apartment is beautiful and in a prime location. The host was so accommodating and let us checkin early with our two babies after a long flight. He had a crib setup ready for us and waters in the fridge.

AustraliaGreat location but close to Europes biggest clock face so if you’re not good at blocking out bell chimes maybe not the place for you. Winter isn’t so bad but summer with the windows open might be a bit loud.
Very quirky place in a great location. Well equipped, comfortable and clean.

United StatesBe aware that there are two flights of stairs to reach the apartment. A challenge with large suitcases since they are narrow and uneven steps. There was also an automatic overhead light in the hallway between bath and bedroom. Nice when your hands are full but too bright in the middle for night trips to bathroom. There are also uneven thresholds, so watch your step between rooms. The biggest challenge was noise from bar next door. Smokers stood outside and talked loudly late into Friday and Saturday night. A fan was provided for background noise, but light sleepers should be aware. It was quieter on Sunday night. Note: Uber cannot meet you within old city. We had to walk about a block to catch our ride.
The property is just as lovely as advertised. The living room view over St Stephen's church was out of a story book. The snow made it even more magical. The location is great, short walk to the tram stop and Christmas market. The modern kitchen and bath were spotless. It had a huge shower and separate toilet area. The bed was comfortable with feather pillows and duvet.

United StatesPerfect for a family of 4! We were surprised at how spacious the apartment was. We had everything we needed for a few night stay. The location in Old Town is exceptional for sightseeing and exploring and the communication with the owner is FABULOUS. She really made sure we were taken care of and had what we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to return.

United KingdomI can't think of any improvements.
This was our second stay at the property. Betina messaged before we arrived and so we could collect the key on arrival. The apartment is very spacious, clean and well appointed. It is perfect for a stay in the centre of Zurich, and Betina is very helpful and attentive. We love the sound of the church bells at 7pm and 7am, though may not be to everyone's taste!

CanadaWe knew going into the stay that there wasn’t any AC and it was unseasonably hot. It was rather noisy on the weekends from the restaurants and bars in the area and we needed to have the windows open to attempt to cool the bedroom down. After a few nights I ended up sleeping in the living room on a very comfortable sofa bed and it was PERFECT! Way better air flow. Ear plugs, eye mask and white noise from the fan did the trick. They mentioned doing some black out blinds and I think this would help a lot keeping the heat out during the day and in the cooler months to block out the street light and for some privacy. Note to self…there are 2 long flights of stairs and no lift so I will pack lighter next time.
The property is in a fantastic location and was very spacious. It was good value when compared to getting 2 hotel rooms in that area. It was well stocked with things we would need during our stay. Communication was clear and prompt. Loved the energy of the area and the chiming of the bells!
