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 StatesCheck in took a little bit longer than we would have liked, the floorboards were incredibly creaky and made a lot of noise when you walked on them.
Location was close to many of the shops, main square, and close to the wall walk. Staff were incredibly kind and knowledgeable. Food was good and the room was really nice.

GermanyThe shower was a little small with the wrong shower head - that was my only concern…
It was in the style of the old town and had a perfect feel. It had more the feel of a home than a big hotel, which is what we wanted. The staff went out of their way to make things perfect for us, nothing was too much trouble.

AustraliaThe hotel is conveniently located close to the market square. Our studio apartment was in the annex in a nearby street. Genghis the manager did his utmost to ensure our stay was enjoyable, helping us navigate through the town and parking our car and suggesting dining options. The a la carte breakfast was suburb, with ample choice of fresh bread, pastry, eggs, bacon, fruit, yoghurt and more!

United StatesThis hotel was a remarkable choice for our accommodation. The breakfast setting is nothing short of breathtaking. The location is exceptionally convenient, situated just steps away from a vibrant market, restaurants, and shops. The hotel itself is charming, radiating a historic ambiance that transported us to a different time. However, it is crucial to note that the absence of elevators may pose challenges for individuals who require wheelchair access. Nevertheless, the overall experience was so lovely.

Staying in the first week of June 2025 at Hotel Herrnschlösschen for 2 and a half days was an amazing experience for my wife and I and our 17 year old son, we were happy to see the expectations that we had while selecting the hotel, were not only met but exceeded. Hotel Herrnschlösschen is located in the centre of the old town with walking distance to all areas to see with quaint shops and many good restaurants in the old town of Rothenburg. Phillip welcomed us and checked us inn who also manages the hotel chic restaurant and helped take all our luggage upstairs. phillip had a very likeable personality and knows hospitality. We booked the Senior Suite and were allocated Suite No 7 on the third floor (made like a duplex suite with one bed up the stairs within the suite. This suite is on the 3rd floor and was beautifully decorated and comfortable and with an excellent layout and Shower / bathroom and all amenities. It has a French balcony which is above the front entrance of the hotel and as having a proper seated balcony was one of our requirements, we were given the option to move to the 1st floor Suite No 3 similar type suite which became available the next day which we found better for us as it has a balcony over looking the beautiful garden and a rear garden view and the bathroom and shower are separate with a bath and and stand in shower as well. The ‘GARDEN’ was the highlight for us as we spent hours in the morning and late evenings enjoying the weather and the serene environment the Owner / Hotel Managemnet have created for guests. Even though it was really 02 nights but the place does have an impactful aura as you feel part of a different time. Another great experience happening in the old town was the draught festival that was going on for the two nights we were there with people dressed up in costumes and performing different types of acts that were uniquely pleasing to see.

United KingdomEverything was more than satisfactory save for access which was not the hotel’s fault - but clearer signage and advance notice of street barring would be helpful . Navigation is not straightforward when the roads are forbidden to traffic !

The location is perfect, and the staff members were all so friendly and helpful. They gave us restaurant recommendations and suggestions of sites to visit. On Mother’s Day I was presented with a beautiful rose to commemorate the day.

United StatesThis is a beautifully restored building with so much charm! We were given a huge 2 level room on the 3 floor with incredible views of the city. It was up 3 flights of stairs so travel lightly (however the gentleman checking us in kindly carried our luggage up for us). The bed was very comfortable and in a bedroom just above the lounging area with nice windows that opened for ventilation. They would also take your car and park it several blocks away for you at $10 a night. A wonderful breakfast was provided on the main floor. It was so fun to stay in the ancient historic building and the price was extremely reasonable. We loved it!

United StatesFantastic location, right in the old city. Unbelievable service. Room was comfortable, bathroom was great with good water pressure and warmth. You have to drive through the pedestrian-filled center area to get there, which felt a little strange to an American, but they valet-parked it once we were there.
