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.).

United KingdomMy husband found the shower cubicle was about 6” too small in all directions and the shower head didn’t work properly.
We booked here for two main reasons …. Firstly the view ( ….. which is spectacular to say the least!) and secondly it was Adults only as we didn’t want noisy children running around everywhere. The Hotel lived up to and in fact exceeded our expectations. The proprietor and his staff were so friendly, kind and professional …. they couldn’t have been more helpful.

EstoniaThe view was amazing, really good breakfast and we enjoyed our room that had the view to the Burg Hohenwerfen. Definitely recommend arriving by car as the walk up the hill is pretty steep.

DenmarkThe location is unbelievable, the hotel is situated in front of the old castle, and there is an open space where it is possible to drink a beer and enjoy the fabulous view. The room was clean, comfortable, and big enough for 2 adults and 2 king-size poodles. It was an unforgettable experience and we hope to come back soon.

United StatesDidn't have a car. Found out the last day there's an inexpensive cab schedule. Look for the info outside the werfen train station or visitor center.
The pictures are amazing but don't come close to the beauty of this place in person. The owner picked us up at the station. There's a shuttle to the ice cave that comes by the hotel.

CanadaNothing we didn't like. Unsurprisingly for a small town, the staff's English wasn't great, but we got by fine. A car is a must since it's a bit outside of town. The modern finishes (hard floors) tend to amplify sounds from outside the room, but the hotel's policies mean it's a very peaceful place to stay.
Kaspar, the owner, was very friendly and helpful. The hotel has been recently renovated and is very comfortable with every convenience we could want. Werfen has two main attractions (if you don't count the Sound of Music trail): the Eisriesenwelt ice caves and the Hohenwerfen fortress. We were just down the road from the first and looked out the window at the second - definitely worth the extra few Euros for the castle view room! Plenty of free parking. Breakfast was excellent!

United StatesI was very impressive of this hotel. It is in in calm and nice moutain and castle view location. The hotel is not too large but well organized and clean everywhere. In the room, we could get everything for free: fruits, Tee, coffee, 2 bottles of water in a fridge and a jug of water. Breakfast was 15€ per person and made me enjoy eating. The receptionist was nice and helpful. This hotel is 10 mins away from Eisriesenwelt the most famous landmark in this area. The free parking lot is in front of the hotel. Finally, Wi-Fi is powerful with no password. I will come again!!!
