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.).

Hong KongHotel is run by the host family but I can tell their son (a teenager) is not happy with this kind of work.
Good location if you will visit Eisriesenwelt (especially if you will drive as parking spaces of Eisriesenwelt will run out quickly). Parking (in front of the hotel) is free. Everything is up to standard.

FranceComfortable lodging close to Eisriesenwelt. I think it deserves more then 7.6. We had a spacious family room, not brand new but clean and well maintained. The staff was very friendly, and they let us have diner in the restaurant although we arrived late. The food was good and the restaurant terrace has a great view over the mountains.

United KingdomWiFi only available in public areas (as advertised). Arriving Sunday, breakfast didn't start until 8.30, too late for our pre-booked visit to the ice cave.
Excellent location for Eisriesenwelt. Restaurant on site with outdoor seating. Excellent service from our charming waitress. Our ground floor room had access to an internal courtyard ... with a WiFi signal.

Netherlands- I would expect a kettle and glasses in the room. - Breakfast is not a standard, you have to pay extra or choose more expensive room option.
- Clean room and bathroom, spacious shower, comfortable bed. - Beautifully located, great view on the mountains, close to the town. - Good for a short stay without design expectations- time stopped there in early 2000's. :)

United StatesThe property could use an update. The carpeting is old and stained and really detracts from otherwise very clean Gasthaus. The shower in the first room we had was so small that a person larger that 130 lb would have trouble turning around in it. The second room was very small and no room for suitcases; had to pull two chairs together. The hair dryer was half hanging off the wall—something that could radially be fixed but detracts from overall appearance. I would definitely ask to see the room prior to accepting it.
The property was close to castle and ice cave, there was plenty of parking, and breakfast was adequate. Also has elevator so that was appreciated. The proprietress was helpful with our reservation since we arrived one day early. It is a good value for 3 star hotel.

AustriaRather unfriendly staff at the reception (and on the phone). had to check out at 5 to go for a climbing tour so we couldn't get breakfast, not even a little package prepped on the night before to just grab in the morning. Also did not get a refund for that either, reception lied about the price of the room (it was 90 with breakfast but she said the breakfast would have been 30 (!!!) extra and we don't have to pay that since we cannot get breakfast but again, it was already included in the price on booking.com). Also they are advertising that the owner is cooking himself for dinner and then we got told that the kitchen is closed the whole day and we had to go for dinner somewhere else.
That we did not have to interact much with the rather unfriendly staff ^^

AustriaJust a tiny thing: I would put some hook in the bathroom to hang clothes ;)
I stayed for 3 nights. I was really satisfied with this place. I can recommend it to anyone with the similar travel style, which is: travelling solo and spending days on exploring the closer (on foot) and further (with trains) surroundings. - Super clean room and bathroom - Friendly staff - Good location: around 10-15 minutes to train station, 5-8 minutes to the supermarket - Good (and fresh) food in the restaurant - Silence - I didn't hear other guests (my room was at the ground floor - maybe it's different for other rooms)
