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.).

While this is a small village , manager was wonderful and even took us back to the train station. It is the first hotel on the shopping area and you can walk there if you know the direction

United StatesNothing. Not a thing. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Hotel Adler was the perfect location for our brief stay in the Appenzell region. The hotel was within 3 -4 min walking distance from the train station and ideally located near many of the main sites within Appenzell, including the public pool, the Appenzell liquor factory and the Appenzell brewery. The rooms were large and very comfortable. The breakfast was very good as well with the bread, butter, cheese and yogurt being directly from the Appenzell region. The fondue restaurant in the lower level was incredible too - it may be the best fondue I have ever had. Finally the staff was just wonderful. Everyone was so kind and thoughtful, particularly Matjaz Leu. He was able to provide so much valuable advice during our stay and even was the one to make the fondue!

SwitzerlandNothing wrong at all, it was perfect. Couldn't have asked for a better location. The village is remote but it is really worth visiting. Anyone who lives in Switzerland or comes to Switzerland should come to Appenzell.
The staff was exceptional. The food was good, freshly prepared and plenty of options for the breakfast. The location was very convenient. If you are a runner, there's a trail right next to the hotel, it's brilliant.

United StatesThe hotel was great but what sets them apart was the staff. I had a medical issue that could have potentially been serious and they offered to personally drive me to the hospital to make sure I was taken care of, and checked up on me several times as well. Other staff were very helpful as well. Will definitely return!
