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.).

ItalyThe absence of elevator sadly making the structure not very accessible. The pavemt of the room very crinkly but i think it was also part of the "boaty" atmosphere hahahah. Just a suggestion for the bathroom (bathroom was very clean but sadly there is no window) is to put an automatic deodorant or a stronger fan.
Very good position so close to the barenpark. The receptionist and all staff was so lovely. They also gave us free public transport cards. The cheese at breackfast like in my deepest dreams. The room is full of style. The postcards! I loved spend the evening at the altes tramdepot bar nearby.

United StatesI liked everything about the hotel. It was as advertised and pictured.
Cute, quirky, homey hotel. Nice view. Right across water from old town. On tram line from train station to Paul Klee center. Was able to leave bags prior to check in. Nice quality soap, shampoo and lotion. Had room with shared bath but there was a basin in the bedroom. Coffee/tea station on first floor landing. Breakfast was nice.

This place really shows what true hospitality means. Warm, caring staff, beautiful building, amazing breakfast with organic products and locally produced swiss cheese, good facilities and a big cosy bed. We were welcomed by the staff that helped us carry the suitcases to our room and there were Toblerones and water. Location is also amazing, in a walking distance to the city famous boulevard and rooms have a beautiful view. There is a room in the first floor with coffee and tea available for guests. I was there in snow days and it was truly magical.

United StatesAlbert and Frida are excellent hosts--very engaging and competent. Hotel is across the river from the old town, in a quiet area, but a short walk to Bern attractions. Food in their restaurant was exception, with a range of options (incl. tasty veg). If you can accomodate stairs to rooms, this is an excellent choice).

United KingdomIt was quite a long walk from the railway station pulling our wheelie cases over the cobbled streets. There are buses and you can get a free public transport pass from the hotel for the trip back to the station. Nice walks by the river nearby.
Hotel had a lot of character and a very friendly atmosphere. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We had a lovely meal sat outside in garden.

Malaysia2 nights too short.
This is the BEST place to stay in Bern. It is very near to the Rose Garden and Bear Park, if you like greenery and some peace and quiet. And then just a short walk away is the Old Town with many shops to window shop or buy interesting stuff. The owner is the best part of my stay. Super friendly and warm and I felt very well looked after. Breakfast is good. I had dinner in the restaurant and it was delicious and reasonably priced compared to other places.

AustraliaSuper easy self check in. Location is great and the view is amazing. The room is very comfortable and we heard no noise throughout the night. Hosts are great and the breakfast provided is delicious. You walk into the breakfast room and are asked what you would like to drink (espresso, tea?)and are given a crossaint and orange juice. Swiss cheese is served to you on the side and then you can pick from the range of fresh fruits, yogurts and bread. Value for money is incredible.

United StatesRoom was right over the restaurant patio area and noise/food/smoke smells made it so we couldn't keep the window open (we had warm weather during our stay). Floors are super creaky and you will hear anyone else walking around, which could be a problem if you are a light sleeper.
Breakfast was good - lots of options. Enjoyed the small salon for coffee/tea. Liked the location near the Barenpark/old town, river, and Rose garden. Shared bathroom was small but clean and it didn't seem like anyone else was using it during our stay.
