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.).

SwitzerlandMy booking was accepted for a twin room, but after confirming, l was told none were available and had to pay 15 CHF extra for a Lake view. Sign in toilet,, clearly say toilet paper only, but no bin, spend 5 CHF to put a bin in the toilets. Advertised as an apartment, but then you need to pay extra to hire cutlery and utensils!
Very good value for Lugano. Very helpful , friendly and responsive reception. Received Ticino travel card which is a very nice benefit

Ukrainethere were no cutlery, there was no garbage can in the bathroom, and it was not convenient to carry garbage to the kitchen.
The location is not far from the lake and the railway station. The room has everything you need for living. Private staff at the reception who helped.

We liked the position of the Guest House. The kitchen was nice with a kettle and a refrigerator.

NetherlandsThere is a little kitchenette with stove inside the bedroom. In the hallway there was a certain smell that I link to cooking on such a stove. It smelled a bit like fire and this put me in cautious-mode. I think it is dangerous when people can cook in their hotel room. This made me feel a bit unsafe and I went to check emergency-exits. I do not think these are the best when something happens.
The location is perfect and parking is easy in the blue lines. For free!

SwitzerlandThe AC didn’t really work so we slept with the windows open. There was a tiny bit of mold in the shower door, but nothing too terrible or that would deter from the overall experience.
The location is great, very easy to access by public transport and walking distance from the lake, plus a very nice walk to the city center. The beds were comfy, there was a well stocked coffee machine in the ground floor and little amenities in the kitchen and room.

SwitzerlandIt rather feels like you are staying at a dorm than a hotel. The name of this place is GuestHouse - so, I guess I should not have expected it to be a hotel. The distance and the hill to climb on your way back from the city often makes you think twice if you want to get out again. So, my advise would be to carry all you may need for the day and then go out and explore Lugano and return after dinner!
while the location was good, it is about a 12-15 min walk to the city center. So, be prepared for this. I loved it cos I'm a walker but my friend struggled a little. It's a beautiful walk overlooking and along the lake. I also really liked the receptionist who checked us in. She was friendly, thorough, kind and attentive. The room has a nice balcony which I requested when booking and i appreciated that a lot. There is a mini market in the gas station next door which is handy and open till 10pm.
