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 KingdomNo plug sockets by the bed (although they did provide an extension cable), the pillows weren't comfortable.
Amazing view of the Matterhorn from our room. It was so special that we got engaged on the balcony! The location was just perfect, right next to the best ski lift! Loved the fire and breakfast choices. The staff really made our stay special, loved the surprises for our birthdays. The boot room was great for storing everything too!

LuxembourgThe breakfast did not meet our standards. You could offer a bit more variety when it came to eggs, salads/vegetables and sweets. For example, there was only tomatoes and cucumbers packed in glass pots (which we found a bit pointless). Croissants were good but not enough for those who have a sweet tooth in the morning. Quality was a bit of an issue too (e.g. the eggs were inedible - either not boiled at all or cooked to death). There was also no change at all in the buffet - we ate exactly the same things every day. In terms of comfort, we would have liked to have the option to have dinner at the hotel after spending all day skiing on the slopes. Our room was constantly too hot and we did not manage to solve the issue even after raised with the reception. There were nights we had to sleep with the window open to cool down the temperature. We were also surprised to find scratches and holes on the walls of our room - this was not really in line with the price we paid and overall quality of the hotel.
Hotel staff were super friendly and helpful with everything we asked for. They even offered me a cream to sooth pain from skiing. The spa area was really nice and well-maintained. Matterhorn view from the room was amazing.

SwitzerlandThe pool/hot tub water could have been warmer. It was a bit too cool to be outside on the colder days. The ski room was a bit cramped.
The room was a very good size and did not feel cramped even for a weeks stay. The shower was one of the better ones we have had in a hotel room. The view was amazing as the room had an unobstructed view of the Matterhorn. The staff were very friendly and personable. The breakfast was quite nice.

PolandThe hotel doesn’t serve dinner and sometimes after all day of skiing and sauna, you just simply want to stay in and have a meal at your hotel.
I loved the design and location of the hotel. The lounge area with a modern fireplace made you want to be there all the time when not skiing ;) The rooms are greatly designed as well. It’s all about the details there. The staff has been very nice and always helpful, those guys made our stay even more enjoyable! And the fact that when you leave the hotel and gondola is just right in front of you makes it so convenient and time efficient when you go skiing.

CanadaI was only staying the one night so I got the cheapest room on Booking.com. The room was clean and okay but NO WINDOWS what so ever. Only a skylight so the room felt like a dungeon. Again, I was only here for the one night but when I come back I will request that my room has a view or else I will just go else where. The hotel is located at a point where the views are spectacular so having a room without was the biggest let down. Also, the location is great for those who strictly want to ski but I will warn you that it is a bit of a trek to walk to town for dinner or drinks and even the train station (However, they do have transportation to and from the train station. Just have to advise them ahead of time).
I really liked this hotel and it may be my Hotel of choice when I return to Zermatt again. The atmosphere and vibe where new and refreshing. The breakfast was good and their self-services spa was AMAZING. I really enjoyed it and was able to relax and unwind. The staff were execellent. The biggest Seller for me was LOCATION. You are literally right next to the Gondola that will take you up the mountian(s) so if you are here for skiing, hike and getting up to the mountain peak this place is for you. Very much recommend it.

United StatesWould prefer if it was an adults only hotel but I understand that families want to stay here too. It’s not as relaxing in the spa and pool when kids are yelling and splashing around.
This is the second time we’ve stayed at the Focus and it keeps getting better and better. They treat you like family and have an incredibly high level of service. Stayed in the Dom suite and the architecture was stunning and the views of the Matterhorn jaw dropping.

United KingdomEverything was excellent….we battled with a variety of pillow but they have an option for everyone.
- We chose one of the rooms with a balcony overlooking the Matterhorn and I guarantee it was worth every Penny. The weather didn’t always work in our favour but we wouldn’t have changed a think. - The hotel go to make your stay memorable from the moment you arrive including pick up from the train station.

United Statesnothing at all.
A perfect stay in Zermatt made possible by everyone and everything in FOCUS. Ms. Tamara who welcomed us in the frontdesk was exceptional. The shuttle chauffeur was very helpful, free shuttle ride from check in to check out. You could tell that the builders and designers took their time building this masterpiece. They even surprised me for my bday with some decors. The breakfast had a lot of variety especially for us meat lovers. Checking out was pleasant with the lady staff. We love the spa (especially the steamer) and the pool. The weather is perfect. The tunnel is cool as if you're in a james bond movie. You have to stay at the suite we stayed at atleast once in your life. Surely we'll return, and many more of our friends and families since they love the pics and videos of this hotel we sent them. Thank you FOCUS. We were so inspired by everything. Now we know how dreamy Zermatt is.

SwitzerlandLocation - at the end of Zermatt. Next to the mountain lifts - you have a horrible tower in the middle of the Matterhorn view. ( website photos did a great job hiding it ) No on-site restaurant - after a long day hiking an on-site restaurant would’ve been nice, since each taxi trip to Zermatt was 20.- francs and logistically tiring No dogs allowed
Beautiful room ( suite 50 ) Great service all around - they prepared breakfast for us at 5am since my partner had a race on the day, even if official breakfast time started at 7am. Baby services - baby bed and robe Nice spa and breakfast
