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.).

Switzerlandnothing- is a great place
Fantastic outdoor wood fired hot tub- perfect for a soak after a day hiking or skiing. the breakfast is very nice and lots of fresh local produce. Very friendly hosts- our room was splendid and it felt in the middle of the meadows and lulled to ship by the gentle cling cling of cow bells. Easy reachable by cablecar or car (summer only)

PortugalAbsolutely nothing.
EVERYTHING IS JUST AMAZING. The photos you see here can’t explain to you how beautiful this place is. Just book it you will not regret it. It’s mentioned that the check in time is super early but the lady left the keys hidden so we could check in at any time (we arrived at 1 am). There’s only one thing: at night, you have the road blocked by an electric fence, we stopped there in the middle of the night, no light at all, trying to figure how to pass this electric fence. It’s easier than it seems, you just run your car through it and it’s ok! Such an Amazing place with AMAZING STAFF!!!

PolandThe hotel is located in a charming place, between the beautiful Bernese Alps. From the hotel, there is a cable car to the top of the Rindenberg mountain and down to the town of Zweisimmen. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. Very good food served in the hotel restaurant. And after a walk in the mountains, you can relax in the spa area, overlooking the mountains.

NetherlandsThat I did not have the chance to visit the spa area, or sample some of the wines. What a pity.
The rooms (2) were quiet, very clean and well-equipped. Breakfast was great. The restaurant provided extremely tasty food from the local suppliers. The range of wines was impressive. The garden area with the beautiful range of flowers and the relaxing sun area was quite unique. The spa area was a great addition and the proximity of the gondola (cable car) to the hotel connected the town of Zweisimmen, the hotel Rinderberg and the mountain top. The view from the balcony was breathtaking.

IsraelReviews didn’t mention that the drive up at night is a long drive on a narrow alpine road . We arrived approximately at 9 pm and the front door to the reception was locked and not lit up . There should be an intercom and lighting at the front entrance for guests arriving late.

SwitzerlandNothing...important but as always in Switzerland prices, I understand higher prices but still...everything is pretty expensive compared to other countries. If it goes into the pockets of the the staff (supervisors included) not a problem...at all levels were well treated.
Great location, we were right in the middle of the pastures. Having a dog was a little bit complicated but we were able to do all the trails we wanted to do.....an we got back the hot tubes and sauna!!!!!!! Sooo great... Everybody on the staff! They come from all horizons and they do there best. Je suis vaudois/bernois, and did there best and it was great! Outdoor spa great, incredible sights and sounds at the end of the day!

The Alpine Lodge is an amazing place on the slopes of the Rinderberg. We went in summer and we were directed towards some incredible walks bringing us to idyllic places such as the top of the Rinderberg at 2078m. Upon return of these walks a Wonderfull wellness was waiting for us. Hassan was very helpful and you could ask him anything without hesitation. Breakfast and dinner were very good, even if you are a vegan. The chef prepares very nice vegan and regular salat plates with fresh herbs from there garden!! The ladies at the front desk made us feel comfortable and at home from the moment we walked in the door. All the superior rooms have a balcony overlooking the Gstaad valley and mountains. We definitely will come back and we recommend this place to everyone...Love Ine en Ellen❤️

SwitzerlandThe hotel WiFi didn't cover our room on the top floor very well. Also, the sauna is only open from 3pm in the afternoon, and is set to a very low temperature (60 degrees) but obviously these are only very minor issues!
This hotel is located right next to the mid-way cable car station up to Rinderberg, above the town of Zweisimmen. As such you have amazing views of the surrounding peaks, and only the noise of the birds, crickets and cowbells. The hotel itself has a pleasing wooden chalet-style exterior, and a very minimalist interior that was still very pleasing. The restaurant is a highlight, with all of the food we ordered very well cooked and presented, and very tasty. The breakfast selection was relatively simple, but with plenty of everything. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The hotel also has a small outdoor sauna and a wood fire-heated hot tub.
