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.).

CanadaSmall things really... no towels or soap in the room the first night (an oversight it seems, but taken care of right away), it would be great if there was complimentary coffee/tea in the room, and a small fridge would have made things easier. No air conditioning, but I knew that and brought a travel fan. Overall, I loved this hotel and would absolutely stay here again.
Exceptional staff, incredible location, stunning views, comfortable beds, great breakfast (don't pass up 8ncluding breakfast in your stay! ), nice size room, and clean! Did I mention the amazing staff and outstanding views?! ;) The welcome tart was a sweet gesture too! Lovely hotel that stands tall at the end of what I called "Main Street". It's a short walk from the train station, or you can ask for someone to come get you. The restaurant has lovely food for dinner but it is a bit pricey (mind you, it's Switzerland.. everything is pricey! Haha). If you're looking for a base to tour around the Jungfrau region, this is it. The train to Lauterbrunnen leaves every 13 minutes and is a lovely ride... or even better, walk there! (Approx 1 hr). Take the cable car (2 min walk from hotel) up to Männlichen and make a day of hiking and sightseeing among the majestic mountains! Wengen itself is stunningly beautiful and sunny. When the rain comes, it seems to quickly leave, and the clouds clear fast. Lauterbrunnen is nice, but doesn't hold the same charm or have as much sun. Bottom line, stay here. You'll love it! (Sorry about the room picture quality, I forgot to take a good one! )

United StatesWe loved everything really, but maybe some egg choices would have been nice for breakfast.
This was our first time in Switzerland and this hotel was the absolute perfect place to stay!! The views from the hotel balconies and terrace, the charm of the hotel, and the wonderful staff could not have been better. We enjoyed spending time with our family on the terrace and found the views to be amazing and the hotel (with its very helpful staff) to be such a comfortable place. This hotel made it a dream vacation for our family!

The hotel is very close to the train station and they have a mini car to help you with luggage. Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful for whatever request you have. We had a very pretty room on the 4th floor. Breakfast was simply amazing! Dinner is also very good

AustraliaNo fan or aircon so during the hot days it was pretty hard to sleep. There are doors which you can open up to the balcony but I could hear noise through them while shut so I think I would of struggled with the noise particularly if the doors were open. Also pillows are like sleeping on a shirt - some people may like their pillows flat but I would need with much more filling. No kettle or coffee machine in the room, though there is one available in the kitchen/restaurant on the bottom level. Found the breakfast service to be a bit unfriendly as if the server didn’t want to be there, but still a good breakfast. They have a board for you to hang your key by the front door of the hotel as you go out for the day which I did not think was very secure especially when Reception are not there the whole day. In other hotels I’ve stayed in, the keys are kept with Reception behind the counter.
beautiful views from the window and good location for seeing Wengen or getting to the cable car or train station, very well written guidebook with loads of options that Reception can help with (e.g. borrowing a convertor for power), Good breakfast buffet (fruit & toast for vegans),

SwitzerlandItalian restaurant directly behind hotel plays very loud music outdoors in summer, music lasts from roughly 7 pm to 1030 pm, and is loud even in hotel rooms with doors and window shut - so no rest during those hours.
Outstanding location with balconies facing the mountains and the Jungfrau. Spectacular. Staff at reception especially helpful and friendly.

United StatesOur one major disappointment is the Schoenegg is not currently offering “fine dining”. We enjoyed the dinners immensely on a trip several years ago. In speaking with owner, we learned it has been very difficult to hire a chef. One is expected later this summer.
Comfortable setting with great view of the mountains. Selection of breads, meats and cheeses was excellent. It would have been nice to have eggs beyond soft or hard boiled, but many other hotels on our trip also are not offering a selection of hot eggs and meats.

United StatesThis was my second stay at this wonderful hotel. The view is really exceptional and the location is easily accessible from the train station. Our room was super comfortable and the breakfast and dining was first class. I have been to Wengen in both the summer and winter and while both are beautiful in their own way the summertime is exceptional with the lush green hills and the majestic glaciers of the Jungfrau. Cannot wait to return!

That said, the staff were excellent and so friendly. We also loved sitting on the terrace in the morning, afternoon and evening! The terrace is a beautiful place to gather with the most amazing view! It was nice to meet some of the other guests and to also have quiet time outside. thank you for making this a memorable vacation!
