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 KingdomOur room, and the duvets on the bed, were rather warm, but if we left a window open, the church bells would keep us awake. Not a major problem, though.
We had a light, attractive room with window boxes full of geraniums, and a nice view of the cobbled street. The breakfast was wonderful, with lots of variety and very nicely presented.

MaltaWe liked absolutely everything.
This place is a true gem and Sabrina and Pascal are the best hosts I've ever met (and there have been quite a few). The hotel is full of charm and history. It's well maintained, clean, great wifi connection. Luxurious duvets for our unexpected snowy stay mid-April. Super breakfast, strong, fresh coffee and personalised, connection based treatment as guests. Great location within Horgen too, close to all transport links and amenities. Highly recommended.

United KingdomThe only reason for Value for Money rating is due to the Swiss Franc being much stronger than the British Pound. Not the hotel's fault !
We booked a 5 day trip for my birthday, which was the 2nd day. We went down to breakfast, and our table was decorated with birthday serviettes and glitter. Totally unexpected as hotels on previous birthday trips didn't even mention it. It was a lovely touch, which was much appreciated, and was an example of Pascal and Sabrina's thoughtfulness and willingness to help with any advice or extras we may have needed.

United KingdomPerfect location in the picturesque village, a short downhill walk to the station, shops, and the lake. Very friendly and helpful staff, peaceful and relaxing atmosphere in this historic hotel. Lovely outside seating area where you can enjoy a drink in the sunshine, accompanied by the church bells. Attractive bar and restaurant area, plenty of choice at breakfast. Good sized bedroom and comfortable bed. We always look forward to staying at the Schwan!

United KingdomRoom could be bigger and brighter. Overnight air-con noise/ vibration issue.
Location was excellent! Staff excellent. Ambience excellent. Beautiful decorations. Nice and warm! Breakfast was very good- a nice selection of cold and cooked options and nicely presented. Great staff. Ideally would like some butter for bread or toast but maybe this is usual for Switzerland. Coffee nice too. The hotel was beautifully decorated with Christmas tree, and lots of lovely touches. Hotel was nice and warm. The staff were delightful and were around most of the time. We had a great welcome and really felt looked after. The bedroom (17 or 19?) was slightly small and not particularly great, slightly dull lighting. However bed very comfortable with beautiful cotton bed linen. Only issue we had ( which staff did address) was that there was a lot of low-level noise and vibration from the kitchen air-con, in the evening and even overnight on first night. This was quite substantial. The staff assured us it would be switched off earlier at night, but I think this possibly needs a definite resolution. If we visit again, will ask for a room in a different position to avoid kitchen air-con issue. We found the hotel a little expensive but good value for a quality experience. We have a very positive view of our lovely stay there. Horgen itself was also delightful.
