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 StatesThe noise from the other guests didn’t help me sleep, I’m a light sleeper so I couldn’t sleep right away. No mini fridge
I arrived pretty late at about 2pm to Interlaken Ost and took a walk towards the hotel. I did this to taken in the sights and because I wasn’t carrying a lot ( just a backpack and small duffle). The hotel is right next to the lake, the bus stop is very close just a short 5 min walk from the hotel. I didn’t stay long (just one night) and since I had to catch an early train the following day, I told them about an early check out and they said I could just no one would be at the desk in the early morning, 5am, and to pay the taxes fee (about 4 Swiss francs). Also the hotel closes the front door at 9pm, if you come back after you would have to come in from the back of restaurant thats right next to the hotel. The room was small perfect for a solo traveler and had a TV with cable, blowdryer, small safe, a small table with a comfy sofa seat and closet space. I was surprised to see no mini fridge though. The bathroom was small but clean. The shower had a small space to sit which is nice for people who need it. However, since it is small the toilet is very close to the shower so it is a bit of a tight space. The bed was comfortable as were the pillows. It was pretty noisy at night as I could hear the other guests in the room above and in the hallway. Not super noisy but just something to keep in mind. I wasn’t able to try their free breakfast as I did an early check out. All in all, great place for solo travelers and the view from the hotel is amazing even if you don’t get a balcony view. :)

The Seehotel is clean and staff are friendly. Room Furnitures are old and bed is shrinking at the same time the pillows. Very uncomfortable to sleep and relax when you’re on vacation means to relax but this is not the place to stay.

United StatesProperty is too old and the rooms doors, furniture, bathrooms needs to upgrade, hard to find the electrical outlets, please stay away from this hotel if you can. we booked two rooms together they separated us on different floors. Lights won't stay on the corridor it's too dark in the night you have to find the switch with the flash light to turn on the light, Elevator too small and old. One of the bathrooms had floor linoleum installed on the walls. I do not remember so many other things. But it was very disappointing.
Just the view and it's next to the Brienz Lake. Dining hall was nicely setup. Free parking.

Saudi ArabiaBesides that there was no kettle, no privacy at the terrace, no AC. the room is full of spiders!, and my wife (as many people) is afraid of spiders, therefore I have told the reception about it and he replied with (we are in a country side, do u want me to grab it for u ?) I said yes please, he replied "couldn't u do that by yourself!!", I have been in many countries and places that considered "country side" and never seen as much spiders as here!
