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.).

MonacoThe fact that as hotel guest you cannot book a table in the bar to eat and not a lot of lounge chairs compares to the nimber of rooms in hotel in the pool area to relax after sauna and pool (always occupied)

SwitzerlandThe breakfast was spectacular, specifically the staff!! The breakfast might have had the best buffet I have ever seen. Wellness & Fitness area were very clean and well taken care off The reception staff was attentive and lovely at all times. Only the staff at the main restaurant were unfortunately a bit unmotivated and in general not very engaged with their work or guests. But overall I would highly recommend this hotel and will definitely come back!

SwitzerlandThe place could truly be world-class, but unfortunately the interior design is a complete miss! It looks like a B-league interior design bureau would have compiled a mood board by looking at the wrong Instagram channels. The entrance hall just doesn't work and the furniture of the common areas feels cheap and already passé. The corridors are decorated with "inspiring" quotes that are just one notch above the "I [heart] travel" and "welcome home" you would see in some medium-range AirBnBs. The whole design concept revolves around "Origins" (was it sponsored by Nespresso?): walking along the corridors, you are told stories about the Mustang people of Nepal, the ancient Kingdom of Ko, and some remote Papua New Guinea tribes, complete with pictures in loincloth. Instead of acting as the "invitation au voyage" it was presumably sold as, the elements take away the attention from the historical details and from the views. The exoticizing of indigenous people feels off and will not miss to trigger the first group of American lefties passing by the station. Instead of connecting me with my human origins as it was trying hard to do, the place made me feel like I was in some random airport Novotel. If Villars Palace really insists to have information written on its walls (please don't!), then at least something about the origins of the hotel, about Swissness or maybe about some local artisans or athletes would work better.
Amazing building, great renovation, great housekeeping standard (e.g. turndown service), fantastic details (manually folded curtain bottoms in the rooms), great location, great bed, great views, very good food, nice floor bar concept, nice toiletries, great selection of books in the lobby, nice swimming pool, beautiful gym, excellent breakfast buffet with several local specialities. I got upgraded and had a much better room than the one I booked, which was a very nice surprise.

MontenegroSmall rooms without enough space and one very small wardrobe. Ski room was cold as ice, our ski equipment was wet every day and couldn’t be dried because heaters were not working. Just one restaurant in the hotel was fully booked every night. In the bar was the worst service ever, it was multiple situations where we were waiting for tea or bottle of water for more than hour. Situations where we ordered and didn’t get our order ever.. There is no indoor pool and outside pool was not enough warm. No floor heating in the rooms.. New Years Eve was boring program, but nice food.
Interior, location,BREAKFAST WAS PERFECT, all the stuff were so kind and helpful.
