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 KingdomWe booked this hotel because it had a restaurant and bar, but sadly they were closed, and we were not told this on booking it was only open weekend's, but people were drinking and eating outside, So had to walk 25 minutes to colditz town, and it is all up hill on the way back. We were told breakfast was at 8am, this is not true as people had, had there breakfast and left, we had the scraps that was left, not even worth going to eat, we didn't bother with breakfast the next day and ate on the road.
The hotel and room were very clean and tidy, and smelled nice.

United Kingdom1 night stop. The room, facilities and breakfast were great, and for us, the location was just right. Simone was the perfect host and looked after us well. The Little DDR museum on site is interesting, and the people we met were a great source of info for me regarding the times before the "Wende". All in all a great stay.

United KingdomNo one at the property could speak English, which was not clear when I booked. There is no reception and you had to shout for someone to come. The hotel on entering smelled of old cigarettes and was generally in a low-maintenance state. The car park was not secure or gated. My room on the top floor was accessible by a set of stairs and a lift. There was a kitchenette directly outside my room door which appeared to be for guests (see picture), however, when I opened the microwave to heat something an angry old man came rushing out shouting in German and promptly closed it, I left to my room and locked the door, the old man spent the next 5-10 minutes hammering on my door! (clearly, long-term residents also live there). The breakfast was out, but no one was there, consisting of a couple of slices of cheese and ham and sliced tomato (there were 2 lots of cereals but no milk I could see and no bread etc) with a coffee flask with only warm coffee in it and a very small jug of milk (enough to add to the warm coffee making it cold). I would rate this hotel at less than 1 star, it was a grotty room (dead flies on window etc), poor service and certainly not worth one-fifth of the money I paid for it. I definitely DO NOT recommend it.
The location was ok, but it was quite a walk up and down steep hills to the town.
