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.).

LuxembourgThe hotel staff were overall very friendly and helpful, which we greatly appreciated. However, there is room for improvement in their guest approach. A more attentive and proactive manner could enhance the guest experience. For example, during dinner, I waited for 15 minutes with my plate after finding a hair in my food, and the staff noticed but did not approach me until I called a waiter. Additionally, at the breakfast buffet, there was no one to welcome me or show me where to sit, and I had to wait for 5 minutes before seating myself inside instead of on the terrace due to a lack of guidance. Plus buffet was kinda empty when I arrived at 9:50 (breakfast on sunday was until 10:30!!) In the wellness area, it was very loud and crowded, making it difficult to relax. Also I felt likr sitting in a glass house/zoo The presence of external visitors in the pool and spa areas also contributed to the noise and overcrowding. I would prefer these facilities to be exclusive to hotel guests. Furthermore, my massage was disrupted by the noise from other spa users.
-Parking right before my room was great - The hotel staff were overall friendly and tried to be helpful -snackbar at the spa was nice -wellness/spa area; good idea but could be better

SwitzerlandIn our opinion the main space for improvement is in the spa area - the swimming pool felt full of chemicals, and after a delightful sauna area it was a little disappointing.
The hotel offers a fantastic blend of nature, comfort, attentiveness from personnel, and wellness. This establishment is ideal for those seeking a relaxing escape with the added benefits of a spa and a restaurant. Its located very close to the city center of Varese, as well as other dining places and natural attractions.

AlbaniaThe room was extremely hot, I called at midnight reception and asked to fix the air-conditioning but, still it was blowing hot air. When you pay 250 euro/night for a room, I think, guests should be able to fix the room temperature not to call the reception to do it!! We had to leave the window open all night, the hotel is next to a busy road therefore, the noise was disturbing! Swimming pool very small and crowded !
Staff is very polite and helpful; the family room was of goods size. Very good restaurant, on our arrival we were late for lunch but the waiter managed to serve us very nice lunch.

FranceAn interesting hotel in terms of its eco-concept. Nice spa, swimming pool with jacuzzi and saunas. Excellent breakfasts. Quiet, calm. There is a pet store nearby, which looks more like a mini-zoo. We enjoyed walking there.

Good hotel if you’re staying in the area for a couple of days, next to the lake.

SwitzerlandThe SPA was a little bit disappointing. Despite having reserved time slots, the SPA was overcrowded, making it difficult to relax. Additionally, the presence of kids playing and screaming disrupted the peaceful atmosphere. Moreover, it would have been convenient to have towels available in the SPA area, as the bathrobe provided wasn't sufficient for drying off after treatments.
Overall, our stay at this hotel was pleasant. The hotel itself is beautiful and modern, and the staff were warm and accommodating throughout our visit. The breakfast offered was enjoyable.

FranceIt was not the idylic country hotel I imagined - the road nearby is quite noisy, even at night (if you sleep with an open window as we did - no waking up to the birds singing. Not impressed with the breakfast - had to eat it with lots of flies flying around and landing on us and the food (some sort of electronic fly catcher would probably be a good idea), the selection of food will not leave one hungry for sure but nothing special to report.
Excellent base to visit the lakes and Milan, loved the parking arrangements right in front of the entrance to the room. The personnel lovely and helpful. Lots of great places to eat around Vareze and around. DId not try the restaurant in the hotel - Thought would try the authentic (and much cheaper) nearby places and did not regret. We had outstanding meals the 3 nights we stayed - Bologna restaurant in Vareze expecially recommended. The room is clean, well appointed and nicely decorated. The mattress is on the hard side which I personally loved.

United KingdomThe rooms were poorly equipped in term of storage for clothes. No drawers/ shelves for clothes and no rails in the bathroom to hang towels. Expected a kettle in room but this was not the case. Found the spa manager somewhat officious.
The spa and pool were great, although the additional charge to have a sun bed around the pool seemed unnecessary. Breakfast was good, snack bar Ok but there was a poor selection of ice creams etc. Staff were generally extremely helpful.
