Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThe towels were quite small and the shower water leaked into the room a little, but only a dribble. Not much storage for clothes aside from the hangers. More coffee for breakfast would have been nice.
The beds were amazing - haven't slept that well in a hotel for a long time. The room (garden view) was very quiet and visually stunning. We enjoyed the complimentary bottles of wine and water and the 'normal' clothes hangers were much appreciated. The staff were wonderful and the breakfast was great. We also enjoyed the cocktails in the Barfly Bar and the music room.

United StatesThe air conditioning in the room was not able to lower the temperature to our comfort.
Hotel Josefine pampered us in unexpected ways. It's refined, comfortable, and situated in a great location. The breakfast was excellent. Everything is stylish and done in good taste. The staff bent over backwards to meet our needs. In general, they pay attention to the smallest detail to make guests' stay as enjoyable as possible: from the on-the-house bottle of wine and water waiting for you on the day of our arrival, to the great music played quietly everywhere in the building, to the comfortable beds and great bathroom, everything contributed to our wonderful experience in Vienna and in this hotel. Special thanks to the staff. They are absolutely amazing!

LuxembourgThe rooms had everything you needed, but they were a bit small, but in historical buildings, I guess, this is not possible to change. Else everything was really perfect.
The location was absolutely great. The people serving at breakfast were absolutely great and always made our day (6 girls) start with a smile. They were fast, friendly and very service minded and some of our favourite time there, was actually at the breakfast table - thank you :-)

IsraelThe general facilities were very clean. The cleaning staff did a good job in our room, but didn't clean the floor every day. There was almost no place to store clothing, but we improvised by using the top of the (rather small) shelf box. The shower and the toilet shared one sliding door, which was strange, but we got used to it.
The breakfast was outstanding - truly excellent. The hotel and room's design were lovely. The staff was friendly and did their best to be helpful. The bed was comfortable, and the shower worked well, though we had to lower the water pressure so that the water wouldn't leak out under to t=door to the room. The location was great - very close to public transportation, and walking distance to the old city center.

KuwaitNothing. Everything was perfect.
What's not to like? The location, the decorations,the staff, everything was beyond my expectations. It was the perfect ending to our 10-day tour in Austria, and this is our first time here. The duplex to bedroom unit was beautiful and mesmerizing to the point where we thought that maybe we should extend just to enjoy the hotel. The terrace is beautiful looking over Vienna. Would definitely recommend this to anyone coming to Vienna.

NetherlandsThe logistics regarding breakfast in the (cosy) bar downstairs are not good. Its too slow and inconvenient. Also, the coffee machine in the room sucks. But with all the other great stuff, you don't really mind.
Great atmosphere, lots of space in suite, nice people, quiet, location, good airco, good beds: we loved it. Some minor hickups (lift, shower) where fixed immediately. Would stay there absolutely again.

I loved being transported back to the music and decor of the 1920’s. Such great ambiance! We actually spent time at the hotel bar Barfly’s. The drinks are fantastic. Get the breakfast-by far the best breakfast- they are very generous. The staff’s customer service was excellent. So helpful and positive!! They also had plenty of suggestions of what to do and eat. They also had a room full of records and you can play what you want from the huge collection. If we come back to Vienna we will definitely stay again.

GermanyThe room - while being beautiful - could still be a bit more practical. A vanity mirror with lights next to the sink would be very helpful, it was next to impossible to find a good spot in the room to do our makeup. It could also have been swept under the bed, it was a little dusty and a previous guest's nail polish was underneath the bed.
From the moment you walk into the Hotel Josefine it's like you're being transported to a different era. The music, the impressive staircase are giving the 20s vibe. The staff was very attentive and helpful from the first moment - carrying our suitcases up the stairs and into the room. Also the room was very pretty and quiet. Everything was very tasteful and we felt comfortable. The hotel is also close to subway stops and even walking distance to the Westbahnhof.

United KingdomThe bathroom arrangements with a curtain and a single slide door that covered either the shower or the WC was a little curious and I would have preferred a little more privacy. Coffee making facilities would have been nice but certainly not a dealbreaker!
The location was great, the breakfast was fresh and attentive. The content was not particularly for my liking but the volume of food was plentiful and I have no complaints here. The staff were very friendly and helpful and worked hard. The complimentary bottle of wine was really appreciated.

RomaniaThis hotel was nothing but perfect! Everything is so beautiful, the design of the place is really well thought-out, it's very cohesive and aesthetic. The room was beautifully decorated, the bed was beyond comfortable, so much so that I've taken pictures of all the tags and will be ordering my own set of pillows and duvets. The staff was implacable. I forgot an item in the room and realized after I left the country. They were very responsive and helped with shipping the item back to me. The breakfast food was very high quality and so, so delicious. All in all, an amazing stay and my only regret is the fact that I was there only two nights.

Great location, just off the main shopping street which lead to the museum quarter so perfect for wandering about. Loved the Art-Deco style, the rooms were decorated beautifully. Complimentary wine in the room was an unexpected treat. Bed really comfy. Didn’t have breakfast at the hotel but the menu did look great so will try if we visit again.
