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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

SwitzerlandThe decoration is outdated.
Well located in the center of Kandersteg, close to the train station, Oeschinensee Gondola,...the room was really big and well equipped, with good views on the mountains from the balcony. The staff is helpful. Good breakfast. The big plus is the sauna :)

AustraliaAll good. A sofa would be nice rather than chairs.
Great location. Bus 230 from station takes you there (2 stops). Room was very clean. Buffet breakfast had a good variety of food. They were able to provide soy milk due to my dairy allergy which I notified a few days ahead. It has a small elevator. They can give you a tourist card that gives free bus and train travel and discounts on gondolas. Restaurant meals are good and reasonable prices compared to others around.

United Arab EmiratesNo balcony, however we had the mountain view from the room.
Where the hotel is situated Nice balcony with a great view of the mountains, soothing bird sounds, and a bus stop that is conveniently located (free travel with hotel city card). lovely breakfast and spacious room. (Alarmingly, another private bed) neighbouring sites, to name a few Lake Oeschinen, the tobogun run, the train station and the bus stop next to the hotel are all eight minutes' walk away. Get the city card from the hotel as a tip. The receptionist gave electric converter. Lift facility, hotel restaurant

NetherlandsNothing to add. Everything was according to my liking.
Great location in Kandersteg! Very close to Blausee (10 min with the bus) and Oeschiensee Lake (10 min walk to the cable cars). I would highly recommend paying a little extra for a room with the mountain view! It was breathtaking. The hotel also offers discount tickets to some attractions, cable cars and free public transport in the area. The bus stops right in front of the hotel. Unfortunately, I didn't have the pleasure to try the breakfast, so I can't give an opinion on that, but I would definitely stay here again if I ever visit Kandersteg again.

United StatesWhen we were, at the of May, the temperatures were still pretty low and it was raining; some of our clothes got wet but the hotel did not turn on the heater in bathroom; so our room was a bit cold; but after a while the owner gave a portable heater for the room, which was enough.
We stayed in a new part of the hotel; the room was large enough, beds were confortable.
