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...).

SwitzerlandThe church was right in front of my room, and the bells chime every 15 minutes. I had read about it in the comments before coming, but there are not so many alternatives in such a small village, and I know the property can’t do anything about it.
Very conveniently located for hikers. The facilities are rustic and well maintained, and the lady who helped me with the check-in is lovely. If it wasn’t for the bells and the noise, I would give a 10.

United StatesSuper clean and comfy room. Amazing host that provided bowls for hot foot bath after our long, cold, and wet walk from Bern. Since there was no place for dinner in this town, the host brought us bowls of homemade veggie soup for dinner. Great breakfast too with Nespresso in the room.

GermanyThe only thing that we didn’t like, that the church bells rang all night. For a short stay ok, but for a long vacation it would be difficult.
Very interesting interior design with specific character. The hotel owner is very friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was great and delicious. There are a lot of board games in the hall, so we could play at the evening. There’s a minibar, ice, coffee and tea, so everything that you can need.

LuxembourgAll was good.
Warm welcome by the owner. Breakfast was delicious, with local Swiss produce. The B&B is in a traditional wooden Swiss house, with a very good view from our window overlooking the mountains. The room was decorated with very good taste. Everything was spotless clean, including the shared bathrooms. We had a great time, would definitely recommend!

BelgiumThis place exceeded my expectations - it is a beautiful old house (very well taken care of) filled with vintage pieces giving it a unique vibe, located in a charming, quiet village on the hill. We received a warm welcome from the owner upon arrival and ended our stay with a delicious breakfast. We absolutely enjoyed our 1-night stay here and would happily come back in the future!

IndiaThe only downside was the slow Wi-Fi, which wasn't a major issue for me but could be for those who rely on a fast internet connection.
The host was incredibly kind and accommodating. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of delicious options. The location was ideal, being conveniently close to the bus stop. The rooms were tidy and well-maintained, with ample closet space and plenty of charging sockets.
