How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The room was not perfectly clean. We stayed for 4 nights, and the room was not cleaned or all the towels changed every day.
The location was excellent, the staff were very helpful, and the breakfast selection was good. The hotel provided a card for free public transportation, which was very convenient and a pleasant surprise.

Hurried to check out from cleaning staff, although I was right on time at 12. Getting a call in the room and also one person entering the room directly after just a short knock at 11:50 rushing me to leave was unpleasant. This didn't happen to me anywhere at other hotels and I was not late checking out.
Nice staff at the reception, transportation included in city tax, possibility to relax in the downstairs lounge, great breakfast choice and nice personnel during breakfast service.

The room is dark with a few lights. We stayed 27/02-03/03 and the room was very cold, AC was set for 28C, but we had to switch it off as it was making the room even colder. Not a single hook to hang a coat! The wardrobe on the wall as on picture was absent. The other wardrobe is very small… Breakfast was OK, with no salad options.
Location was good for our needs. Room was a good size for 2, comfortable bed. Very friendly staff.

I do understand that Switzerland is an expensive country, but for 185 eur per night, I would have expected more: the room was relatively small, there was no seif, the last refurbishment was done some time ago... An important note is room temperature: during our stay, the real temperature in the room was around 20-21 degrees, too cold for us, given it was winter time (room thermostat was set at the maximum).
Location was one tram station away from the main rail station. We received a public transportation pass for the entire stay, which was very useful. Breakfast was plentful and qualitative. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. Our room, at 6th floor, facing the railway, was quiet. The room was clean and taken care of every day. Staff was friendly.

The room itself was okay, but I did feel it could have been cleaner—especially the bathroom. Overall, it was a decent stay, but I think a little more attention to cleanliness would make it even bette
The breakfast was definitely a highlight, with a wide variety of options to kickstart the day. The hotel is also conveniently located near the main train station, with a tram stop just a short walk away.

The room wasn't very clean: hair on the ground of the room and bathroom, and some small junk (no thank to the previous customers either, eh). During breakfast, there was a big tv screen above our table. It was showing the latest news, including war scenes and medical images. This was disturbing our kids. However, the staff refused to turn if off, arguing they "had" to show the news and that it was without sound anyhow.
The reception staff was very friendly and professional and keen to guide us into an enjoyable weekend in Basel. They prepared us a set of Basel cards that we weren't aware of, but allowed us to enjoy free public transportation during our stay and reduced prices on many attractions.
