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...).

Switzerland- Staff is super friendly and competent. - You can have breakfast even very early. There is a special room where you can have breakfast if you need to take it very early. - The bar/restaurant downstairs is a both cosy and modern place. I liked to spend hours there to rest or even work on my laptop. - Bus station is very close, like 50 m from the hotel.

FranceThe room was a little too enclosed perhaps but that was more because of the architecture and for a pure overnight stay, it was perfectly OK.
Very friendly and helpful staff who went out of their way to help and answer questions. They are a real asset to the hotel. The hotel itself is perfectly decent and good value but they make the difference.

SwitzerlandThis was my second stay within 3 months, this time a bicycle tour. This hotel has a wonderful ambience with posters and memorabilia based on pop & rock history from the 50‘s thru 80‘s. Very friendly and helpful staff - excellent retaurant and a collection of interesting beers. The breakfast was impeccable! Very good value for money. They also provided a lock-up garage for storing bicycles overnight.

SwitzerlandNothing at all!
From the picture on Booking.com, the hotel looked a bit run down but the reality is that it is a recently-renovated place with a 50’s - 70‘s music theme and adorned by really nice posters of musical events. The main bar/dining area is beautifully done and they serve a variety of craft beers, even including an Irish IPA!! Staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the breakfast very good indeed. I do a lot of 2 - 3 day backpacking trips in Switzerland and this is the best hotel I have stayed in so far!

BelgiumThe rooms don't have good sound insulation, and in front of the the hotel there is a church with a very loud bell that can wake you up early in the morning, or during a possible afternoon nap. The staff mostly spoke german, and no english, but were always very friendly and communicative through hand gestures.
Awesome location, as it is it is less than 20 min to the ski resort Schwarzsee and or Fribourg city. The hotel is also cheaper than at other places at ski resort Schwarzsee. On the ground floor there is one large caffé/bar, which is quite lively as it seemed to be the only one in town.

GermanyMaybe the room doors could have some silent closers or silencing strips, to stop some of them from banging when people close them.
The location was lovely. The restaurant was in a bright and modern decor with paintings and drawings of 'Hirsche'. The hotel is located opposite the church with its beautiful sounding bells. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. The room was spacious and decorated in a wood cabin style. The dinner we had was excellent, albeit not cheap. Food in Switzerland is expensive, so not the fault of the hotel. The breakfast was superb, offering a huge selection of artisan bread, croissants, jams, meat, local cheeses, and lots more. The lady serving our breakfast even wrapped up some of the local cheeses we had not eaten to take with us. Certainly worth a visit. Thanks very much again and keep up the excellent work.

IsraelProximity to the church (bell), but this was known. With earplugs not so much an issue. Check in could have been better, staff is busy serving restaurant clients, feels like they don't have time for you.
Convenient parking, the place is in the center, room is ok, good breakfast. Earplugs left near the bed are a thoughtful gesture.

NetherlandsThe room itself was not comfortable at all. The bed consists of 2 separate wooden cribs so you sleep with wooden middle piece. We knew we shared a bathroom, but no single sink at the room, no soap or towel at the toilet appears shabby, seen the price of more than €100 for the room. Even more because a (closed) connecting door to other guests' room was very noisy while neighbour guests arrived noisy at 2 o 'clock in the night.
Very welcoming staff by arriving and helpful by our late diner.

United KingdomCheck-in was poor. There are no signs so we asked at the bar and were kept waiting for 20 minutes, and then just handed a key. No idea why we had to wait and why we were ignored for so long. Meals at the hotel are expensive, chicken burger and chips £25, kids 3 chicken nuggets and chips £9.50. That's £60 without drinks and service charge, which is rediculous. The town was dead on Sunday, everywhere (including other eating places) was closed. Our other complaint is outside the hotels control but if we had know we would Not have stayed here. On Sunday (the only day we stayed so cannot be sure about weekdays) the church across the road rings it bells Every 15 minutes, all day and all night. It drove us crazy and meant a poor night's sleep. We definitely would not stay here again.
Room was a good size with twin beds pushed together, lovely and clean. Had balcony which was nice, but only one chair, so one of us had to sit on the floor, when enjoying the view of the church and busy road. Breakfast was excessive, there is no way two people could eat what we were given. I think the cost to stay was expensive just because of the amount of food given out at breakfast. Just to give you an idea, we were given: two bowls of oats in yoghurt with fresh apple pieces, as well as 2 individual pots of yoghurt. Three mini boxes of cereal, 500ml tetra pack of milk (unopened), 2 boiled eggs, 3 pots of jam, 2 crossiants, half a loaf of fresh bread, 2 packs of meat (approx 5 slices in each pack) and approx 3 kilos of cheese (2 kinds). Every table was served the same amount of food. We felt embarrassed about leaving so much untouched.
