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 StatesI didn't like the steps leading up to the reception. I initially thought the elevator was on the ground level. It was difficult to maneuver large bags up the steps. The next morning, I found out there was a bucket entrance with only two steps. That made things easier.
The location. It was easy access to the Zurich HB train station 🚉. It's across the bridge and across the street. The bed was very comfortable. And the bathroom was large. The room was exceptionally clean. And very quiet 🤫.

United Kingdom- Curtain was thin and not "blackout", hence some streetlights were flooding into the room overnight.
- Check in was smooth at around 23:30 and the reception staff were very friendly. - Room was well furnished & clean and the bedding was of good quality. - Tea is available from a communal area. - Bathroom was good.

United StatesIf you're a light sleeper, you may notice an audible HVAC-type sound coming from roof area which was close to my 5th floor room. Not noticeable during the day but definitely at night. Maybe not all rooms are affected depending on location.
Historic but modern hotel located within walking distance of HB railway station and old town. The top-floor dormer room was cozy with a very comfortable bed, desk, good lighting, and a sitting bench. The bathroom had quality towels and soap amenities. The included breakfast was a selection of savory/sweet items and beverages. Staff members were friendly and efficient.

United KingdomNice hotel, clean and functional. Rooms are basic but nicely decorated, to include everything needed for a short stay. The location is perfect for easy access to the train station. The old town is also right behind it and all main city attractions are within a short walk. The restaurant on the ground floor is definitely recommended: nice atmosphere and good food, especially the desserts! Overall we had a good stay.

The best thing about hotel limmathof is the location near the main train station and right on beside the central tram stop. Not the most luxurious hotel, quiet basic , but clean and comfortable. Good value for money as hotels in Zurich are pretty expensive. We would definitely return to this hotel.
