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...).

NetherlandsThe location is charming with nice lake and mountain view. The restaurant itself is on lake side which gives great view while you are eating and another plus point is the kids play area. The food was decent with fresh ingredients. Unfortunately the breakfast was somewhat limited in choice. The staffs were friendly and helpful.

United KingdomThe room we stayed in (superior double, no balcony on second floor) had no stand up shower, only a bath so this was a little awkward to use. The location of the room also meant that the noise from floor above, including guests walking around on creaky floor boards and their muffled conversations were audible. However, as we stated only for one night this wasn’t too much of an issue.
The location of the property and grounds was quiet and had stunning mountain and lake views from the bedroom, restaurants and gardens. Staff were all very polite, pleasant and super helpful.

The location was top notch. We had booked the Superior room with a balcony,the view was mesmerising. The staff is helpful.

OmanThe best thing about this hotel was the hot top and the view only.. staff were nice but not helpful at all.. we requested to change the room 3 times and each day they give us different excuses! Cleaning service only make up the bed and changes the garbage, non of the towels nor the slippers or linen were changes as we stayed for 3 nights! The breakfast was very limited and restaurant staff not professional at all, we so them treating other guests in un-polite way.. i will give my overall experience in the hotel 6/10 only because of the view.. we expected it to be like a real hotel..
The view and the hot top..

TurkeyUpstairs is made by wooden it’s nice for atmosphere but also you will hear all steps because of it but i just used upstairs for sleeping so that’s not that much important. enterance floor base is really cold in winter time, you can’t walk without shoe or slipper.
Hotel location is good. Hotel employees really kind and helping a lot to make you happy as much as they can. It has so good view especially from breakfast room. Rooms are hot enough and it has own kitchen with all necessary basic equipments, you don’t have to search for restaurant. It’s cleaned well. I felt comfort and peaceful with perfect nature of country.

United Kingdomthe location is a little far from most places, but it’s to be expected and it’s still a nice and quiet place
the breakfast scrambled eggs was good, and also had a good view most of the time. Might be better to go during summer or spring for a better view as the fog covers the lake during winter time.

IsraelThe breakfast was a bit disappointing, it was exactly the same every day, no variations.. On some mornings they ran out of eggs and croissants. Could use more local cheese and handmade jam... Just a suggestion. Another thing please don't do gardening maintenance early in the morning with noisy machinery. Overall 9/10
We absolutely loved our Alpen bedroom with the beautiful view to the lake and linden trees. Brienz is a beautiful small town with lots of gems around to see. The hotel all around is very picturesque and beautiful as you would except in this region. We enjoyed our stay very much
