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...).

SwitzerlandRight from the start, after checking in, we were struck by the strong smell of sulphur from the lift to floors 5 and 6. We arrived in the room, surprise, the bathroom in the room did not look at all like in the pictures, even more, it was extremely dirty. The container for liquid soap next to the sink was empty and squeezed (probably by the guest before us), and the container for shower gel, also empty. In the morning we open the window, and surprise, an indescribable mess, see attached pictures. For a hotel claiming to be 4 stars and charging over 200 CHF/night, it's shameful. Our luck was that we only had to stay a few hours in it. It is the worst experience we have had so far at a hotel.
The bed was comfortable.

United StatesOur shower made a puddle on the bathroom floor, which is no big deal but probably a pain in the butt for some folks. We didn't mind, although our towels were soaking wet after mopping the floor after each use. The only other disappointment was the steam bath being out of commission, which we had looked forward to after a gruelling work trip and stay in an absolutely terrible hotel the night before we arrived.
Our room was incredibly comfortable and spacious. We loved the beds, and we were blown away at the breakfast, which we had three mornings in a row because it was absolutely delicious. Favorite breakfast at a hotel by a long mile. We loved the atmosphere of the hotel, the staff were incredibly gracious and helpful, and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. We spent the previous night in a terrible hotel situation and needed a little bit of luxury and comfort to make up for it, which we certainly found. The location of the hotel was excellent and allowed us to eat out regularly at fantastic spots nearby and see many museums as well, all on foot. We had so much to see in such close proximity we largely didn't use transit even though we had free passes from the hotel, a huge benefit!

United KingdomWe requested two rooms close together and booked over 4 months in advance but we couldn't have been further apart, not on the same floor and the rooms were not even accessible by the same bank of lifts. Also, everything was very expensive, this maybe more of a reflection of Switzerland rather than just the hotel but 32 swiss francs for breakfast and 30 for parking seems a rip off to me.
Great location, just outside the town centre. Good facilities.

United KingdomIf I'm pushed to say something it would be that there was some kind of issue with the TV which restricted the channels available. But this was a very minor blip.
Great location with a short walk to either the centre or train station. The large room was really clean, with a comfortable bed. All the reception staff we dealt with were really friendly, smiling and helpful, which we really appreciate. And they provided an extra fan during a period of excessive heat in the city! They were happy to organise taxis, print tickets for a tour etc. The pool was a delight in the heat and was a good size, with a lane for swimming lengths (also a sauna which we didn't use). All very clean. Towels etc were available from gym staff at the entrance. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

NetherlandsTwo complaints: 1) poor service 2) other price than advertized 1) After booking I contacted the hotel and was promised a baby cot would be ready for us. Long story short: We had to wait 2,5 hours after arrival for this to finally be arranged. Subsequently, the waiter showed no interest in taking our order, having us wait for another 45 minutes despite only one other table occupied. Price/quality of food was terrible. 2) When booking this accommodation, it was advertized our child would stay free. However, on the invoice our 8 months old son was charged 77,70 CHF for room and breakfast. After pointing this out I received a new invoice with the same total price but with specifications removed. Despite several attempts to clarify and have this issue corrected, I encountered a lack of interest, false information, and refusal to offer customer service.
Reception staff was polite. Central location. Excellent breakfast.

United KingdomThey have charged me twice. I paid in advance, in full, via booking.com in April 2023 for an overnight stay in August 2023. On check in they requested 100 euro deposit on my credit card for “cover” against additional expenses. On check-out, after I had left the hotel, they charged me again in full. I have paid twice. Despite 7 phone calls (the last on international for 40 minutes) and an e-mail and several promises from staff that they would sort it out immediately, 4 days later I have still not been reimbursed and the woman in the complaints department has said it will be another 3-5 days before the hotel “gets in touch”. Nice room but be very careful about how you share your credit card details with this lot!
Good location, nice pool, excellent breakfast, parking under the hotel easy to get to. Clean, comfortable, quiet room.

However, after the worst night sleep we had had on our trip and food poisoning, they sent someone up to our room to check and low and behold… both were not functioning.
Good location, friendly staff (Ali was exceptional), cold drinks as you enter, breakfast was lovely and free Basel City pass for the duration of the stay was a great addition.

SwitzerlandThe online self-check-in system doesn't really work. "Something went wrong". Had a similar experience with the onsite self-check-in - we couldn't save the data. No problem - we checked in at a clerk at the counter.
The bed was surprisingly large and comfortable. Exceptionally rich and tasty breakfast with everything we could imagine. This was indeed a highlight for us. The central location with the Basel Card was important for us: we used public transport in and outside the city. The tram stop is located just in front of the entrance, the railways station is very near with a direct bus connection to the airport.
