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...).

IndonesiaThe room was really nice but the soap dispenser inside the shower cubicle was totally empty the 2 nights I stayed there. I drank a cup of tea & the used cup, glasses, spoon & the tea bag were not replaced the 2nd day. Also the power outlets that guests could use were below the desk; therefore, all charged items had to be put on the floor. A bit inconvenience. Breakfast was standard with an egg station. Traveling using the train, the hotel location was excellent, the continuation of platform 1 at the train station.

SwitzerlandThe check in was made at 17.30 because was not ready (some trouble due sick personel), which can happen but... my room was not king size as booked but 2 sigle beds , after a claim the change was made immediately. Turn on the ligth was a nightmare. The room was noise due the train rail at 5 meters from the windows.

SwitzerlandThere was planned works on the train tracks which the hotel overlooks and we were only informed about on the day of our stay. We could hear the trains day and night over the area in works and construction through the night. Without that it would have been lovely.
Staff were friendly and helpful, and the room very comfortable. Central location.

United KingdomAlthough the room was clean overall, it was disappointing to find the previous occupant's half eaten supermarket salad and some of their other snacks in the mini fridge when I arrived. One of the light bulbs in one of the bedside lamps was not working. No plug sockets accessible from the bedside. One curtain seemed to be missing. Neither Safe was working properly (luckily, I hadn't put anything in them when I noticed this!) I was given a room with a balcony which you couldn't access because it was shuttered up with garden furniture against the balcony doors. Whilst I appreciate it's winter, it would have been nice to be able to go out on the balcony to enjoy the Lake views, but if this is seasonal, then it should be made clear on booking that the balcony isn't accessible in winter. Quite a lot of noise from passing trains, which is to be expected as it's located at the train station, but they go on a lot later than might be expected. Unfortunately, it's a little disappointing that these small details weren't right given the price per night, as they let down what could be a very good modern hotel.
Very comfortable bed. Great location right on Platform 1 of Montreux Station and right in the town centre. Was able to store luggage and complete the check-in process early, which helped as I was short on time. Modern facilities and decor.

The location is excellent, the hotel is at the end of Platform 1 at the Railway Station. My room had a great view of the lake with a lovely balcony with 2 chairs and a table. The staff were very friendly both at reception and at breakfast

United KingdomI've never experienced worse pillows in all my travels. I don't think you could even call it a pillow, it was like a limp bit of material inside a pillow case. I took the pillow off the other bed but both together were still too flat and as a result I didn't sleep well for the duration of my stay. The hotel is situated at the top of a rather steep hill, it wasn't a problem for me but people with mobility issues might struggle.
Location was perfect for me. The hotel is literally at the end of the platform which was great for my early morning train. The staff were very helpful, they allowed me to leave my bag with them during the day until I could check in. The room was a good size, the shower was powerful.

United KingdomIt almost felt like residents were kept away from the main areas being encouraged to enter and leave the hotel by external routes, avoiding the communal areas and going only directly to and from rooms. There was no bar/social area (apart from the restaurant if you had booked a meal). The garden room (outdoor seating area) was locked. No plug socket near a mirror in the room. It was a lovely hotel but needed a few touches to make it feel more comfortable/less cold (cushions/throws perhaps).
The hotel is very new feeling. It is clean and functional. There is lovely Freddie Mercury memorabilia and artwork throughout the hotel. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Brilliant location and spectacular views of the mountains and lake.
