How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewLocation fantastic. lots of restaurants and bar on the lakefront near hotel. Room with balcony was charming.
noisy outside only if the windows are open, which we had done as we had a balcony and wanted to sit at our little table. It is as expected to be on the lively lakefront with restaurants.

Verified reviewGreat view of the lake from 2nd floor room. Great location. Super breakfast. Quiet. Air conditioning. Close to bus stop, Coop, boat terminal. Relaxing stay, with opportunity for interesting nearby excursions.
Instructions for how to get to off-site hotel parking were confusing. Parking spaces were very close together, though typical of Swiss parking lots in general. Weather in early July was generally very hot during the day.

Verified reviewDecent breakfast and beautiful view. People were welcoming.
Not enough isolation between the bathroom and the rest of the room. But this is a minor thing, overall very satisfying.

Verified reviewI really appreciated how clean the room was. The bed was comfortable, and the shower head facilitated a wonderful shower experience. But I most thrilled by the fact that the breakfast buffet and restaurant offered gluten-free options - sometimes those are exceedingly hard to find.
I was at first a little disappointed at the small size of the room, given that the images of the room I thought I booked were of a much larger room. But it ended up being ok because the view made up for it all.

Verified reviewMy room had windows on 2 sides overlooking the lake and the promenade. It had a small balcony with a table and 2 small chairs overlooking the lake and the mountains. The room was spacious and the bed very comfortable. It was on the first floor directly above a restaurant terrace at the 'busy' end of the promenade very close to the charming small streets of Ascona. I enjoyed hearing the hustle and bustle outside during the evening and it was quiet at night. The reception staff were welcoming and helpful and there was a choice of juices/bread/croissant/meat/cheese and eggs for breakfast. I would definitely stay here again.
