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 reviewGreat location and really nice hotel
It’s not amazing… but it is good. For the price I would probably expect more, but crans Montana is an expensive place!
Hi, thank you for your evaluation. Hope to welcome you again... Regarding the price, Switzerland is expensive we pay our staff more than 8X than in europe. That explain the prices.

Verified reviewLocation was fine. Nice breakfast room and spa but didn't use either
outdated, old, scratchy sheets, thin walls, bed too close to the door (layout super weird), staff seemed clueless and we'd asked for a taxi pick up which never arrived
Hi, sorry you didn't like the layout of our room, it is so since 1929, yes, an old building but renovated every year. We just made 1.2mio investment for your comfort. Hope you'll see it.

Verified reviewLeo at reception desk was very professional and helpful.
We have stayed here a few times and used to like this hotel but the cost cutting across all areas of the hotel that is really showing. Spa has too many guests from outside the hotel who can be loud and messy. Restaurant is closed. Bar is not staffed.
Hi, sorry you think we cut costs. We just invest 1.2 million in the building for your comfort. When you renovate a building it is always complicated an we cannot be sure of when it is finished and the services are sometimes difficult to organise. The restaurant is closed until december 15th because of that. We hope to welcome you again anyway.

Verified reviewLocation in the middle of Crans-Montana, lovely view from breakfast and spa area. Grass and beach baskets, nicely sized pool, quite late late checkout. We were coming for a Caprices Festival, so relaxing next day was super nice.
Dear Filip, Thank you very much for your kind review and for choosing to stay with us during the Caprices Festival! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the central location, the views from our breakfast and spa areas, and the relaxing atmosphere of our garden and pool. It’s great to know that our late checkout allowed you to fully unwind after the festivities. We hope to welcome you back soon for another memorable stay in Crans-Montana! Warm regards, Anaïs G. Guest Agent

Verified reviewI stayed in a room that was in desperate need of a complete renovation. The walls were dirty and cracked, the doors and frames were chipped and peeling, and the floor was scratched and uneven. The bathroom looked nothing like the photos shown in the hotel presentation — in reality, it was outdated and seemed to be at least 20 years old. One of the towels I received was literally black with dirt. The water pressure in the bathroom was so low that it was impossible to take a proper shower. On top of that, the sound insulation was practically nonexistent — I could hear every step and noise coming from the neighboring rooms and ceiling. Given the price I paid, I absolutely do not recommend this place.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are truly sorry that your room did not meet your expectations and that several aspects of your stay were disappointing. Your feedback is important to us as it helps us identify areas for improvement. Please know that we are currently in the process of renovating some of our rooms, as well as the exterior of the hotel, to enhance our guests’ comfort. We also take your comments regarding the maintenance and quality of the bathroom very seriously, and we will ensure this matter is addressed. Regarding the soundproofing, we understand how it impacted your comfort, and we will continue to work on solutions to improve the guest experience. We hope you will give us another opportunity to provide you with a more enjoyable stay. Kind regards, Team Art de Vivre

Verified reviewGood location, comfortable bed and great views from the room
The SPA and Wellness center is awful. Coming to the hotel after ski was the biggest disappointment to find out that the pool is cold and my daughter (5 yo) couldn’t use any of the amenities. The jacuzzi is outside and it’s small. It was full of outside people, not hotel guests, mostly man who were washing themselves on the showers naked and there was a strong smell of cannabis in the whole SPA area. Definitely not a kids friendly zone!!! Also, I have paid for 2 adultes and a child room rate, and in my reservation was written that child stays for free. At check out I was forced to pay additional CHF 80 for the child's bed, which I had never requested, because my daughter sleeps with us. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS TO THIS HOTEL!!!!

Verified reviewFacilities were great, amazing infrastructure. Jacuzzi could be a biiit warmer but overall sauna, pool and jacuzzi were amazing! Room has a lot of space which I really appreciated. Breakfast was also impeccable, I miss it already!
The mattress had a memory foam pillow top that I really really dislike, as it’s super bad for my back (I have a hernia and memory foam mattresses make it worse) but I understand it’s something a lot of guests appreciate. So it’s not a negative review, just a comment haha
hi, thank your for your comment. Regarding the pillow, just tell us, we have pelnty different pillows styles. Hope to welcome you another time.
