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 reviewThe room was nice, new and modern, the bed very comfortable. It was well equipped. We missed the freezer in the refrigerator, as during roadtrips we use ice packs to keep our food cool. The room was fancy, also the Japanese toilette in the bathroom, however, there were no place to pack our clothes and towels, not a hook, or a small shelf. So maybe less fancy and more functionality would be good. Otherwise it's probably a Chineese hotel for Asian guests, with all of it's pros and cons.
We had several problems with the hotel. They had a security accident, and I was constantly harassed on WhatsApp to confirm my payment again. Even on our last evening there (I blocked the number several times). It happened on the 8th August, I also wrote to the hotel who confirmed not to do anything. On 28th August I got an info mail and apology from the hotel about the security issue, but they wrote it happened on the 20th August, which is simply not true. Beside that the room was hot but if you open the window it is extrem loud, and we couldn't sleep much. The check-in and check-out also didn't work, we had to wait a lot because there were some other guests who had problems too. Check-out didn't work at all, we had to call, which is not cheap there. The parking is also tricky. You can get a place if you are there early enough, but the places are rather for smaller cars. We won't book it again.

Breakfast. Nothing wrong with it. It’s just typical continental (19 chf), and I prefer more variety in the options

Verified reviewThis place was absolutely brilliant! We had a large double bed that was very comfortable. We had a gorgeous view on the front of the property over looking the church & mountains. The sound proof windows were exceptional, meaning we heard nothing from the street or church bells, enabling a fantastic nights sleep. The bathroom was exceptionally clean and functional, with a toilet that had many features too! The waterfall shower enabled us to start our day fresh. The restaurant downstairs offered brilliant drinks and meals, adding to the convenience of our stay. The parking round the back was also great to have. A great stay and only gutted we didn’t stay longer! We will be back!

Verified reviewThe room was huge and spacious, with a kitchen and even a large bathtub. There’s a nice playroom for kids, a short drive to Lucerne, and a supermarket right under the hotel. Although there’s no one at the reception, phone availability is excellent.
There is a church across the street with bells that ring early in the morning, which can be disturbing. Parking spots are very limited compared to the number of rooms, and in the evening there’s often no space available. It’s a pity that breakfast is not included in the price.
Dear Eli Grinberg, Your detailed review paints a vivid picture of your stay at the BERG & BERG Hotel. We're thrilled to hear that our spacious room, kitchen facilities and our children's playroom met your expectations. Our location within easy reach of Lucerne and the convenience of the on-site supermarket are indeed appreciated by many of our guests. We also value our guests' privacy and therefore maintain phone availability to address any immediate needs. We acknowledge your feedback regarding the church bells and the parking situation. We are constantly exploring ways to enhance our guests' experience and your comments certainly contribute to that effort. Lastly, we understand your sentiments about breakfast. We strive to offer competitive rates and sometimes that means certain amenities might not be included. Many thanks and warm greetings from Kerns Your team from the BERG & BERG Hotel

Verified reviewAll is done through the mobile from booking to checking in to checking out. It was efficient, it is a very modern hotel, on our arrival we had a problem with not having enough beds, we had to ring for assistance as no one was at the hotel but we got extra bedrooms for all our family to have their own beds. The lady on the phone was very helpful and friendly. We had a superior bedroom with kitchen and 2 of our other children had their own rooms. Some rooms come with balcony. Each bedroom have got their own bathroom fully equipped ( the modern toilet with remote control was a big hit), each room has got a coffee machine, slippers offered and dressing gown. I would recommend Berg&Berg hotel and use it again in the future. Available breakfast downstairs, restaurant and baby play area with nanny to look after your children. Sounds unbelievable? But yes this is all offered.
Dear Steve, Your detailed observations about our hotel are truly appreciated. We're thrilled to learn that you enjoyed the modern amenities, the efficient mobile-based system, and the extra bedrooms provided.

Verified reviewThe decor and space of the apartment was lovely - really nicely designed- would be nice if they had a full length mirror somewhere and there are only 3 seats for the table and this place houses up to 4, so we moved one of the arm chairs.
The pillows are awful so we didn't sleep well and the church bell!! The church bell drove us nuts and was ringing not only on the hour but at other random times- its ridiculous as it rang for ages each time - I must admit, I couldn't wait to leave and it really affected our stay - we all felt the same- even the kids. The apartment is warm but you try to drown the noise out by keeping the windows shut (doesn't work well but better than having windows open!) - there are fans, but it isn't great. Sorry!! Such a shame - you almost have to take the building and move it away from the church,

Verified reviewLovely comfortable rooms. Excellent quality facilities. A little luxury. In a nice village with a shop right next door and a restaurant/bar attached. Games room was enjoyed by the kids. A few complimentary tokens were recieved which was a nice bonus.
Our room wasn't quite equipped for 4 people (only 3 dining chairs, only 3 coffee cups etc.). Admittedly we didn't raise this though as we were only there for 2 nights so they may have rectified this if we had.

Verified reviewLovely, modern apartment in a newly refurbished building in the middle of a quiet village. Quality furniture and a huge comfortable bed. Slept very well from day one which is rare. High standard overall. Two balconies in our apartment. Coop next door which was very convenient. Check in efficient, although it didn’t feel this way initially, until I realised that I needed to check in online via link from email received straight after booking. You can open door using your phone or physical card (didn’t work for some reason). Would definitely go back.
Nothing major really… Parking at the hotel is limited. Sometimes we struggled to find space when we returned at the end of the day. However there is a public car park right next to the hotel for “max 3 hours a day”, but no payment machine and none seemed to be checking so we parked there overnight on a few occasions. Other small things like door card not working or empty shower gel/shampoo dispenser, but we use own products anyway. Fancy coffee machine but not enough coffee pods (unless you request daily clean, but we didn’t want to bother the cleaning lady). Couldn’t get same pods from the local Coop or even large Migros in Lucerne, until we found a solution by using Coop own brand 44mm coffee pods in a used, empty aluminium pod shell. It worked perfectly fine.
Dear Anna, Your detailed review is much appreciated. We are pleased to hear that you found our modern apartments, quality furniture, and large comfortable beds to your liking. We're also glad to hear that the check-in process and online door opening system were convenient once familiar. Your feedback about the parking and other minor issues have been noted.
