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 reviewOverall, the experience was positive. The mountain view, the renovated spa, and the incredibly skilled massage therapist really saved the situation! However, there were some significant drawbacks. There was a clear mismatch between price and quality. The rooms are outdated in style and very small. The reception staff were unfriendly and unprofessional. Everything took them an unreasonably long time to process. We had an issue with loud noise coming from the ventilation in our room, which made it impossible to sleep or relax. The management completely ignored our complaints at first. Only after two days of pressure did they start to respond! We asked to change rooms, but they didn’t have a room available in the same category and demanded an extra payment for the upgrade. That is outrageous and unacceptable, especially considering we had already endured two sleepless nights! Eventually, we were given a better room — but only after a lot of effort on our part. This left us with a very unpleasant aftertaste and disappointment from our stay. It’s disheartening and shows a lack of respect for hotel guests.
Dear Diana Thank you for your review. While we appreciate all feedback, we would like to clarify a few points and correct some inaccurate claims. The noise you experienced did not originate from our ventilation system, but from après-ski events at the neighboring hotel. This issue was investigated immediately and addressed directly with you. It affected your stay for one night only and was no longer a concern thereafter. Despite the negative in-room experience that one night, you chose to extend your stay with us. From this, we can reasonably assume that your overall experience at our property was at least satisfactory. In response to your concerns and your extended stay, we offered you a complimentary room change. Due to limited availability in your original category, we upgraded you free of charge—from our most basic category (Double Charme) to our highest (Junior Suite). From our perspective, the service and hospitality we provided differ greatly from the impression given in your review. We would like to emphasize that we take all guest concerns very seriously, but we also believe it is important to present a fair and accurate picture of the situation Best regards from Zermatt Your Schönegg Team

Rooms were too hot. We could not sleep at night. Staff called us at 11pm at night to pay local taxes. We had to wake up at 5am next morning. Taxes should be charged at the beginning of the stay. We also booked a taxi. It did not arrive.

Verified reviewThe branding is outstanding. Attention to detail. Interior design was very good. Breakfast was delicious.
The bathroom/shower needs better better steam extraction. The rooms gets extremely humid after one shower. Te dinner was a disappointment. Only the 4-course-menu is worth it (maybe). Most of the other dishes are not up to a restaurant of that level. And extremely over priced.
Dear guest, Thank you for your valuable feedback and for highlighting the aspects of your stay that you enjoyed, such as our branding, attention to detail, and interior design. We are especially pleased that you found our breakfast to be delicious. Regarding your comments about the bathroom, we appreciate your observation about the steam extraction, and we'll take it into consideration for future improvements. We’re also sorry to hear that your dinner experience didn’t fully meet your expectations. Our team strives to offer high-quality cuisine, and while our 4-course menu is often a guest favorite, we take your input about the other dishes seriously as we continually work to refine our offerings. We hope to welcome you again and exceed your expectations on all fronts. Warm regards, Your Schönegg Team
