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 little chalet with two double bedrooms and en suite bathrooms. Old wooden beams were used in construction which gives the place an authentic feel! Great living area with A/V system for movie nights, and stunning views of the Matterhorn above. Lots of balconies, nice for morning hangouts. Thank you Daniela.

Verified reviewSet up is neat, nice rooms, great view of matterhorn. Two very nice restaurants nearby. Quiet. Relaxing. Well stocked with cooking supplies. Jacuzzi bath is wonderful. Chalet is close and convenient to furi gondola. The owner is wonderful and very responsive.
Chalet is very warm during the day. The basement bedroom stays cool. The chalet is a 20 minute walk from downtown with uphill going to the chalet. There is usually a bus to help with the transport but that was not available when we were there.

Verified reviewThe chalet is wonderful, well equipped and has a cosy vibe. The host is fantastic, her response to everything I ask about was almost immediate.
The location was a bit far from train station but the host was very kind to provide bus timetable and helped to book of taxi for our departure. This helped a lot.

Verified reviewExceptional location with great views. The chalet was extremely comfortable and allowed enough space for our family to spread out during our down time.
Nothing. The property met all of our expectations and we enjoyed all the facilities.

Verified reviewWaking up to views of the Matterhorn everyday. Daniela, our host, was also very warm, helpful and prompt in addressing our queries.
Everything was great! PS: Apartment is over 4 floors so for those who with mobility issues, it could be somewhat challenging.

Verified reviewEverything about this property was incredible. Well equipped for long stays and the host (Daniela) was on hand for anything further that was needed. It’s location has to be seen to be believed. Overlooking the Matterhorn never got boring. This stay is truly incredible.
No issues at all.
