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.).

Sara, the owner, was exceptionally welcoming and kind. The room was spacious, bathroom was clean and had great water pressure. I would definitely come back. The garden around the house is also great to relax in after a long hike.

No notes — everything was perfect!
Cuore Alpino is the perfect base to explore the beautiful Valle di Blenio. Easy to reach by public transport and a great starting point to go exploring in various directions. Sara is an incredible host who made the stay extra special: she's super kind, attentive, helpful, knowledgeable and clearly loves what she does. This is also reflected in the house: from the communal spaces to the rooms themselves you can tell a lot of love and care has gone into every detail, there's a lot of character as well as a very high standard of cleanliness. Breakfast is also delicious and locally sourced, and Sara adapted it for us being vegan. 100% recommended to anyone who's thinking about visiting the area, and we'll definitely choose to stay at Cuore Alpino next time we're there.

The breakfast is delicious and locally sourced, but very expensive.
Loved the themed rooms, the balcony, the living room, the staircase, the yard, it is a beautiful building and beautifully kept up. I wish we could have stayed longer in order to really relax and enjoy the hotel and the local.

- • Double or Twin Room with Bathroom

The only -but a major - problem were the church bells. Church bells in the morning are normal in Switzerland. But here it goes well too far. The pension's building stands next to the church tower, which rings diligently each half an hour - ALL NIGHT LONG. Windows provide good sound insulation, so probably in winter this is not a problem. However, in the hot summer period your have a choice: either suffer from suffocation, or open the windows for some fresh air - and not to sleep because of the bells. At 3 a.m. they ring 3 times, at 5 a.m. - 5 times... And at 6.30 a wake up call guaranteed - 110 times :) One of us is partially deaf - but it did not help either. If you want to stay here in summer, take care of some sort of good earplugs!
Very good location. 10 min. to the central bus stops, which provides connections to the endless hiking trails in the area, including the famous plateau Greina. Actually, all the clients at the time of our stay were hikers. Spacious room and the bathroom. Enough storage space in the room. Very clean. Sufficient free WiFi. Parking space in front of the house. Fantastic grounds belonging to the property, with trees providing enough shade even on the hot summer days. We spent a very relaxing day there between our challenging hikes. Excellent hosts. Sara is very strict about her house rules, but she and her husband made everything they can to make our stay comfortable - well beyond our expectations. Breakfast is paid separately. Not very exciting, but OK continental breakfast (meaning bread, cheese and jam). Homemade jam from the village was good and we were offered about 10 different sorts. No evening meal options, but a plenty of excellent restaurants in the vicinity.

For touring the Greina highlands this place is a must! The host was super friendly and allowed us to keep our luggage at the hotel, as well as our car parked there, as we stayed another night after we came back. We also recieved useful information about our hike. Service was excellent, and we felt very welcome. We would love to return someday.
