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 reviewWe would highly recommend this hotel and restaurant. This hotel was located in an exceptionally beautiful and tranquil setting (we were there in the Summer). You are in the countryside and the views of the Swiss countryside and the Appenzeller Alps were outstanding. The room (#8) was exceptionally large and nice (windows on both east and south sides - a corner room). We ate at the restaurant and the food was excellent (but you had to ignore the health food slant of the menu because the actual dishes were excellent).
Without taking away from every other aspect to our stay (which was excellent!) the only minor complaint was the design of the bathroom. Small compact bathrooms are quite common in Europe, but this one was particularly difficult. We are older, and we needed to be gymnasts to sit down on the toilet. If remodeled, this bathroom deserves some better re-designing. Another very small quibble - the bed needed a bedside table (one side of the bed was the door to the bathroom and no bedside table would have worked, but the other side had room for a bedside table)

Verified reviewI didn't realize this when booking this property, but apparently some sort of 'Appenzell card' (don't know the actual name) was included. You could take several cable cars for free, enter certain museums for free, get discounts on the bus etc. Saved me at least 50€ ...
The breakfast was pretty decent, but I missed bacon and scrambled eggs. :-)

Verified reviewRoom was nice and modern. Hot water and water pressure in the shower were good. There is a restaurant on the premises, as well as a very good restaurant at the hotel next door. Check in was easy, just be aware that the staff takes Wed and Thurs off, so no one will be there to check you in (you receive an email and they provide you with a code you punch in to open the door and get your key, super easy). It's a 3 min walk from the nearest train station. Views of the rolling hills are fantastic
We only stayed one night, so I can't say we were unhappy with anything really, but here are some things to be aware of. The walk from the train station is only 3 min, but it's an uphill walk the whole way, so be mindful if you have a lot of luggage. Also, regarding the train station, even though the address of the hotel in in Weisbad, that isn't the correct train stop. The correct stop is the Shwende stop, but that stop isn't a scheduled stop on the train, you have to request the stop (push a button like on a bus) after the Weisbad stop. The same applies is you are returning back from the Wausserauen stop in the opposite direction. Also when you are leaving from the Shwende station, you have to push a button on a kiosk to request for the train to stop there otherwise it'll just roll right past you and you have to wait another 30 min. None of this is difficult or a reason not to stay here, but it will save you time and annoyance if you know this ahead of time. Also, there isn't much that is written in English there, so it's handy to have Google translate ready with the German packet downloaded so it can translate the text on pictures you take. Front desk staff speaks English, but we went on a Wed so they weren't around (they take Wed and Thurs off). Also be aware that on days they are there it seems the latest someone is there to check you in is at 7pm, so plan travel accordingly. None of these things I mentioned are reasons not to stay here, it was a very pleasant stay and I'd be happy to stay there again.
Dear Mr. Guy Thank you so much for your detailed and kind review. We're delighted that you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the comfort of the room, the easy check-in process, and the beautiful surroundings of Schwende. You're absolutely right – our hotel is just a few minutes from the train station, but the uphill walk and the request-stop nature of Schwende station can surprise some travelers. Your helpful tips will surely benefit future guests. We're happy to hear you would stay with us again and would love to welcome you back anytime! Silvie Inauen
