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 reviewClean, spacious room; comfortable bed
Rather cramped shower room. No tea or coffee facilities in the room, although the host did offer a drink on arrival.

Verified reviewI arrived there at 8:00 p.m. on a Saturday night and was very happy about the personal check-in (I was shown and explained everything in full detail by a member of the staff) and the fact that I could get a tasteful and hearty meal almost immediately although the restaurant was full. My room was spacious and well heated. The bed comfy, the duvet warm enough. I could have access to soft drinks and coffee around the clock. FREE.
The noise from the restaurant could be heard from the room but it died down around 10:00 - 11:00 p.m. The breakfast consisted only of cold items since it was self-service. Some ham and eggs would have been nice to start a chilly winter day with. But for 80.00 CHF / night I cannot really complain.
Thank you very much for your honest feedback. Due to our opening hours, breakfast is unfortunately only possible without hot food. Thank you for your understanding.

Verified reviewThe owner/Manager of the hotel went above and beyond in the restaurant for our evening meal accommodating our preferences and allergies. Very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very spacious and had very comfortable beds. They were very homely and clean. You need to notify the Hotelier in advance of your arrival if you wish to have breakfast provided at the hotel but we were unaware of this. It was not a problem as there is a wonderful bakery down the road where they also provide seating and a menu to eat onsite. We had a hire car so the fact that the hotel was a little off the beaten track in a village was not a problem for us - we enjoyed the peace and quiet and seeing the real Switzerland! Would definitely recommend and would be more than happy to visit Gasthof Lowen again!
As stated above, the Hotel needs advance notification if you require breakfast during your stay but it wasn't an issue as we had a lovely breakfast at the local bakery a few meters down the road.
Thanks a lot for your positive Feedback. We are glad to hear, that you enjoyed your stay. We would love to welcoming you soon again. Best regards Sabine
