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 reviewQuiet location in a cute park; 24h access with key card; friendly staff; bigger park and lake in walking distance
The bathroom for our room was ridiculously tiny and is not shown in any of the pictures. It is essentially the size of a small wardrobe. If you are even slightly on the larger side you probably won't fit.

Verified review+ Not expensive. + Good location (bus and tram stops close-by, and even a train station ~8mins away). + Nice staff.
- Not clean (spider webs + multiple spiders, dust, even saw a roach on my first minute of arrival). It is not a light regular dusting my room needed : you NEED to deep clean from time to time as well ... - Window wasn't closing fully. - Mattress was very soft.

Verified reviewWhat a beautiful, charming hotel. A real gem set in beautiful parklands. The room was very large with high ceilings and a separate shower and wc/sink. The beds and pillows were exceptionally comfortable Breakfast was straightforward and just what we needed to start the day. We were in Geneva in the extreme heat and it was wonderful to be able to sit out in the shade under the trees and gaze at the wonderful grounds All the team we met were very friendly and welcoming The rooms are relatively without frills but you know this when you book and it is exceptional value for money. It was a privilege to be able to stay in such a beautiful old house with a huge amount of character
There was nothing we didn’t like. We knew the hotel was fairly simple and we expected that, so value for money was excellent in the midst of such an expensive city.

Verified reviewThe Hotel is in a very quiet location, the grass lawn in front of the hotel is very spacious. The ultimate attraction for me was the sheer abundance of large majestic trees on the site of the hotel grounds. The whole surrounding area is very tranquil and peaceful making the hotel surrounds very relaxing and peaceful; just the perfect atmosphere for people who have been on the move and need time to unwind. Equally as surprising is the nearest public bus stop for a ride into town is on a main road only a 2 minutes walk from the front entrance of the hotel. It's simply the best of both worlds !
Not much. The price was expensive but all places in downtown Geneva were expensive due to a precision engineering conference/expo in the city at the time. It would be good to come here in more normal circumstances. If I stop at Geneva again, I'll be staying here for sure.

Verified reviewThe room was booked at the last minute and was 1 of 4 hotels available in the whole of Geneva. The welcome we received at 9pm from Carl was just what we needed. We were distressed about losing our original reservation at a different location. Carl was so kind and caring for us in that situation. Not only that, he realized how upset and stressed we were as we had suddenly ended up with no room and Geneva was completely booked out. Carl brought us a bottle of wine and a basket with fresh fruits which made us feel so welcome. Our room was fantastic and in the morning in daylight we realized that this hotel sits in an absolutely beautiful location with very easy access by bus to the city centre. We enjoyed our stay very much and were humbled by the kindness we received from Carl and on other days by the lady at reception.
