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):
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.
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.).

Amazing view of Lake Brienz, close enough to walk to town, parking and nice grounds. The breakfast included was good.

AustriaThe room layout makes no sense at all. Why would I want people from one room with separate beds to be able to come out and enter main bedroom attached to kitchen? --> Nightmare! Also, the lake is at least 15 mins. walking distance away so if you thought you are right on water...you're not. Finally, I'm sad we left a bottle of good wine behind but hopefully someone enjoys it and thinks of us! :D
The front desk people were so kind a friendly. I will say there are a lot of instructions they gave at beginning so maybe for people on vacation just a list of top 10 highlights they need to know? I like that it has this cool lakeside feel.

Philippines- You have to book an uber to get up to the hotel or call their shuttle service for assistance (check-in & check-out only). Otherwise, you’ll gonna have to hike your way up which is pretty tiring and takes around 10-20 mins. - Breakfast is pretty plain and bland, not much variety but it can do
• Beautiful view of Lake Brienz • Rooms are cozy and clean • Near the station • Near grocery and souvenir shops • Several restaurants in the area

Switzerlandthe SPA is only composed of two sauna and a hamam but in my opinion, there should be at least something to bath in, a swimming pool, a hot tub or something like that.

United StatesThis place is strange. Some of the areas are super dated and need ungraded, like the pool entry. I was appalled by the first room they tried to give me. It was hideous, pink, weird metal bed frame and netting. When I asked them for another room I was rudely asked, did I ask for a specific room when I booked? Lady, I paid almost $400 for this room, it better be nice. So, she switched me as the only other free room had yet to check it, sorry for them. Some areas in the room where not cleaned at all— the balcony had not been refreshed I found someone’s used contact lens on the chair, floor and one of the chairs was broken. When I brought this up to them upon check out they seemed completely unfazed. I cannot believe they also held a 200 franc deposit! The wallpaper also had some stickers peeled off. Absurd. The restaurant only has 2 people working and dinner, so don’t expect much for service.
Beautiful scenery and lake view

The view from our bedroom was the money maker for us! We spent so long enjoying the beautiful view of lake brienz. The grounds of the hotel are well kept and lush. Walking distance to train station and lake with plenty of parking on site which was convenient.

India- Restaurant time is limited. - Gas stove did not work - Approach is difficult by foot - Difficult option for family with small kid - Needed more light. Room was bit dark with the number of lights and their intensities. Needed one fan in the smaller room
- The view was excellent - Room size - Kitchen was fully equipped with utensils - The staff were very good - Very good choice if you want to have a leisurely stay, or want to visit other places and come back at night for a relaxing sleep. Does not have a lot of options nearby in easily accessible and walking distance.

PakistanIt was too hot here during the day in June 25 and there was just one small standing fan which was not enough for the couple. Secondly no elevator and it was difficult for us to climb stairs to the 3rd floor and also hard to bring up and down the luggage without an elevator. Thirdly no intercom was available at room for each and every query you have to go yo the reception without an elevator, fourthly when you open the windows for ventilation the flies came inside the room and was annoying,
Location was excellent but it is on top of the mountain and you have to have enough stamina to walk down and up during your stay. Good scenery and greenery all over.. breakfast was exceptionally good,. Coffee and tea arrangement at room
