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 reviewVey friendly staff, and an excellent meal in a lovely restuarant, with Euro 24 match on TV addining to the atmosphere. Garage to store our bikes securely overnight.
It's a 2.5km climb out of Brig if you're travelling by bike. With 200 metres of ascent.

Verified reviewA lovely and welcoming place to stay. We arrived by bike, in the pouring rain, and the host couldn't have been more helpful. A place to store our bikes, a table for dinner, and going off-menu to make sure the vegan in the party was catered for. Rooms were comfortable, food was good, breakfast was substantial, and the host gave us some good route tips for our ride up the Simplon Pass.

Verified reviewComfy room with beautiful mountain views. What made this stay great was the friendliness and hospitality of the owners! Always made sure we were looked after and helped us find information about the town and where to go, even gave a us a lift into town. The restaurant downstairs was great too. We weren't sure if there would be many vegetarian options as we couldnt read the German menu but the owner translated for us and both our meals were delicious

Verified reviewNothing. I didn’t get to stay there.
They were closed. Lights out refused to open the front door. When we finally got them on the phone they confirmed they were closed, but refused to cancel or refund our stay. They insisted that we had to do that via booking.com. Then when booking.com called them they lied and said they were open. The booking.com representative left us in -7 centigrade by the side of the road for 40 min in the dark and never called us back.

Verified reviewPerfect staff. The gentleman was welcoming, engaging and 'chauffeured' me through the check-in process from hello to the room door. There seemed in him a passion and interest to hone his hospitality skills to perfection. A small shed behind the building was especially made available for the safe and dry storage of my bike. The room was small but sufficient with a terrace door leading directly onto a sprawling roof top lounge with stunning mountain views. Downstairs, an excellent restaurant.

Verified reviewNice location out of town, really friendly hosts who could speak French, great dinner and breakfast, comfortable bed
1. No window, only a door on to the terrace which I didn’t want to leave open all night (too cold/insecure). 2. Only one electricity socket I could find and no switch on bedside light - had to unplug it to switch it off Otherwise all good.

Verified reviewWe had a fantastic stay here. The hosts were incredible, so accommodating and made us feel so welcome. The location is about 10 mins out of the centre but so worth it, the views are phenomenal. The breakfast was amazing and we felt very at home. Couldn’t recommend this place more.
