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 reviewWow, what a view! I could easily stay in this hotel for a week and just sit on the balcony and enjoy the amazing view. Unreal. Breakfast was pretty good, especially once we discovered that you could request scrambled eggs and bacon. The staff was very friendly. Plenty of (free!) parking available.
The shower is atrocious. Not only do you have to stand in a bathtub, it's also so low that I couldn't even stand under the shower. I hated everything about it. Then there's some noise complaints: for example when your upstairs neighbors take a shower or flush the toilet that's very loud in the room. The beds weren't that comfortable and we really hated the provided pillows (one extremely thin, the other way too thick and hard), but luckily you can request a medium pillow which saved the final night. Breakfast has limited choice for lactose-intolerant people, and it's very weird that the note about being able to request scrambled eggs and bacon, isn't located at the actual buffet, but instead hidden in the back of some daily booklet on the table (with the weather and a joke of the day) that we never read. The room didn't have a mini fridge nor airco, and the hairdryer is extremely annoying to use: you can only turn it on for one minute and then you have to let it cool down before you can use it for another minute. Still, with all of this said, I would absolutely come here again, the view is that good.

Verified reviewWe took a short break at the Bernerhof Hotel in Kandersteg on the recommendation of a friend and we are so glad we did. The hotel is family-run and it is so relaxed and welcoming, and the food was amazing, thank you so much Claudia and Gerhard. The room was lovely and overlooked the meadow in front of the hotel. We took the cable car to Oeschinensee and another to Allmenalp. We also took the bus to the Nature Park at Blausee, and another to Frutigen to cross the Hohstalden Suspension Bridge. We took the train to Bern and also to Spiez, which is like being in the Mediterranean. A special mention for Roger at the Hotel Belvedere in Spiez who made our brief visit so special, with wine and cake on the balcony overlooking the lake; you are a true gentleman. Thank you
Everything you think you know about Switzerland is true. It is clean and beautiful and the skies are blue. We didn't want to leave!

Verified reviewThis hotel is in a good location for our purposes. The owners are so friendly and welcoming that we feel as if they have become our friends. We elected half board and loved our meals. They were amazing! We also enjoyed the afternoon tea and pastries they offered. My husband appreciated being able to read several of the books available to guests. We will definitely return here the next time we visit Kandersteg.
It was fairly warm while we were here, and we would have appreciated a lighter weight blanket for the bed, rather than the heavy comforter which was on it. This, however, may be our fault as we didn’t think to ask for a lighter weight option.

Verified reviewWe absolutely loved our one night stay! It was super clean and in a great location. The owners made us very welcome and served the best meals. We came in after many hours of traveling from the USA and the dinner we had reservations for was AMAZING! We would definitely stay here again if in this area. 100% recommend!
Nothing we didn't like...only wished we could have stayed longer.
