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 reviewBeautifull place with lots of thing you do. Host will accomodatie a lot for his guests. A place with a unique vision.
I understand the host has a vision and rules for his place. The way he communicates them can be intimidating and make guests feel uneasy. .
Dear guests, . the staff with whom you were not satisfied, provided activities and equipment for you and your children free of charge and gladly. . Despite the fact that, despite clear information in advance in our offer, mailing, SMS and cancellation conditions for your stay, you brought a supply of alcohol and tried to consume it with us (which we do not offer or allow), we treated you lovingly and did not cancel of your stay with us, without compensation. . We believe it was an unpleasant feeling, sick to finish a beloved bottle of alcohol, but you knowingly caused the situation yourself. . We have made it possible for you to rent equipment and stay in the area for the whole day of departure, including preparing lunch for your whole family, long after check-out. . We have done our best for your whole family and everything we offer and enable in our presentations, and every month the range of equipment and services is expanding. . Ask your children how they liked it :-) When they fed the fish in the crystal pond every morning, they could swim with them. They played with our canine therapist Kiwi. During their children's games and sports activities, they met children of other nationalities with great enthusiasm and discovery. They could enjoy music therapy on medical musical instruments from different parts of the world. Also calm, quiet nights with happy dreams, in the bosom of nature and in a house made of pure, natural materials.. . And all this, in a safe and clean environment of Guesthouse Sněžník. . We return all the funds from the guests back to the area and it makes us and the guests happy. . We wish you a happy life journey and a conscious choice for your next stay, according to your real priorities. This will save you and the accommodation providers, who specialize their services and space for guests. . Thank you very much for supporting a unique project in Central Europe. . Jaroslav and Kiwi

Verified reviewIf you like to stay in a place that is clean, comfortable and with a great garden with closeness to the outdoors this is an amazing fit. I am on a road trip and my daughter has been talking about this place since we left (6 days ago) so will def pass on the way home. ;) Bathroom and kitchen are shared but in excellent shape and very clean. Would recommend to book the breakfast which was incredible.

Verified reviewThe house is lovely, and has everything you need. It is completely clean and feels like a home. The area is incredible, just a half hour walk to the top of the mountain with the most wonderful view! The garden is nice, Kiwi is the best dog and Jaroslav is so welcoming and makes the best breakfast. I absolutely loved my stay and I will definitely come back someday. Thank you Jaroslav.

Verified reviewNice house with big garden and sauna and good breakfast.
The owner has a lot of rules. To much, we had the feeling that big brother was watching us and that did not feel good, because you sleep in his house.
Dear guests from Holland. After your arrival and welcome, we took you and your dog for a short walk in the nearby forest so that you can easily orient yourself for his walks. We helped you with check-in, which you could easily do in advance from home. We went through the local map with you, the possibilities for trips in the near and far surroundings - on foot, by car and by bike, as well as recommended restaurants. We offered you a free rental of high-quality sleeping bags, with sanitary napkins, which you did not have with you during the booked stay in the Indian tent, because you did not read the information on booking.com or in the e-mail in advance and you did not have sleeping bags with you. We also offered you the exchange of an Indian tent for a room, with a small supplement of 10 euros per night per person. So you slept in one of Shakti's nicest rooms, overlooking the garden, on a beautiful double bed, with a new medical mattress with a special formulation for a healthy back and a restful sleep. You took advantage of our offer for an evening romance in an Indian tent, during which you consumed 25 kg of prepared dry wood - free of charge as a superior gift from us. We served you three rich breakfasts, always partially warm, at a time when you wished you could sleep longer. We have offered mountain bikes and electric bikes for your use, free of charge, as well as all the equipment for activities and sports that we have prepared for our guests, always in perfect condition for a great ride and a happy return. The second evening you used an amazing place for relaxation and health - wellness sauna wooden house, with a bio lake for cooling. You had at your disposal a fully equipped kitchen, even for preparing your own meals, approx. 20 types of loose teas from different parts of the world, soft drinks and beers of various types, a special edition of Colombian coffee beans, with a classic grinder and a French press - free of charge. You did not have the opportunity to enter a clean house in outdoor shoes, to consume alcohol with us, and your dog did not have access to the common kitchen and to use the toilet in the fenced garden where children play. We will not change this, not even in exchange for an even more favorable grade for the staff :-) Guests from Holland come to us often, even repeatedly, and we already have personal friendly relations with many of them. They will always remind us of what is new in your country, after 30 years since we last visited you. We wish you a happy journey in life and thank you very much for your visit and thus your contribution to a unique project in the north of Bohemia, in a landscape of deep healthy forests, lakes and sandstone rocks, with a clear head and an open heart.

Verified reviewWe came to the accommodation with a dog. We didn't read the rules too much, so the fault was also on our side because this is not a very suitable accommodation for dog walkers. Due to allergies, the dog cannot enter the kitchen and dining room, which is understandable, but if someone came alone with a dog, they would not have many options, for example, to cook or spend free time in the common areas. Fortunately, we set off on the hike at dawn and didn't return until after dark, so it didn't bother us much. The owner has every right to set the rules in the building, and if you decide to visit the place, you must fully respect them. We therefore recommend that you carefully read the accommodation rules and consider your choice sufficiently. A pleasant surprise was the hospitality of the owner himself, as his abundant supply of food provided us with a great breakfast before the trip. As a result, I would neither recommend nor recommend accommodation, as we all travel differently. However, I recommend that you carefully study the rules of the object, as this will avoid unpleasant misunderstandings.

Yes, we confirm that all guests feel comfortable with us - people and animals, it is necessary to ask for the possibility of staying with a dog before arrival, as stated in the info on booking.com: Animals: Pets are allowed on request, for a possible fee and accept the rules for their stay before arrival. In this way, we kept the possibility to visit us with the dog. Someone has their dog like their child, but after all, it's a difference, especially in a shared space. Anyone who has a dog that is at least somewhat independent can use the shared kitchen even without his presence in this space. We are glad that our guests have such an option - to prepare their own home-cooked meals, with great cost savings, especially for families with children, on a longer stay. This is no longer usual in accommodation facilities, and the guests are then dependent only on the food they buy, several times a day. Thank you for your kind visit, respecting the rules for staying with a dog and supporting the unique project Chaloupky Sněžník. We wish you a happy journey in life and see you again at any time, maybe even with the children when they come :-) Jaroslav and Kiwi

Verified reviewVery nice area, tons of free equipment + activities, big garden for kids to play, nice pool and wellness, some rules protected you as a guest (e.g. no alcohol, curfew at 2100), if you like eastern culture with esoteric music - you will love this
Emotionally draining due to strong ego of the host. Feeling of being constantly watched whether you follow the rules. Kids being threatened to be drawn in the pool by the host or their favourite toys being eaten by the dog, waiting for shared bathrooms and kitchen at peak times. Small rooms and little space for food if you want to cook. Children under age of 4 pay quite a lot (even our 3month old kid paid quite a bit).
You are making false statements and false accusations in your review. Please consider whether to insist on their continued publication. If so, we will ask for the support of another guest with children who were also with us at the same time during your stay, for the purposes of official proceedings and compensation. Our guests have the freedom of movement from check-in at 2 p.m. on the day of arrival until 10:30 a.m. on the day of departure, thanks to their original pin key, which is used to open the room and all exterior doors. We provide activities with children according to the offer and only on the basis of the parents' order and in their presence, in principle also as an opportunity to teach family team building (kayaks, archery, climbing and many other activities). Otherwise, parents are always responsible for their children and have them under their supervision. Our female Kiwi is a special breed with training for canis therapy for adults and children. He also accompanies guests on trips, without a guide, upon agreement with us. It is a great and safe companion for children from the youngest age, as can be seen from many guest reviews. We cater to families with children with the price - children under 4 years have a 50% discount, children under 17 years have a 25% discount. Wellness with cooling in the lake is free for children under 10 years old. There are rooms of different sizes on offer and there is a choice. Some are family type - two-story (Shiva, Shakti), some very spacious (Heart). It depends on the guest's choice, according to their photo and description, as well as the dimensions. The same place and services, for some the paradise they have been looking for for a long time, for others suffering.. the difference is what someone wants to experience, for a moment or for the whole life, in which emotion they feel better.. and also what they can't do without , not even for a moment. Traveling with a toddler isn't always easy, it's a test for parents, especially dads, but it's only for a while and it's worth it, enjoy the time. Your children also had many experiences with us in a large, limited and yet free space, meeting other children during activities - swimming in the organic pond with fish, eating strawberries and cherries, climbing park, musical and therapeutic instruments from different parts of the world, with explanations of how they are used to have the best effects on human health - physical and mental, scooters, archery, kayaks on Lake Ostrov, which we offer you they brought and prepared there for free. The weather worked out great for you all the time. We are happy that we can offer families with children to prepare their own meals and thus save considerable money on nearby and distant trips to the surrounding forests, rocks and lakes, as well as extend their stay, thanks to savings in the budget. Many accommodation facilities do not have such an option and only lead their guests to eat purchased ready-made meals. We were also happy to welcome your friend - a mountaineer, who came to visit you and offered him facilities and services as if he were a paying guest. Thank you for visiting us and supporting the project of a protected space free of alcohol, tobacco and addictive substances, for current and future generations. (As stated in our presentation offer on booking.com and website). We focus our offer on this type of guests who live in this style, or at least want to take a break from it for a while. We wish you a happy journey in life, we send greetings to Slovakia so that he can find an honorable path and goals again.

Verified reviewI really enjoyed the stay in this house as it has very special energy. It is very cozy and all the natural materials from which it is build and all the surroundings give you a moment of the getaway to the things it matters. At first I was little bit skeptical about sharing the bathroom with other guests but Jaroslav organized everything so well so it ended as no issue at all as everything is very clean. Also I highly recommend homemade breakfast! I appreciate all the explanation and the tips Jaroslav have prepared for his guests which saves you time and you are sure you will visit the best trails.
