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 reviewGreat character-filled property, nestled in a very strategic part of Chamonix, for access to the main shops and restaurants, as well as close to the main station, the Montenvers station, the Luge / them park and the Olympic facilities. There’s even a bakery of good quality on the opposite side of the block the apartment is within - very convenient in the mornings! The parking included on site makes this property even more convenient. The apartment is very secure and was lovingly kept. Great scenery from the bedroom windows and the balcony. Very helpful and kind host too. Great communication with us via the app.
Nothing - we loved it!

Verified reviewVery well appointed apartment with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Liked the tea and coffee provided, plenty of dishwasher detergent. Comfortable beds.
We couldn't make the washing machine work. Host was going to have it checked after our stay. Host was very responsive on the problem.

Verified reviewProximity to the city center and comes with parking. Most restaurants are within walking distance. Convenient for buses/public transport as well for ski lift connections. Views from the house are amazing as well.
Unclear expectations for pet friendliness. We were charged 10 Euros/night for our small dog which didn't do anything in the apartment and no special dog specific arrangements were available either. On the other hand baby crib where a crib has to be brought and installed only costs 5 euros/night. Seemed unfair.
I have well noted your comment. Please, note that you were told about the over-cost concerning the dog from your booking. So, you were absolutely free to cancel your booking and choose another apartment with better conditions for you.

Verified reviewLocation was great and very central
The manager was the rudest I’ve ever had staying at any property around the world. She was abrasive and complained that I didn’t give her sufficient notice about when I was coming despite the property claiming to having a “24 hour front desk”. This is not true… there is just one very angry and rude woman that showed up to let me in and lecture me after I had been awake and traveling for 36 hours to see my daughter. Apparently, they send you an email you have to look out for apart from the instructions from booking.com which we followed. It’s a bizarre and poorly communicated process in the modern world where most of these things should be automated (I have short term rental properties myself, am a super host on Airbnb, and would never subject my guests to this treatment) When it was time to leave, she hovered over us watching my daughter move her bags out of the apartment and made several rude comments. While the property itself was adequate, this woman made the stay very unpleasant. I do not typically leave reviews, but she made us uncomfortable enough that I thought it was worth mentioning to other guests in case they wanted to avoid such an interaction.

Verified reviewGreat location and parking / facilities. Lovely useful items and little extras like hand soap and tissues etc left in this self catering property. Very spacious and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and would come back!
Good to have big sofa could have benefited from an extra arm chair and couple of 2nd pillows for the beds, but on the whole great set up!

Verified reviewVery spacious, clean and well equipped. Central location was perfect for walking.
It was very difficult to find when we first arrived. We mistakenly thought it was a house and the actual building wasn’t as well marked for travellers unfamiliar with the town. We walked in circles for a time. Once we found it though, it was fine
