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 reviewWe spent one night in Rifugio on a rather rainy and “fresh” day in July, we were welcomed by owners and when They saw us soaking wet They immediately made us hot tea.It was nice to hear beautiful Italian language and feel welcomed after spending some time in strict Switzerland. The rooms were super clean,cozy and the heating was working perfectly.The view from our 3 rooms was amazing,bathrooms were spacious and brand new. The wooden interior was cool and just the vibe in this place is unforgettable. We also ate dinner- parmigiana and nonna cake was delicious.We recommend this place to experience nature,fresh air and good people.

Verified reviewThe staff were extremely polite and kind. The location and views were great
Extra costs led to a hostel being just as expensive as a low cost hotel that would have been slightly better equipped.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you appreciated the kindness of our staff, as well as the location and the view. We’re sorry you felt the costs were higher than expected: the additional charges you mentioned refer to dinner for three people and breakfast — optional services that many of our guests choose specifically for the quality and experience we offer. We’d also like to point out that the overnight stay itself remains competitively priced for the area, and that our place – while simple – offers a kind of hospitality that’s different from standard low-cost hotels: more personal, more immersive, more authentic.

Verified reviewI stayed at the Rifugio Teggiate for just one night as a stopover on the way to a mountain climb. The Rifugio is located in a meticulously renovated historic Casa Cantoniera, right on the road up to Passo Spluga. The building may look somewhat rough on the outside, but is certainly is comfortable inside. All rooms are carefully renovated, maintaining the original wood panels and natural stones, while ensuring modern comfort. The team is very friendly, everything is very clean, there is a good Italian breakfast in the morning and free parking in front of the building. Happy to come back!
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words! We’re truly happy that you captured the spirit of Rifugio Teggiate – a place that welcomes travelers with simplicity and care, preserving the history of the old Casa Cantoniera without giving up modern comfort. We’re glad your stay, even if short, was enjoyable and that you appreciated the breakfast, the atmosphere, and our daily efforts. We look forward to welcoming you back for your next mountain adventure!

Verified reviewPerfect location, on the Splügenpass. Very quiet at night. The staff is very, very friendly. The food is very tasty and fast. The rooms are nice and the bed was perfect.
The portions of food are relatively small, but as they are able to serve fast, a second portion was easily ordered.
Thank you for your lovely words — we're so glad you enjoyed the peace, the food, and the company! And happy you found the second portion solution: we’re always here to make sure no one leaves the table hungry. Hope to see you again up here on the Splügenpass!

Verified reviewThe refuge is quite basic (hence the affordable price) but everything was done very well. Although the room is very simple, it is pleasant, clean and comfortable. Staff were very friendly.
Grazie! A presto!
