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 liked that it had easy access to the mountain lift. The location was great. We had a van and parked it easily in the parking lot.
The lock on the door was old and a little hard to operate.

Verified reviewThe location can't be beat. Parkingn was $25 per night, but it was secure and just steps away from the hotel. The staff was incredibly welcomig and the facilities, although older, were well maintained. Coffee service in the mornig was a plus. After a long drive, the beautiful pool was heated and so inviting. We also had cocktails and appetizers just off of the pool at the outdoor bar seating.
I had read that over the summer construction was being done on the hotel, which was true and began at 9:00 a.m and continuted until 5:00 p.m. Unfortunately, this is just part of staying in a place like Vail where updates and construction need to be done during the off-season due to weather.

Old, no air conditioning, no real place to have breakfast
Thank you for your review—we’re glad to hear you enjoyed our great location and wonderful staff. As a traditional Bavarian ski lodge, our property does reflect an older style, and we do not offer air conditioning as our mountain climate typically provides cool evenings. We have a hot breakfast at Sarah’s Lounge, open daily 8-11am for a charge. Many guests also take advantage of the nearby cafés and bakeries just steps from our front door

Verified reviewThe location is perfect - right in the village near the restaurants, ski lift and the Ford Amphitheater. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. The outside area by the pool was a pleasant spot to enjoy a drink, have breakfast and relax.
There was no AC in the room and it was hot even with all windows open. Also, the room, especially the bathroom is very small.

Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad to hear that our location, staff, and your room had everything you needed. While our lodge does have an older, traditional style, we like to think it adds to the Bavarian ski lodge charm. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back again soon!

Verified reviewIncredible location. Old school Vail property with vintage hotel layout and design. Very nice staff. The restaurant and the adjacent gathering area were very nice to hang out at.
Very poor oor coffee quality. Staff was excellent but understaffed. It didn't seem like a manager was on duty during xheck-in (but again, the staff there was excellent) Patio was very dirty. Grounds in back had equipment scattered around but no employees present. Doors were difficult to operate. The restaurant and bar has friendly staff but the restaurant and bar could use a complete overhaul.

Verified reviewLocation is good
First room assigned had not been cleaned once we got into the room; towels everywhere, bed slept in, unmade. Switched to a “suite”, decorated before my grandparents apartment in Miami Beach in 1970, poor condition. Coffee maker broken after a lousy night sleep in a hot room.
We appreciate your feedback. I understand you were disappointed upon arrival when the room assigned wasn't turned over. For that reason, we immediately upgraded you from your reserved standard room to a two-room suite at no additional charge. As noted on our website and listings, we are a Bavarian ski lodge, and the rooms are furnished in a traditional Alpine style to reflect that character. While décor is subjective, we do our best to maintain the authenticity and history of the lodge. We regret that your stay did not meet your expectations, for future visits to Vail, we would recommend choosing one of the more modern-style properties in the village, which may better align with what you are looking for.

Verified reviewGreat location. Very helpful and friendly staff
We had a garden level room —no AC so window open for air—gardener watered into our room, hit twice by workers exiting into hallway from our room as door too close, shower curtain kept falling down while using shower.

Verified reviewLocation is perfect, very peaceful with the creek running right behind the property and a little deck/patio to sit on and listen to the water. The owner and the employees are wonderful and very helpful to make your stay perfect.
It could use a little maintenance but it looks like they are currently undergoing some. The property has been there for over 60 years and still looking great.

Verified reviewWe stayed for 2 nights at the end of July. Location is very convenient. The room we stayed at first floor has the historical, classical feeling reflected in the amenities and design of the room. The room air can get really dry (which probably common at this altitude), the room had a humidifier available in the closet. If you prefer modern amenities and design, this may not be room type for you. It was clean and the staff was very helpful.

Super small room. If we had been family with 2 small kids, maybe. Super tight quarters, small bathroom, right next to parking lot and no A/C only box fan. Spent considerable time on the patio/pool deck which again was nice.
