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 reviewIt was just perfect, the room was huge and bath was well maintained a clean (!) , dinner and breakfast was really good (maybe one of the best i had).
The location was challenging, since the it is positioned on high slope 10 minutes walking from the bus station of scheffau.

Verified reviewThis is an extremely comfortable, beautiful, family-run hotel with all of the best services of a large first class hotel, but it feels like being hosted by close friends. We stayed four nights and enjoyed every day and night. We loved the well furnished chalet, the beautiful bathroom and roomy sauna, the very comfortable beds, the extra nice linens and towels, the outdoor seating, the pool area. We appreciated the large parking lot. The meals were tremendous; the dinners had excellent choices of local cuisine. Each one an elegant surprise. Breakfast offered more options than we could sample-great breads and cheeses. Meats, fruits and vegetables, yogurts etc. Afternoon snacks were delicious and just as we needed them, eaten in the lovely salon. Best of all were the people who hosted us; at the desk, in the restaurant, housekeeping. We had access to their help with questions about the area and local services. Having traveled extensively for many years, we felt this was a remarkable discovery. Rare hosting and comfort.

Verified reviewFriendly front desk staff + I saw that some of the superior chalets were recently updated/remodeled
I have never left a bad review ANYWHERE but I am surprised this place has this high of a rating. Value for money was very poor. Old, dusty, inflexible... I booked this for a birthday trip and have to say that the overall experience was disappointing and I left feeling like I overpaid majorly. I have to add that I made the mistake of missing the cancellation period when first booking one of their chalets for 6 people. Their cancellation policies are extremely inflexible (30 days in advance). I missed it by 5 days and called to inquire in the most friendly way to see if we could split our booking to two days in one of their smaller rooms since we were no longer traveling with a big group. They kept making me the same offer of paying 600 USD/night for the smaller room AND paying an extra night which I kept declining. I could see that there were rooms available for ~300 USD per night which made me believe it would be possible to just split my money in two but they kept refusing to rebook me blaming Booking.com policies even though Booking.com kept telling me that it was up to the accommodation. To this day I don't understand why it was so hard to help me out here. Terrible experience but ok- I get that theoretically I'm the one who missed the cancellation window but I've never dealt with a place this inflexible and ridiculously overpriced. At arrival I have to say they were very kind and offered to show us the Turm-Suite which they could rebook us to but for 400 USD per night it was very old fashioned and old... so we decided to just stick to the chalet so we didn't have to pay another 200 Euros extra. To their credit they claimed that none of the cheaper rooms were available anymore which maybe by then was true but they were definitely available 25 days ago when I first made an effort to rebook our booking. At least they were not able to give me a real explanation for why what I was asking for was so impossible.

Verified reviewBreakfast was excellent. Would highly recommend getting the dinner. Great value with 4 courses that were excellent every night! The recommended wine pairings were excellent as well and we were able to try Austrian varietals.
