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 reviewAlmost perfect. Everything was good.
Breakfast was good, but the same breakfast every day. If staying for shorter time (1-3 days,than it is OK). We stayed 5 nights, so wanted something different. If breakfast would be different (ar least something different), than it would be 10 out of 10.
Thanks for the feedback and the advice. Happy you have enjoyed your stay. Your crystal Team

Verified reviewExcellent hotel in prime position, close to train station and other facilities. The staff are all so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble, they make you feel very welcome. The rooms are large and well appointed with daily cleaning. Buffet breakfasts provide a good start to the day with a variety of food on offer. Evening meals also provide a wide choice on the menu with well prepared and very tasty courses, most welcome after a good days hiking in the surrounding mountains!

Verified reviewDecent room with a balcony stating at the mountains and a great sauna etc area. The staff/owners are also lovely.
Like every hotel in Switzerland, the bedding is too hot for summer.
Thank you John for your review. We are glad that you had enjoyed your time here and we look forward to welcome again in the hotel

Verified reviewThe property is accessible to everything. It’s in the middle of Engelberg. Walking distance to the Gondola to Titisee / Trüebsee. The room was clean.
1. Unfortunately even though the room is accessible, the room was not built with a good ventilation system. We had to keep opening the window for better air. We couldn’t sleep well. 2. Upon checking in.. ask for the tourist card/discount for gondolas ticket, cause with us they forgot to mention it and we had to apparently check the room for any displayed paper about it and it was hidden behind the tea counter. 3. The kettle needs an adapter that was not in the room and the reception is closed in the evening so we did not get to use it until the last day. So don’t forget to request for that too. 4. When using the sauna, there is no water only an empty pitcher which we ourselves have to fill it with water from the sink where the toilet is. The doing it ourselves is no problem, but taking it from the toilet area was not really pleasant. 5. Breakfast could be warmer.
Good afternoon Ms. Amelita, thank you for your feeback. It is our main goal to give the best service possible. We will consider your concerns and we look forward to a next visit. Hotel Crystal

Verified reviewI was a little concerned when I realized how close the hotel was to the train station, but I needn’t have worried - the whole town is clustered right around the station, trains are infrequent, and they slow down as they approach the terminus, so there was no train noise at all. The restaurant was lovely and convenient, and the breakfast was simple but delightful - I especially appreciated the array of local cheeses, which were delicious.
The room was a little warm (it was an unusually hot day in Engelberg) and there was no fan or way to open the window more than a crack to cool it down. The street below was also a little noisy with crowds of tourists staying across the street, but that is not the fault of the Crystal.
Hi Abby, Many thanks for your comment. Happy that you have enjoyed your stay. Normaly the windows can be complet be opended. So in the night its cooling down fast. But I will check the room if something is not ok. Thanks for your feedback so we can check it. Hope to welcome you all soon again. Have a good time Your crystal team
