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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomThe only thing that was a bit difficult was the lack of kitchen facilities. There is only a kettle and fridge with some cutlery and tea available. No sink or microwave which made it a bit harder in terms of meals, however, to only stay for a few nights we made do with supermarket foods that needed no prep.
This hostel was a great place to stay in Grindelwald, the breakfast was really good with lots of variety and a great coffee machine! The hostel was very quiet which was nice and the views out to the mountains were incredible.

I booked a single room here at a price I was really happy with — and it turned out to be such a lovely stay! When I arrived, the owner had even placed a little Swiss candy on the towel, which was such a sweet and thoughtful touch. The room itself was small but cozy, with everything I needed: a space to hang my clothes and a large drawer that could store so many things — I loved it! It helped me keep everything tidy and easy to access during my stay. The shared bathroom was always clean and had a pleasant wooden scent. It was rarely crowded, so I could use it comfortably at any time. The fridge is on the ground floor and, if I remember correctly, available between 15:30 and 21:30. I didn’t notice that at first and tried to use it in the morning — but the owner was super kind and immediately opened the door for me without hesitation. Breakfast was also delicious and surprisingly varied. My favorite part is the little colorful peppers and cucumbers — I had never tasted anything like them before, and they were absolutely amazing! I only tried them on my last day, and honestly, I wish I had sooner. Every day I spent here was warm and happy. I really recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and homely stay. Oh, and fun fact: I even ran into the lady owner while hiking in Männlichen — lovely coincidence!

United StatesThe bottom sheet on the beds were pretty coarse. Didn’t really bother me, but my wife had a hard time sleeping because of the feeling against her skin. A simple bottom sheet would help greatly.
Hosts were wonderful, fresh breakfast and beautiful views. Great location as well. Clean rooms and the shower had great water pressure.

United States1. No hair dryer. The weather in June is already very hot, so even if there is no air conditioning, fans should be provided. 2. Because it was very hot at night, we had to sleep with the window open, but since it was near the mountains, we were bitten badly by small mosquitoes.
The location is good and Mountain View is great. Good breakfast.

What not to like? The breakfast was amazing with so many good choices: lots of different types of coffees, breads, cheeses, fruits and more. The atmosphere of the whole place was so cozy. The room was perfectly cleaned and the shower was very hot! The staff was very friendly to us as well. The location is spot on! Right on the Main Street of the city, real close to amazing restaurants, souvenir shops, the Grindelwald First station and 5 minutes from a Coop and the Grindelwald train station, which was super convenient. And the view from the hotel, absolutely breathtaking!

TaiwanThere is only one wash machine available in this town and takes two bus stops to get there. You must be luck enough to get clothes washed.
You may see their effort to make everyone's stay in a good quality. As long as there is no crazy people on the main street, this place is very quiet.

BrazilI didn't like having to leave the hostel and Grindelwald! :)))
The stay at the hostel was lovely. The view of the Eiger from the balcony of the room is breathtaking! And the rural landscape, with the clusters of houses climbing the hills at the foot of the Eiger, is beautiful! The Swiss breakfast is delicious, with fresh bread and produce from the garden. The place is super quiet and you can hear the birds singing at dusk and sunrise. A stay in Grindelwald at the friendly Lehmann's Herberge hostel is unforgettable!
