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.).

I stayed here in July and, unfortunately, the lack of air conditioning in the rooms was difficult to cope with — the fans didn’t help much, which sadly affected my stay.
Fantastic location in the old town, surrounded by many restaurants — perfect for fully experiencing the spirit of the city.

I wish we knew before we booked that: - there is no air-conditioning in the rooms (so you might want to consider booking this hotel during summer) - opening windows to cool the room is not advisable as the hotel is sandwiched between two clock / church towers which chime very loudly every half hour + hour throughout the night. However, soundproof window panels + earplugs provided are sufficient for decent sleep but may not be great for light sleepers
Location, location, location. Great restaurants right the doorstep of the entrance, and perfectly located to explore shops and sightseeing via foot. Despite some shortcomings on temperature regulation (during summer), the hotel's excellent location and great service truly made it shine. The reception staff tried their very best to make us comfortable despite not having any air-conditioning in the sweltering heat of summer (due to building codes in heritage buildings) and gave us different room options to consider. Shoutout to the hotel's bellhop, who seemed genuinely happy to assist whenever he can and always with a big smile on his face. Thank you!

I really do not have anything negative to say.
The hotel is in a perfect location. Within the old city walls, close to Paradaplatz Square, the Lake, Banhhofstrassen and less than 10 minute walk to the Train station. The rooms were comfortable and of a good size. The bed was very comfortable.

This does not apply to me, but if you are driving, no parking is available directly at the hotel. The nearest parking is about a 7-minute walk. But, like I say to anyone visiting Switzerland, you don't need a car. Switzerland is the only country I visit regularly, and I have never found the need to rent a car.
This is one of my favourite hotels in Zurich. It is my go-to place when I am here. The hotel is ideally situated close to Bahnhofstrasse and Paradaplatz square, and it is also within walking distance of both the lake and the train station. The staff is terrific. Very friendly and accommodating. They all made me feel like I have a home away from home.

Location is the best. Room is quite big for 2 persons. Many eateries around. We ate at the opposite restaurant Le Relais De I’Entrecote . “Entrecôte an exquisiter Sauce”. They only have 1 menu. “Entrecôte an exquisiter Sauce”. Beef with French fries or salads It was very good. Highly recommended.
