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 KingdomI stayed 5 hotels during my trip. I understand the good price in Switzerland is very expensive so this hotel provides a individual pack of 10ml shower & shampoo gel for each person. And they didn't provide us the pack on our last day. No coffee machine. A little bit overpriced.
The location is great - 2mins walk to the cable car station. The room has a large space and 2 showers. The bed is comfort to sleep. The staff are very nice. The hotel has a good italian restaurant at the ground floor.

AustraliaThe rooms were very hot in summer with no air con and there was a real problem with flies in the rooms if windows were open (although that may have been throughout the village). Cooking smells from the restaurant below were intrusive at times and certainly attracted the flies.
The property was in a good position with great view. Staff were always very helpful. Breakfast was simple but appreciated.

MalaysiaNo aircond but Grindelwald is not too hot in early summer, so it was bearable.
The room was very spacious, biggest we’ve stayed in throughout our trip in Switzerland. We’re so lucky to secure it as all other mid-class hotels were booked for summer since the year before! Since the hotel is part of a restaurant, it was easy to find food. It’s right next to the cable car going up to First Mountain, and only a short walk away from the train station.

RomaniaWe were afraid we needed a heater in the first evening, since the air got quite chilly. It was mid-June. But we couldn't find one in the room. However, it was only a feeling it was cold, eventually we didn't need heat in the room. But it would have been nice to have some heat source at hand in case it was really needed. Breakfast is ok, but please get rid of the coffee machine with pads. A regular coffee machine is way better, and doesn't create so much waste. Parking is free for guests, next to the hotel, but be careful; we had some marks on our car from someone who didn't fit on the narrow road :( (we were parked 100% correctly between lines, and it was a small car).
The hotel is right next to the Bus station and First cable station. It is above a pizza restaurant, quite busy in the evening, so expect some kitchen smells on the corridors. However, we had no smells in the room. It is really close to a wide range of restaurants, we even found bars with great views on the surrounding mountains. Room was bigger than expected, clean, and pleasant.

Very clean and comfortable hotel right next to the Grindenwald First gondola. Great homebase to visit three or four other mountain cities from. Short walk to grocery stores. Enjoyable local dining. The beds were extremely comfortable with wonderful pillows. The showers were large and had good water pressure.The breakfast was well above standard. Exceptional cappuccino and croissants. The staff was very engaging and professional. Parking was free. We would definitely stay here again and happily recommend it to others.

AustraliaPricepoint was on the high side, though probably comparable for the area/ Switzerland in general.
Location was great - perfect to base ourselves to explore Grindelwald for a few days. Rooms were comfortable, spacious and good facilities. Breakfast was great (we forgot this was included in our booking and it was a really great surprise) - lots of options and great service. Free parking on site was really convenient too. Despite being right in the town, we woke up to peaceful birds and cows in the morning which was really relaxing. Staff were fantastic- shout out to Jenny for making a 10/10 hot chocolate for me!

SwitzerlandUnfortunately, ther WiFi wasn't working for the 2 nights we stayed there. Our room was on the main road and, although it was quiet during the night, the traffic started around 5h.30 and we needed to keep the windows open as it was very warm.
The staff was exceptional - helpful and friendly. If arriving by car, recommend heading directly to the car park which is just behind the hotel : look out for Sunstar hotel on the right, then turn left and immediately right along Guggengasse and you'll see the private parking spaces of the hotel. Breakfast good with excellent coffee & friendly Jenny to make sure we had everything we needed. Well situated close to town and bus stop just outside hotel. Nice Italian restaurant.
