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 KingdomPillows too soft.. a minor issue.
I don’t often give a 10 especially as hotels are flippin expensive in Switzerland. However, I was actually sorry to leave Hotel Bern. The staff were fabulous issue with our aircon first night.. fixed which was bliss as it was 35C + outside! Coffee machine wasn’t working 2nd day fixed immediately. Room spacious, very clean, lovely bathroom, great shower and lighting. Bed big and comfortable, separate duvets .. love that! Aircon, fridge, tea and coffee machine, large towels, water supplied in fridge although Switzerland water from the tap is amazing! The roof bar!!! Not cheap but nothing is.. but a lovely spot to relax with a drink and there was a breeze up there, they also had lovely staff! Please give them aircon.. the bar area was very hot and I felt sorry for them! Can’t critic the food as we didn’t eat in the restaurant. Definitely we would return here!

NetherlandsParking is not at the hotel, prepare for a little walk. Book in advance the visit to the rooftop bar, because it's open for everyone. When staying at this hotel I recommend to visit the rooftop bar, but they don't let you go up if the place if full.
Good location in Bern. Nice hotel and rooms are good. Rooftop terrace is very nice for a drink and snack! Everything on walking distance and good to reach.

Canadano parking or valet service at hotel; had to park far away with luggage and pay; difficult to get to hotel; no bel service; streets are crowded and cars are limited in that area; would have preferred to stay outside City and bus in; staff kept changing our room price and did not include breakfast in our price (raised the price and didn't give us breakfast; stated the price changed based on availability and they were full; so the price would be lower the next week and would have included breakfast

AustraliaNowhere to open suitcases. Our door was right on the corridor wall, could hear a lot of pipes / water moving through them during the evening. Had to wear ear plugs. Having to also pay so much for parking and move the car by 9am meant we had to be up early, check out and get on the road which didn’t really allow us to enjoy our stay or sleep in. Based on this I probably wouldn’t book again.
Nice room, modern, large shower and bathroom area. Nice lobby and good cooling in our room

United StatesThe bathroom is not my style. The shower and toilet are in the same location with a sliding glass door. Does not give you very much privacy.

AustraliaWe were 3 adults in a room using the sofa bed but found the space quite generous. Beds and pillows were comfy and the room was very clean. Location was ideal, with Coop supermarket downstairs and Main Street a block away and Bern is easy to get around on foot or bus/tram.

United KingdomThe only improvement would have been two larger coffee cups in the room!
The location was amazing for exploring the city on foot, the hotel is in the centre for everything and yet on a quiet street with no noise at night. The room was spotlessly clean and modern, light and airy with excellent beds. Loved the rooftop bar and the nespresso coffee machine.
