Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

The staff at Hotel Sacher provided the best service I've ever experienced at a hotel. The hotel is truly historical, luxurious, grand and yet relaxing within a perfect location for a city break in Salzburg. The cocktails at the bar are also delicious!

Italyas a resident I expect to have a seat outside available at all times, no breaks - especially, if the sun is out.... after breakfast the luncheon area outside was packed with tourists, no place for us available... no alternative area until 16:00

United KingdomWe noticed a few changes since our last visit. The hotel no longer offers welcome chocolates. Also, our room was missed for cleaning one day because the 'Do Not Disturb' light was accidentally on. We're not sure how that happened.
Everything about the hotel was excellent. It's just a ten-minute walk to the old city center, and it's close to everything you'd want to see. The room was huge and comfortable, on the top floor, with a fantastic view of the castle and river. The staff were super friendly and really helpful, with great local knowledge. The concierge was especially amazing, helping me book restaurants in the hotel and elsewhere, and even arranging for my online coffee order to be delivered to my room. My wife recommended it after staying there three years ago, and we had a memorable time.

United StatesThe breakfast was marvelous! Our first day, Andrea showed us around the buffet and offered us additional courses that were prepared in the kitchen (like Eggs Benedict, omelettes, etc.). The selections were extensive and the food was delicious. My wife admired the jars that are used for cereals, nuts, and other toppings and she was given one to take home. This was one of the best breakfasts we've had in a hotel and the service was outstanding.

BrazilThere are no AC (air conditioning ) at the fitness room. So, It's very unpleasant to exercise without any ventilation! I felt sick. And when there were more than 2 people the quality of the hot air got even worse. Maintenance is urgently needed! This does not match the quality of the hotel.
