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.).

DenmarkThe room could be a little cleaner. There was a bit of dust on top of lamps, under the bed and those types of places.
A very nice and quiet hotel, with a good breakfast with a focus on quality over quantity. The decor is nice and the little playground is fun for the kids.

United StatesWe really enjoyed everything about this place. There is no lift, so you need to be prepared to carry your luggage up an old winding castle staircase.
We wanted to stay in a real castle while visiting Germany. This property was an excellent choice. The staff was friendly, There was onsite parking. The town of Staufenberg was unremarkable, but the nearby town of Marburg was a great place to visit. We really enjoyed the restaurant in the basement with its old vaulted ceiling. The food and wine were good.

SwitzerlandThe staff could be more friendly, but their no-smile attitude adds to the authentic vibe. Also double check when its restaurant closes. You are unlikely to find food in the village after it.
This hotel is located in a medieval castle, so it’s hard to compare it to regular hotels. If you’re looking for an authentic experience of living in a Grimm's German fortress, this is the place for you. The breakfast is fantastic and well-organised.

IranIt was a little difficult for us to find the exact location and the entrance road of the hotel using our car navy. and the road signs were not so helpful for people who are travelling there for the first time.
The location was so nice and beautiful. The room was comfortable for the family and the staffs were really nice and polite. we enjoyed one night stay in the castle and I can say it was a unique experience.

BelgiumThis time, they changed the parking policy and now hotel guests have to pay 7,50€ per night. I mildly objected to this, esp. because restaurant guests don’t have to pay for parking (only hotel guests). The reply from the lady at check-in was “You can always leave your car somewhere else” but this was just disingenuous, since there is simply no parking in this village. In fact, it’s just a hidden price increase.
Stayed here sveral times in the past because of the location, charm and view

United KingdomThe wifi was very weak and unusable. I thought it was maybe not connected to the internet but a speed test showed it was but very slow! I made use of my phone to access business papers on the cloud.
We really enjoyed our stay. Although our suite was very comfortable it was annexed from the main hotel which was OK but not as expected. We had dinner at the hotel which was excellent and the staff were also excellent

GermanyMy reservation requested to the receiption for dinner in the restaurant has been ignored. The staff just said "YES" but it no place reserved. One guy in the restaurant quite unfriendly and not willing to support but his colleague quite nice with great effort. At the end I get a place in "KELLER" and some food. There was annoyed again when I asked to pay. An unfriendly staff just looked at me with side of his eyes and said "You have to wait". During my stunned, another nice staff left his activities and help to clear my bill ....actually i total understood that they were busy with many clients but it would be nice if someone keep service mind to customer. I felt total disappoint from few persons for this visited and unforgetable. 😕
