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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

ChinaThe location and the breakfast. The lift and the storage of luggage after check-out. Some of the employees are nice and kind. But one man at reception is not very welcoming when I tried to check-in. He saw me approaching the counter while he was trying to sit in front of the computer. He sat down anyway and after I said I would like to check-in, he then slowly stood up and walked to the counter.

RomaniaIf I must find some small minuses: we didn't receive an iron, only a steamer, for a 50 euros deposit, money which they gave back the next morning after handing over the steamer. The bathroom was a little small, it was difficult to enter, the door was not opening fully (due to it's weight, scratched the floor). The floor in the bathroom was not very clean. The walls in the bathroom presented marks of saltpeter.
Very nice hotel, very close to the trains station and also close for visiting the city. It has classy, old stylish furniture. Very organized staff, breakfast started at 7AM exactly. The breakfast was very good, varied, tasty with many options for all tastes. The room was very nice, with hard wood furniture, the windows had a nice arcuate form with a view to an inner courtyard. Good air-condition system, which was good on the hot summer days. The bed was very comfortable, clean, with good pillows. Towels were changed daily. We had a good stay and would gladly return.

NetherlandsIt should be noted that the hotel's pricing was slightly expensive compared to similar accommodations in the area. The overall vibe of the hotel had a slightly dated feel to it, which may not appeal to those seeking a more modern ambiance.While the breakfast offered a variety of options, I would have liked to see more vegetarian choices to cater to a wider range of dietary preferences.
The hotel's location, just a 3-minute walk from the train station, was incredibly convenient, making it easily accessible. The staff were exceptionally nice and provided excellent service throughout my stay. From the reception to the housekeeping staff and the restaurant team, everyone was friendly and welcoming. I particularly appreciated the feedback form provided, as it allowed me to share my thoughts and experiences.The cantucini biscuits provided were a delightful touch, adding a pleasant flavor to my stay. The room itself had a cozy ambiance, and the lighting on the rooftop added a charming touch to the overall atmosphere.

BelgiumThe rooms need to be modernised & refurbished. They still have a thick wall to wall carpet & loud wallpaper.
Great location, you are a few min walking distance from the Duomo, restaurants etc. The room was clean, the breakfast was very good: cold cuts, cheese, croissants, bacon, scrambled eggs, my favourite: homemade cakes. All the staff was very friendly except for the gentleman at reception.

United StatesWe were originally put in this kind of Attic room where my 6'5 husband was hitting his head and having to duck to go to the bathroom. It was redone but wasn't going to work. They changed our room to a small room where the orange paint was in desperate need of touch ups with peeling off walls. We didn't want to complain again so just dealt with it. However i probably would not stay there again. For $200 i think we could have found a better place.
The staff were friendly and the location was close to the train so we could easily pick up our bags and get to the train. The breakfast had a variety of foods.

RomaniaFirstly, in my opinion, the hotel is much much overpriced (we payed approximately 260 EUR per night), thus, in my opinion, the main minus regardin the hotel is the value per money ratio. Another major issue is with the breakfast, which had an extremely poor selection of food (with almost no vegetables and with basic stuff, like omelette or espresso, at extra costs). Another bothering fact was that right at the arrival, despite making the reservation via booking.com (thus having the credit card details), the receptionist asked us to pay at the arrival, leaving a bad impression, making us feel like not trustworthy.
The hotel is excellently located, right near the train station and couple of minutes away from the city centre and all major attractions. The mattress was comfortable, and the rooms and bathroom were clean. The hotel has an authentic Florence style.
