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.).

United StatesNo coffee machine in each room just one in the reception that's available to use for everyone. Could have stored some creamer or milk for folks like us who would prefer a coffee over an espresso.
Loved the location. So central and so walkable to all the main attractions in Florence. The room was cleaned every day. The staff were amazing. There was an elevator in the building which was convenient when you check in and check out for luggage. Well maintained rooms. The breakfast was served in a sister hotel about 5-6 mins walk away. Amazing staff there too and loved their service. So cheerful and friendly every morning.

PolandMaybe some more light in the room would be helpful.
Perfect location in the heart of Florence. Our room was located in another building than the reception, but we were accompanied to it by the receptionist so it was not a problem at all. The room was spacious, with big bathroom, it was cleaned every day. Also coffee machine and some glasses were available.

Perfectly located in Florence. The rooms were amazing from decor, cleanliness whilst providing enough space in each room. Staff were very helpful and always at hand to answer any questions. The sister hotel was a 5 minute walk to have breakfast each morning on a sun terrace with beautiful views of the city. The added bonus of using the nespresso machine each morning for a coffee was perfect! Would definitely stay again when visiting the beautiful city of Florence!

AustraliaNot enough lights in the room, there’s no ceiling light so the room was lit by lamps, but in order to charge your phone you had to unplug the lamps so made the room very dim at times
Great location basically around the corner from the Duomo! And 2 min walk from the carousel, less than 10 min from the bridge. Incredible.

NetherlandsWhile the rooms are properly soundproof from the outside noises, it is not from the hallway. There is somewhere a very loud door (not sure if its neighbours' room that woke us up several times. The bathroom is very outdated. Shower door hanging loose, small shower head laying on the floor (please install a hook) towel hooks and shower amenities corner shelf almost falling off and shower head heavily stained and dirty. These are just minor inconveniences, but for a luxury B&B it really needs an upgrade
The location is perfect, when leaning out of the window we could see the famous catherdral. Our Beatrice room was very comfortable and lovely located in the corner. Service was very good both check in and the lady at the breakfast. Breakfast requires you to walk 5 minutes to another hotel, but the rooftop view is lovely and selection was good. Freshly made coffee and eggs. The coffee/tea room is actually a lovely experience with a decent coffee machine from Nespresso and cups. I was only missing milk (or creamer in the worst case) Location is absolutely perfect!

GreeceAs soon as we entered the room, we noticed carelessness in terms of cleanliness. There were hair on the floor (corners mostly) from previous clients and dust like the floor hadn't been cleaned for a few days. We asked for room service the next morning though and they everything was cleaned up afterwards. The shower totally needs a renovation. Most of it was broken and full of mold.
The location was perfect, exactly in the heart of the city! The room was tidied up and had a perfect look and feel. Big window and a refrigerator that was too handy to keep a few bottles of water cold.
