Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

PortugalSome staff could be a bit more amicable, warm!. The hotel is very simple, rooms are old style, no room to put up your stuff. No room in the bathroom to arrange your toiletries. Lunch choices are only available at the beach. I would not give this hotel a 4 star; but rather a 3 star hotel.
We liked the fact that a shuttle was made available every day to go/return to/ from Taormina.

IrelandThe hotel location is between busy roads and a train track. (This didn’t really bother me as Taormina is just a very busy place and the hotel is a little oasis of calm in between) but it is worth a mention
Lovely clean, spacious hotel with beautiful sea views. Friendly, helpful staff. Handy shuttle bus to and from town centre.

United States of AmericaNeed food options for lunch. Hungry when checking in and told nothing available in the hotel.
No food available for lunch. Had dinner there. Our orders were delivered less than 10 minutes after ordered and beautifully presented on the plate. Service was so fast the meals must have already been prepared and under a heat lamp for a while. Rabbit was dry. Having the shuttle was a definite bonus. Easy access and parking at hotel.

United KingdomLots of noise from early morning to early evening as the hotel were building cabins for the summer season. Drilling, hammering, a digger daily. Also balcony overlook the beach but also train lines at the back and busy road at the front. Noise all day till late at night, even with closed doors. Paying for towels by the pool. Daily cost of 3 euros each. Which could really build up over a week for a family or couple. No welcome water. I stayed in a cheap hostel in Catania. In the room on my 1st day was free bottle of water. However 4 star hotel not one bottle of free water. Stocked fridge but everything costs. Also paper cups in rooms. Not glass. I wonder of the recycling that has to be done if it is.
Rooms very spacious. Very clean. Good quality toiletries. Very comfortable bed. High quality linen. Well stocked fridge. Working TV. Balcony with sea views. Breakfast ok. Excellent staff. Nice pool area. Very comfy sun loungers. Beach is a few steps away. Nice reception and bar area. Nice restaurant.

United KingdomBiggest complaint as with so many hotels that there is no plug socket next to a mirror for us ladies . Dressing table and plug socket and a TV that no one watches ! Resorted to reversing the camera on my iPhone to style my hair. Drives me crazy ! You can’t dry hair in a bathroom full of steam from the shower! Went in October (26 -28 degrees) but can’t use pool as freezing which was reason for picking this hotel . Bathroom very dark
Nicely decorated room Good shower Good shuttle service to Taormina and free
