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...).

CanadaWe had an enjoyable stay at Classic Hotel. It is a lovely old converted house into a boutique hotel with old world charm. The location is great, very close to the Porta Romana and the entrance/exit of the Boboli Gardens and the Pitti Palace. It is in a lovely neighbourhood with easy access to the old town. The sunroom and backyard patios were lovely to sit and enjoy. Bernadetta was a friendly and helpful receptionist. Onsite parking was also a plus. Breakfast was ok.

Great location. 15 min walk from all major sites. Very beautiful place. Real classic European. Not for someone that looks for modern luxury. 19th century luxury with bath. Big parking in entrance to the old city.

United KingdomThe breakfast was really disappointing though, starting from the options to the underground dungeon they have converted into a breakfast hall. Felt like off season the hotel really drops down they're standards but not as much their prices.
The room was amazing and the property was generally clean. The location is great and they have a lot of parking space. They have a tesla charger only so if you're planning to take any other EVs you are going to have to charge your car elsewhere.

GermanyThe breakfast is too simple and has got no hot food. The quality is just so so. My room has no separate bathroom and you need to work on it yourself by moving some parts, a bit troublesome.
The hotel has very good location, just outside the old city. You can walk in the city on foot in 20 minutes. It is quite old buildings with parking, but not so many. The rooms have got air conditioning and it is useful in hot weather.

RomaniaEverything was great with the hotel. One thing I did not really like was that everytime I was passing by reception, entering or leaving the building, staff was asking me what room I was in. After the first 2-3 times, it became annoying, as if I am an intruder and not a hotel guest.
-The hotel and the garden are very charming, the location is super quiet -Public transportation available nearby - good value for money -comfortable bed, big enough room, bathroom amenities, hot water

United KingdomVery poor Wi-Fi signal, the tv and lamp didn’t work, no plugs in room to charge phones, cobwebs everywhere in rooms, reception area, toilets. Mould and tiles missing in the bathroom . Breakfast was very basic, reception area was noisy in the morning where our room was. Really needed a good clean to freshen the whole hotel up and needed a bit of tlc. No good value for money at all.
It was a good location. One of the staff had worked there for 25 years was really pleasant. Clean towels.

We arrived early and the lady kindly allowed us to leave our car so that we could walk into the centre of Florence. Extremely handy distance, 15 mins to Ponte Vecchio. We highly recommend after a long hot walk in the centre the PortoRomana Pizza e Grill which is at 500 metres away. Lovely staff.
