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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Nothing.
The hotel is in the city center and in walkable distance from all sights. It is a new, very nice hotel, the room was clean and everything was comfortable there. Very good shower and hairdryer. Public parking is very close to the hotel if you travel by car. We also liked the breakfast area, which is at the rooftop of the hotel. Basic, but good breakfast.

The room was larger than I expected, very clean and comfortable bed. The bathroom also very clean and everything I needed provided. Breakfast was good, I was able to order fresh fruit salad which was excellent. The staff were all very welcoming and helpful. Location also excellent, very close to de Ferrari square with the big fountain so good for navigation!

There was no bidet in my room (they told me there is one in all the other rooms) and no desk, even small. Having breakfast outside was a small inconvenience for me, as I have the habit of having breakfast first thing in the morning and then going back to my room to brush my teeth, etc. The real problem, however, was that the room was really too hot, where the temperature seemed to be adjustable but in practice was not. I hope this problem will be fixed, as I intend to go there again in the future. Luckily, I had a shower cap with me; it would be nice to provide one and some tissues as well.
This cosy hotel is in a fantastic location in the city's centre; it is in one of the famous Genova's "caruggi", very near the main square, so every place is easily reachable on foot or by bus. The room was small but looked good; the bed was really comfortable. The price is very reasonable, especially for that area. The breakfast is served in a nearby nice cafeteria.

As above
The hotel and staff were amazing. Just an aside, but a mirror in the bedroom would have been nice. The location is also amazing. We took the Volabus direct from the airport, approximately 20 mins and it dropped us in the main Ferrari Square. The hotel is a three minute walk from the stop. We also took the bus on our return. Also, worth noting is that the breakfast is not served in the hotel but a lovely cafe attached to the Opera House. Two mins from the hotel. As it is a cafe/patisserie, continental breakfast only was served. We would have liked more fruit/cooked choice options.

Walking from carpark to hotel was hot and lifting the heavy suitcases down staircase was difficult but not hotel fault and we appreciated that they helped us with finding parking station. When we checked out, the lady at reception told us an easier way to get back to the carpark without having to use stairs.
Location was right amongst the hustle and bustle of Genova; everything you want to see, taste and drink was minutes away. A multitude of selections. Staff was courteous and helpful.

The whole breakfast at a bar in the neighborhood didn't sound like it worked out, so we just went in the local area instead.
The location is great, I wish I knew about the metro earlier to make the journey easier from the station!! But equally, I enjoyed the walk :) great value for money all around!
