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...).

AustraliaLovely old school Sicilian hotel. Just stayed two nights before heading to airport. Well maintained with a lovely internal courtyard off dining room/restaurant and reception. Easy 15 minute walk to main tourist areas. All clean, very pleasant and good value which is why I've given a 9. Good sized room with large bathroom with quality fittings etc, very clean. Didn't expect an amazing breakfast as Italians don't do breakfast, but totally adequate and good coffee and pastries etc.

CroatiaThe hotel was very close to the city center but on the other hand it was easy to access by car to their garage. The accommodation was at the expected level, internet in the rooms was excellent and the breakfast was vary good. What makes this hotel different is the extremely friendly staff, who made us feel extremely comfortable the whole time staying there, almost like at home.

United KingdomI wish the hotel still had kettles with tea and coffee in the rooms. They withdrew this facility in the face of Covid, but I got a cold on the plane and would dearly have liked to have the ability to make myself a hot honey and lemon. I suppose I could have asked room service, but still...
The hotel is centrally located and yet is nice and quiet. It has a lovely old world feel with an appealing outdoor courtyard and a good restaurant which is well rated on google maps. The staff were always helpful and the rooms were large and scrupulously clean. It was very comfortable staying there.

United KingdomThe only small negative was not being served fresh coffee at breakfast and having to use a coffee pod machine instead.
A quietly elegant hotel located 10 minutes away from the centre of Catania. Our room was spacious and tastefully decorated and the bed was very comfortable with silent aircon which makes a huge difference. We had a large balcony which added to the feeling of spaciousness. Breakfast in the courtyard area was delightful - so much choice and very tasty. All in all, we would return to this hotel if ever travelling to Catania again.

CanadaIt does stand in an area that is a bit desolate looking, especially after dark. My room faced an apartment with a dog, who barked on and off throughout the night 😔.
Clean, good breakfast, staff professional and friendly. Location is good in that it’s close to main shopping area and tourist attractions. Relaxing courtyard area. I didn’t check out the pool .

DenmarkAlthough the room and toilet were very nice, the bath felt like it needs to be replaced together with the plastic divider. Also the mini fridge needs to be replaced as it is old and doesn’t cool fast enough. Another small downside was the lack of furniture on the balcony.
Even though, Katania was not my favourite place in Sicily, the hotel exceeded my expectations, the room was very spacious and clean with a comfortable bed. The hallways, patio etc were very nice. A big pro of this hotel is its breakfast, even though it was quite simple and lacked more hot dishes, it was very tasty with many good pastries and a big variety of fruit, a very nice addition was presence of many kinds of plant milk. There were just two kinds of coffee pods normal and decaf which were very tasty but having more kinds would be great.
