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 KingdomLuca was very friendly and accommodating. We loved the breakfast it was amazing and the cappucinos. Luca went out of his way to chat with us each morning and check in to see what we were up to for the day and how he could help out. The room was huge, the garden beautiful and really just a lovely place to stay.

Beautiful location. Stunning views. Amazing garden and pool area. The most fabulous breakfast 😊 On our touring trip we stayed in 6 different hotels, the breakfast and ambiance of this hotel was by far the best.. I would highly recommend you book a stay with Luca .. The owner (Luca) drove us up to the town, making two trips (as 7 in our group) and came back after dinner for us.. He refused payment..amazing service 😀

United StatesRecommend the A rooms if you can get it, we booked too late. Our room was nice and bathroom was brand new but we would have liked a larger space (we had Room 7)
Luca, and his hard working staff was amazing! Always there to take care of guests needs. Breakfast was great, best we’ve had in Tuscany. Excellent location, outside Volterra walls and easy parking. Fun mix of guests who talk to each other while enjoying the great patio. Awesome old house, loving maintained, recommend!

RomaniaNothing in particular, just an abrupt staircase, but this is something that cannot be changed. After all, this building used to be an old two-story 15th-century inn.
Amazing location (old XV century building) with a breathtaking view on scenery over Tuscany hills. Conveniently situated just over 1km (3 min drive) outside Volterra village center. Our hosts were very helpful and efficient. Provided a lot of insights about tourist attractions in the area, even a "custom made" map with a few suggestions about day trips with very useful QR codes for an easy orientation on Googler Maps. Enjoyed a lot the breakfast with many local / homemade products.

United KingdomWould have been great to be able to walk into Volterra, but too far and uphill.
Very welcoming and informative host, who truly cared. Breakfast was exceptional, easily the best on our tour of Tuscany. The hotel is very well located to explore much of Tuscany. Room very comfortable with incredible attention to detail. Also very quiet which we appreciated. Highly recommended.

United KingdomWe like everything about the hotel. After taste Luca wife’s cake, my wife said “amazing, fresh, superb “
We like everything about the hotel. The facilities are great, but what makes it special is the owner - Luca family. We arrived late, but Luca switched on the light of swimming pool for us, and let us use the plate for dinner. The breakfast is the highlight of this hotel. Luca and his wife cook everyday to ensure guests can enjoy the fresh and amazing Italian food. In addition, This is a family run hotel. You can feel the whole family tried to make you feel at home .
