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.).

Nearest hotel to St. Peter’s Basilica. It is only 1-minute walk to enter the St. Peter’s Square. Very clean room with complete amenities. Quiet place and the rooftop restaurant has the best view, food and drinks.

SpainOur room was too close to the bar area so we could hear noises from the bar and people talk till late. Our door didn’t lock, they said someone was coming to fix it but nobody ever came. Very slow on sorting things out.

It is a stone away from the Vatican entrance. Transportation is easy to get and find in the area. A lot of restaurants and souvenirs store you can choose from. Seeing a lot of police officers around makes you feel safe.

IrelandMy arrival was stressful for two reasons: the room I booked wasn’t assigned to me and I believe the issue could have been resolved in a much more client friendly way- at no time did the hotel take responsibility for the fact that despite emailing and getting confirmation that my room would have a walkin shower that did not happen. Also I had booked an upgraded room amd that was not assigned to me. . It wasn’t until I was sufficiently upset that the receptionist ageeed to contact the manager who subsequently upgraded me to another room. 2. The other issue was that the taxi ordered by hotel was an hour late in arriving at the airport

United KingdomThere’s nothing we didn’t like about this property. Highly recommend! We will stay here every time we visit Rome.
This was my second time staying at Residenza Paolo VI and it won’t be the last! The location could not be more perfect, as it located directly on St Peter’s Square and the rooftop terrace overlooks the basilica. The rooms are warm, moderately sized, and comfortable. Breakfast is served in the mornings for free and the staff are friendly, bilingual, and knowledgeable about the area. They also arranged for a taxi to pick us up from the hotel and take us to the airport. I couldn’t recommend a better hotel to stay at in Rome, especially if your focus is on Vatican City!
