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...).

ItalyOne small mishap was that we had arrange a pick up form the train station and had to phone them to remind them - but they remedied it fast by sending a transfer ASAP
The hotel is stunning- from the outside it is a historical building but has been renovated with all the modern fittings and comforts. The room was clean and had an amazing view of the lake (the Hotel had upgraded us to a room with a view which was very appreciated and a lovely surprise) - top quality amenities from the linen to bathroom toiletries. The hotel is on the water (unfortunately we where there on a overcast winters day and so could not maximise the pool and all the outdoor facilities) but could see that it would be amazing in warmer weather. The breakfast spread was extensive and delicious- it catered for all dietary needs and the staff were attentive.

ItalySome basic things would make a major difference: stairs into the lake, rather than a slippery rock; a bath plug (we asked for one but it never came); someone on duty at the pool all the time (we had to go hunting for someone to get towels on the second day); enough toilet paper without having to ask. For the high price, we would expect these things to be sorted. Probably not the hotel’s fault, but the modern art in the lake somewhat spoiled the view!
Incredible location, good pool, good seats.The food in the restaurant was exceptional, if a little expensive. Breakfast service was excellent, very good food service. Valet parking.

United KingdomThe pool walls were covered in fake tan and sun tan lotion which put me off swimming in it. We swam in the lake instead.
Great location on the lake. Water was very clean and you could swim from beside the pool. Staff were friendly and helpful and the food was good. The local village was near by with plenty of restaurants. Boat trips to the island from the square. It is smaller and less busy than other lakes which we really liked. A great relaxing break. Their was a music evening with special food which was excellent, really enjoyable. Great location to also go to Lake Maggiore. We went to Stresa and the islands which were very beautiful especially Bella.

New ZealandOur room lacked proper curtains or shutters which made the room very hot in the late afternoon. The problem was compounded by the ineffective airconditioning that didnt cope. Word of advice: Do not simply follow your GPS and drive through the very narrow one-way streets of Orta to the hotel as we did. Locate the proper access before you arrive.
Great Location, fantastic view over the lake and a good breakfast. The room was OK but there were a couple of issues.

SwedenWe had booked a room with a balcony but got a room that only had a french balcony. When we pointed this out, they gave us a room with a proper balcony :)
Pool area with possibility to also swim in the lake. The location is super good, and the view from the room/balcony (superior with lake view) is fantastic.

United KingdomI had the junior suite but the AC was not working so they had to promote me to the suite! but even in the suite the aircon condensed and was dripping! So not very nice in this heat. My son a superior room, which again was very nice but turned out near the breakfast area and it was noisy from early morning ! There were no coffee machines in the rooms and although when asked provided a kettle but with Nescafé ! No tea available… so the little touches that make or break a hotel were not available which is a shame as the place has so much potential! One feel that it runs on its own 😞. Plus the breakfast was very average with stale croissant
We liked the hotel, it’s location and amenities- the rooms were clean - I had a comfortable - one of the party did not!

AustraliaThe rooms themselves were in need of renovating. Perhaps 40 years ago they would have been great but sadly our villa room with lake view had a bathroom in need of new fixtures and furniture worse for ware (not in the antique way but in the purchased in the 80’s kind of way. The fridge needed a good clean as the heat had produced mildew and the room in our smaller room had a leak in the ceiling probably because the air conditioners were working overtime (and they were struggling with their load and condensation build up in the pipes i suggest.)
Awesome location. Swim in pool or lake. Restaurant was perfect. Walk around town was magical. The property was sumptuous (except for the rooms) the staff were lovely attentive and professional. While the rooms were a little dated, the linen and beds were very clean.
