Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

United States of AmericaWe absolutely loved our 5 day stay here! The staff were so friendly, breakfast was amazing, and the grounds are beautiful! The pools at the hotel are lovely to spend a morning/afternoon in. We also really liked the location (can walk to Poseidon spa and the beach and there are several restaurants nearby), and with the bus stop right outside it was so easy to get anywhere on the island. The staff also helped us arrange our taxi to the port on our last day and we really appreciated all their help throughout our stay!

United KingdomIt would be lovely if they added a higher quality natural yogurt to the breakfast selection. Plain Yogurt was very popular during our stay and I think all the guests would appreciate one of the natural Sudtirolese yogurts widely available in Italy.
The setting is perfect! Sea views and 4 thermal pools are gorgeous and in addition on the practical front the bus stop to tour the island is a one minute walk away. The staff were marvellous - very helpful and accommodating.

ItalyThe room floor was not cleaned daily and the bed was made badly. The cleaner had several hours time to clean when we went for lunch and when we came back the room was still not cleaned. We booked a room with terrace but it was not private and was over looking the parking lot.
The garden is stunning and there are several pool and sun bathing areas. Breakfast was very good.

Beautiful hotel nested in the hills with a premium view. The 4 pools (3 which doesn’t allow children… so it is quiet!!!!) are great! Nice breakast with a lot of options. Situated at 100m from the bus station number 2 which allows u to go around the island easily (or they can help u rent a scooter for 35€/day) Great massage to finish a perfect week!

United States of AmericaYou must wear a swim cap in the pools, but instead of offering them to guests they have to be purchased. Guests also have to pay to rent pool towels and pay for bottled water. Considering how much the rooms cost per night it would have been nice for those expenses to be covered by the hotel. The WiFi is not the best.
Great location! Close walk to the beach, restaurants, shops and a minimart. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. The staff members are very friendly & accommodating.

SwitzerlandThe only complaint was that in the age of easy to use self-serve coffee machines, coffee at breakfast was not quick in coming and not that good (particularly in Italy). Perhaps they should consider investing in a couple coffee machines for guest use freeing up staff to replenish food on the buffet or clean tables.
The pools and grounds were beautiful and well maintained. Our room was spacious and very comfortable with a lovely terrace with a small table and chairs. The A/C was a welcome relief from the heat in the late afternoon. The staff was friendly and attentive, even alerting us that the ferry we had from Forio had been canceled and arranging a taxi to the other port to catch the ferry to Naples.

United States of AmericaDoors were very loud sometimes would wake us but the minor inconvenience was def worth the small sacrifice.
Room and whole hotel was super cute and very clean. There thermal pools were awesome. Walking distance to small downtown area with shops/market, beach, and some great restaurants. Would recommend also walking to the Poseidon thermal baths! Breakfast was absolutely phenomenal with fresh juices and tons of options. Front desk staff was great at arranging affordable taxi rides. Also check out the spa offers they were very affordable I got a massage that was great and a couple friends got massages and facials that were great!

United States of AmericaThe AC went off as planned daily during day, 9-2 pm. The fan was only adequate when we were there and over 90 degrees outside. I got a few mosquito bites at lower pool when I did not use spray. I highly attract them, not the property’s fault.
The breakfast was great and plentiful. The view was wonderful on the upper floor and grounds are pretty. I loved the tiles. The staff was very helpful with our luggage , and got us a taxi van for 30 euros from Ischia port. Pools were old but fabulous. The stairs were even and easy to climb. Beds are very firm, my preference is firm but its 9/10 firm. The internet worked most of time but not reliable every minute of day. I was not there for business so it did not bother me too much. The local bus is down the a tree lined path thats not lit but its a 1 minute walk and beach access is across the street. Occasional locals sit on path and it felt creepy at first but we felt safe since theres a few guests around until late. Hotel is pretty quiet but one evening there was loud music on beach restaurant for a bit and coming from upper hotels. It was okay and done by 11 pm . Its quiet inside the room always and on property. You can purchase food at lunch time then simple snacks and drinks until late at night . Please enjoy all the thermal pools. It was so peaceful and only used our first and last evening.

The view was the most fantastic panorama you could imagine. The hanging gardens with a lot of bronze statues, flora and four thermal pools with great massage features were over the top. The staff was Uber fantastic too and will arrange everything for you. Poseidon is only two minutes away by foot.
