Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomI am very particular about the beds, so they were not very comfortable but my friends did find them alright.
It looked like the apartment had been renewed recently, so everything is very new and pristine. The kitchen is very well equipped and with essentials, which is very nice. We arrived quite late and they left some groceries for us and some presents like oranges and pastries. We had a problem with the TV, but Simone very quick fixed it for us and was available for every question we had. They have heating in every room so the flat was very warm and nice. It is very quiet and the views of Mount Etna are amazing. Because we were there in February, we did not use the swimming pool but it must be very nice in the summer.

MaltaWe had an amazing experience at Etna tra le Querce. The apartment was spacious and immaculately clean, providing a very comfortable and relaxing environment. The outdoor area was a highlight, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the fresh air. Our host was incredibly welcoming, greeting us with delicious treats and refreshing drinks, which made us feel right at home. The location of the hotel is unbeatable, with breathtaking views of Mount Etna that truly made our stay unforgettable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with excellent hospitality and beautiful surroundings.

HungaryThe double beds are really comfortable, the single ones are too soft for our taste, but it is really subjective.
The house with a beautiful garden in half an hour from Taormina or Catania, 10 minutes from a highway, in a small town of Santa Venerina at the foot of Mount Etna. Full view of the mountain from the garden! The house is spacious, stylish, very clean, the kitchen is modern. It can accomodate more than 5 people, with 3 bathrooms and 3 sleeping rooms. Huge living room. We could not use the swiming pool as we were there during winter, but it looks nice. Our host was very attentive and helpful, easy to communicate through whatsup, and responded in an hour. We had problem with the washing mashine (could not open the door), and the amount of hot water for the shower and they came next morning to fix it and afterwards everything was fine. They waited us with sicilian sweets, beer in the fridge, coffee for the mashine. I recommend this place for those who would like to visit Taormina, Siracusa and Catania and Mount Etna (40 min drive to the top), but would like to avoide the crowd in those cities. We found it easy to drive to these cities, leave the car in a carpark at the edge of the old towns, and discover them on foot. However in the evening we could drove home without the hastle to find parking spave on the overcrowded streets of these cities. It was quite cold outside, but the aircondition was sufficient to heat up the house.

United KingdomIt was faultless throughout ! Highly recommend this place to stay.
The property was so lovely and peaceful and there was so much room for 6 people. Being locked and gated from the street made us feel extremely safe and secure, although the entire area was peaceful already. With lovely scenery and views of Mount Etna and very peaceful at night in the huge garden under the stars. The family live at the villa on the top floor, but you wouldn’t know that they are there. It’s actually a blessing knowing that they are somewhere around if we needed anything. Rosario, Simone and their parents were fantastic hosts and also their lovely little ginger kitten who visited us frequently. We were welcomed with food and drinks on our arrival and then allowed to come and go as we pleased.
