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 AmericaI am not a huge fan of heavily carpeted rooms, they make me feel dusty . However I appreciate them as a sound reducing measure. The front step for our ridiculous amount of luggage; but we were helped as soon as we showed up and as we were leaving.
Beautiful classic old world furnishings. Gorgeous wood work, marble reception desk and bar counter. Lovely refinished bathroom. Loved the room darkening/sound reducing window shutters! We slept SO well! Quiet residential street with easy subway access, away from the heavily trafficked touristy hubbub. Very clean, well maintained. Thank you for the help carrying our suitcases up and down the front steps. We are in our 60’s and felt as though we were entering an Ivory Merchant movie.

United States of AmericaThe space is very dated. Our rooms were in the basement and were a bit musty. A toilet didn’t work in one of our rooms. All in all, it is fine for a night or two to be close to the Vatican and for the breakfast.
Very easy walk to the Vatican. Amazing breakfast on the rooftop terrace.

IrelandSmall things broken, e.g. sink drain. Bathroom a little cramped but depends on room because my sons’ room was bigger and perfectly fine. Lack of evening catering but ok it’s a small hotel so you go out to eat! Not much to do in the evenings.
Old world Italian hotel. Nice breakfast on the roof terrace. Fantastic guys on Concierge! Lovely dog Heidi. Comfortable bed. Great location. 10-15 minutes walk to Vatican. Literally 50 metres from Lepanto Metro stop.

AustraliaBeautiful room, very high ceilings give feelings of spaciousness, very comfortable bed, bus and metro for multiple destinations at your door or very close by, very short walk to supermarchet restaurants and other shops, close to Tiber river. The best rooftop garden terrace breakfast. Everything from fresh fruit cereal yoghurts to hit scrambled eggs and bacon and most amazing cakes. Most lovely helpful breakfast attendants too. Reception staff helpful and answered all enquires and phoned taxi for our departure to Termini at the end of our stay. Quiet location away from the busyness of central tourist areas yet still close enough to walk or bus or metro if not walking that much.

United States of AmericaThe hotel is cute and small but the air wasn’t the best and we were there during extremely hot temps. The breakfast in the morning was great;) The shower in my room has weird positioned sprayers that weren’t ideal. Overall the hotel fit the the needs of our brief stay prior to boarding our cruise.

ItalyWe stayed in a basement room, it was dark and had a musty smell
The location of the hotel is nice, right next to the metro station towards the city center. It is not a fancy place but great for a couple days. The bed was really comfortable. The breakfast is on the top floor with nice view and the food is pretty good for Italian breakfast standards.

Austriafor a 4 stars Hotel it's much more to expect. The Bathroom infrastructure is in decay, the breakfast offer is to limited. In general the Hotel is decaying with time, and it needs for this quality a good renovation. The Rooms downstairs are to avoid, because one ears everything above. To much expensive for the offering.
The Location is perfect, outside the historical center, and yet everytthing reachabel on foot. For those wo are travelling with car is perfect. Nice Breakfast Terrasse and frendly Personal
