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 KingdomExcellent location between the historic centre and day trips from the bus station & train station and really helpful team on the front desk. We were recommended a brilliant restaurant close to the hotel which was serious about their cooking.

United KingdomNothing..... Ticked all the boxes for us!
Location just 10-15 minute walk from Centrale railway station, staff extremely friendly and helpful, just another 10 minute walk to Via Etnea. Excellent breakfast with everything from home baked cakes to scrambled eggs. By Italian hotel standards, definitely one of the better hotel offerings. Room freshly renovated with an excellent bathroom and shower. This was a special occasion for us (40th wedding anniversary) and the hotel went out of their way to make it a lovely experience!

IsraelIt's worth noting that certain areas nearby may be less safe for solo nighttime walks. It was known in advance that there wouldn't be a coffee machine in the room, but it would have been nice to be able to enjoy a cup of coffee on the balcony in the morning or the afternoon (see the look from the balcony picture).
My recent stay at a 3-star hotel in Catania, Italy, was highly enjoyable. The room was spotlessly clean, and the staff's friendliness added a welcoming touch to the experience. The breakfast offered a variety of delicious options, providing a great start to each day. I also appreciated the assistance in arranging transportation to and from the airport (a paid service). The hotel's location near the old town made it convenient to explore many historical sites, creating a memorable experience. The overall positive aspects of my stay far outweighed any minor concerns, and this will be my goto hotel during my next visits to Catania

AustraliaHotel was very nice, very comfortable, and very clean, with helpful and pleasant staff. Breakfast was included and it was more than sufficient - a typical continental breakfast with breads, jams, yogurts, cured meats, cheese, and pastries, but there were also cereals and scrambled eggs. A selection of teas or coffee as requested. The hotel has an elevator, which is great if you have luggage and are in a higher floor. It's about a 10 minute walk from the train station and about a 20 minute walk to the centre (Piazza Duomo). Happy to recommend this hotel and I would stay again.
