Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

As for the staff, it’s fifty-fifty. We were welcomed very professionally by some, while others perhaps should not be at the reception if they are unable to offer a smile to the guests.
Our room was very pretty, and the bathroom is well equipped with plenty of storage space. The location is ideal for walks. The breakfast buffet is very pleasant.

The only thing that was a negative was that our room 104 was on a very busy road & it was very noisy until midnight & started up again around 5am… otherwise we lived our stay.
Everything was lovely. The rooms were great, clean tidy, roomy, bathroom was nice too. Staff very helpful & friendly & breakfast was delicious, lots to choose from. Great location.

Parking is an issue - they offer valet parking which can be a nuisance if you need the car a lot (need to inform 30 mins before). Parking is difficult in Santa Margherita (no long term parking, charged by the hour until midnight) Streets are very loud (Motorini!), no chance to sleep with open windows. Luckily, sound insulation is very good with closed windows.
Classic Italian Hotel, nice facilities, very good breakfast choices, friendly staff. In the heart of Santa Margherita Ligure.

A very minor issue, but a pet bug of mine, dirty plates and consumed items were not removed from the table between courses at breakfast... this could easily have been done.
A good old-styled property very centrally situated with easy walking to most parts of the city. The reception and check-in were easy and the staff facilitated the parking of our car. The room was well appointed: very comfortable bed, good AC, spacious, with a nice modernised bathroom and strong shower! Breakfast was generous and served buffet style in a beautiful terrace (or indoors).

The air conditioner was really weak, we had to sleep without blankets to feel a bit cool which is unfortunate considering how hot Santa Margherita Ligure is
The staff were really helpful and managed to accommodate to our needs in very little time. the room was clean and well prepared and the breakfast was really good

A little difficult to find. It's tucked into an area about one block "north" of city center round about. GPS could not locate. The actual location is good, just hard to initially find.
Somewhat historic facility with very interesting interior decor. Good breakfast.

The stair hand rail was filthy. So dirty I couldn’t touch it. The bin and toilet brush in bathroom need to be replaced. They have served their purpose. Not acceptable for 4 star hotel or any stars for that matter.
Breakfast was good. Great location. Short walk to both station and restaurants. Felt safe walking around.

Excellent breakfast. Great room and shower. Nice friendly gentleman on check in. Appreciated the parking as street was packed. Went to the Oca Biance down the street for dinner....excellent wine but the food was really disappointing.....worst monkfish dinner I've ever had (a spongy one ounce piece of fish for $28, that I doubt was actually monkfish). Wife's steak was tough and was not a filet mignon. I suggest you don't recommend this restaurant for dinner until they get their act back together.
