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...).

BelgiumIt is in the city center center so it is not quiet during the night. It is not very recommended to people who have difficulties in sleeping. Also, there is no elevator. The shower water is heated by a water heater and is not sufficient for multiple people.
Absolutely excellent location with a great view from one of the rooms. The rooms are spacious and are perfect for a family. The staffs are nice and they bring breakfast to rooms on the required time.

United KingdomSome electrical outlets were not working and the outlets themselves are a bit particular even when you have a European adapter (we manage to get one working but it was not the most convenient). The bedroom walls are quite thin (old building) so you can hear the music of the restaurant downstairs; however it doesn't close late and really some noise is the "price to pay" when you are in the middle of the happenings of a touristy place.
Exceptional location, literally on one of the main plazas: 5mn walking distance from all the main attractions (museums, historical monuments...). Good authentic restaurants on the plaza. Staff was very friendly. Room had a lot of authentic charm yet the bathroom had all modern amenities. After check-out a separate room (with toilet and shower) is available so that you can leave your bags there and still enjoy your day if you travel late in the day.

United KingdomOne must consider this is an older building. The bathroom is small for 3 or more people staying multiple days. The shower is a traditional small, round tube. Important to know this when renting multiple days.
Location is truly spectacular. Great views of the piazza and easy walking to all major attractions. The bedrooms are large and spacious. Because we checked in after business hours, we had the ability to do a self check in. The staff made it very easy. The staff is truly attentive and responsive. Very kind and helpful.

United KingdomWe really found Casa Del Garbo to be excellent and the only suggestion would be to have a coffee machine in the room. The selection of teas was appreciated though.
The lovely staff were friendly and very helpful, communication before we arrived was excellent and we were warmly welcomed. There was a very good choice for breakfast and it was a treat to have it brought to our room. We stayed in the Arnolfo Suite with our teenage granddaughter and it was great to have the two bedrooms. We loved the sympathetically designed rooms, the view over the Piazza De La Signoria and being just a few minutes walk from all the places we wanted to visit (5 or 10 minutes from Uffizzi, Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, and 15 minutes walk from the Academia.

United KingdomIt's a little bit old, tired, cracked. The breakfast served in the room with limited choice and shower needed a little more power.
Perfect location right in the heart of Florence. Very italian, I would describe it more like a B&b than a hotel, as receptionist didn't stay there for too long. We had a key for the front door and it felt like we were going home. Rooms are spacious and pleasant, clean and tidy. Would I stay there again? Yes.
