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...).

NetherlandsThe breakfast was simple, not many choices, the milk was not cold enough and there could have been more fresh fruit considering there is a supermarket just across the street.
This was an ideal place to stop for our visit to Cinque Terre and La Spezia. It's a nice hotel away from all the noise and conveniently located across a supermarket. The rooms are clean and spacious but the bathroom could be a little bit more luxurious with a simple thing as a better (rain)shower.

IrelandConsidered fresh, inexpensive products available in local stores at that time, more effort could be made during breakfast, and not enough staff to help during breakfast (1 person for both reception and breakfast). Beautiful swimming pool but limited use for family with kids (depth, hours, sun beds).
Very clean, nice rooms, some of the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Good location to explore Tuscany. Well stocked supermarket next door and convenenient parking lot.

United KingdomWe had a little difficulty locating the entrance at first, but think it was more our fault than the hotel
The Hotel la Pietra is situated down a side road away from the main roads and therefore is in a very quiet location. Free secure car parking is a nice bonus. The room was a reasonable size and it had a balcony where you could sit outside and enjoy the sun. The bedroom offered all the usual facilities including a fridge. The bathroom was a reasonable size, clean, well stocked and well maintained. The hotel offers a lovely swimming pool and also sun loungers if you wanted to use them. We had a meal in the restaurant which was plentiful in portion size and tasty. Very good value for money. Breakfast was a self serve buffet with plenty of fresh items available. There is also a really lovely friendly cat that wonders around. All in all we had a very pleasant stay, thank you

SwedenDo not book this hotel if you want a descent breakfast! First day, we got packaged bread and no fresh fruit or vegetables and hard boiled egg (not cooked the same day) and the only yoghurt was with coffee flavour. Second day was slightly better with cooked ham and some fresh bread but no fresh fruit or vegetables. If the hotel advert free breakfast, it should be with at least fresh bread, fruits and vegetables. The was an electric water boiler in the room but no cups or coffee/tea. Many of the sunchairs were broken
Nice and clean pool.

NetherlandsWe stayed 1 night on our way to Elba. When we arrived it was a mystery how to get to the reception, as all gates were closed. The tags on the doorbell were so faded it was impossible to read. After randomly trying a bell a gate opened and we were 'greeted' by a person who did not speak a single word of english. We were shown to our room on the 1st floor while we booked a room on the ground floor. The lock of the door was very hard to open, even the owner took more than a minute to try and open the door. After this she left without any information about breakfast times, checkout etc. The same issue occured while trying to lock the door. The room was kinda spacious. The shower was moldy, and several places were just dirty with stains. Most of our towels were also dirty and in the end we shared the only clean towel we found. Bed was a 3/10. Breakfast was okay. 6/10. The pool was nice, but it was strange that the sunbeds were hidden behind a hedge. We got the feeling the 'hotel' was more of a side business next to the restaurant Elia (which was very nice).
The pool. Location of the 'hotel' was great for a night stop when travelling further down into Italy as it is fairly close to the highway.

United KingdomWe found it a wee bit difficult to find because there was no sign out onto the road. It was at the side. Also, we made the mistake of going up to the old village of Fosdinovo but it isn’t there. If you are looking to be in an old village in the hills of Fosdinovo it isn’t that but we had absolutely no complaints.
Loved the pool area, the garden with loungers to relax, and the fact we had two ground floor apartments for my elderly mum with an easy and short walk to the pool and garden and restaurant. Probably about 1/2 minutes. Enjoyed the calm atmosphere of the place through the day and the buzz in the restaurant in the evening. The food was absolutely delicious and service excellent.

SwitzerlandPerhaps improve a bit the variety /quality of theh breakfast.
The hotel rooms are nicely separated from one another. We visited in the month of April (easter) and temperature is still mild, but I notice the airconditioned had issues when switch to colder temperature so better have that check if going during summer. Communication with the staff was great, they were approachable to our needs. Breakfast was adequate. It's an Italian buffet as also advertised so don't expect warm foods. I wish the tables were set properly though during breakfast and not just one long table. Swimming pool was not yet open but we saw it and it is definitely smaller than shown in the picture. A great plus though is their Elia restaurant, a bisteccheria /foccaceria type restuarant if you would like one of the best Fiorentina steak in the region. Don't forget to reserve it though in advance. It was all worth it. In summary, our short easter stay in this hotel is good and we definitely recommend it.
