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...).

TurkeyEven tough this is not the case for us , the location may be a concern for elderly people or people who does not like walking. Although it is close to center , you need to walk a bit and it may be become difficult in the warm and humid days due to the location.
The building itself is amazing. The staff was welcoming. Breakfast is good. Has a parking place which is important if you are travelling by car.

United KingdomThis is not a complaint but observations. This is not a suitable location for anyone with mobility issues or a large car to park. The access to many residences locally is steep and winding and this hotel is no exemption! The quality is dated yet charming and typical of it's age, without frills or modernisation.
Great history and character. Welcoming and friendly staff and a reasonably convenient location.

United StatesThe road to the hotel is fairly busy and narrow so walking along it is not particularly pleasant - however, both directions, you only have to go a short distance before there is a pedestrian path into town. There is road noise which was easily managed by closing the door to the balcony.I expected a higher price for the Portofino area and indeed this was our most expensive night.
The room decor was quality, older style, very roomy, beds comfortable. Balcony was great. Staff were very gracious in having an early breakfast for us so we could catch our train. Breakfast was awesome! I would recommend this hotel and stay here again!

United KingdomThe hotel offered paid parking, but to reach the parking area and reception you have to drive up a very steep, narrow winding path, not for the faint hearted! If you walk out of the hotel, you are immediately on a road with no pathway for around 100 metres before steps lead down to a pathway. The very small dog beach is a long walk from the hotel and is not worth the effort.
The large room had a good view with the sea in the distance. The breakfast was reasonably good. The port and sea front could be walked in around 15-20 minutes and you pass many shops and restaurants on the way. Dog friendly hotel with lots of character, like an old Italian castle.

United KingdomIn regards to the actual hotel my only suggestion would be coffee/tea in room. After a long there is no option for a drink and no info at all in the room. As an aside note that cabs are 20 euros to and from the station which is over priced. They also drop you at gate and refuse to take you up the steep, windy driveway which with bags or a pram is not funny
Quirky. Nice size room with a great view. Lovely breakfast and helpful attentive staff.
