How guest reviews work
Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done 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 of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Hotel felt quite dated. Leaving keys at front desk each time was a minor hassle.
Excellent location by the train station was useful for visiting Cinque Terre. Elevator, good A/C.

in my two weeks travelling Italy , i found this to be the first hotel really catering to solo travelers. the room was the perfect size for me. While basic, it was comfortable and had everything I needed. The staff were very efficient and friendly. When you check in they have a QR code which you can scan and download a document with all the information you will need on train schedules and the different towns within the Cinque Terre . This was so helpful! The absolute best thing has to be the location of the hotel. Get out on the La Spezia Centrale train station, head straight ( slightly left ) to a glass enclosed structure with a lift. Take the lift/ or stairs down and exit the street below. the hotel is right opposite the street. Barely 5 minutes. So convenient! I definitely recommend this hotel and will book it again if i ever come back.

Its not the hotels fault but its difficult to get some sleep because theres noise outside from the street all night. Limited breakfast offering so I ate elsewhere. Bathroom quite cramped.
I liked the proximity to the train station and that it was easy to find. Really close to grocery store, restaurants and a quick walk into the city centre. Reliable WiFi which was important as I was working. Helpful and friendly staff. They make a good cappucino and the room was air conditioned.

Window was facing a busy road so it was a bit loud sometimes, only a problem if wanting to sleep long though.
Very close to train station so it was a good home base for exploring Cinque Terre.

Italien beds are Italien beds. They have their own structure but there is no problem of comfort, for me at least
The hotel is situated directly at the center of La Spezia, and the central main station. Perfect spot to move from A to B ASAP. Cinque Terre is like 10 min by train, so what more do one person need:)

This place is absolutely perfect for people solo traveling to Cinque Terre. It’s literally right next to the train station, so I was able to get up very early to take the train and start hiking. Super clean, very helpful staff, all in all exactly what I was looking for.

This was perfect for us, when a train strike stranded us in La Spezia. The Hotel Mary is just across the street from the train station, the room was fresh and clean, the wifi and air conditioning worked beautifully, the staff was friendly and welcoming. There is a breakfast option (or actually two options) but we checked out before that was served. We will remember this hotel for future travel. It was a delightful surprise in what had been a stressful day until checking in here. Thank you, Hotel Mary!
