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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomPerhaps a new hair dryer for the room.
Wonderful hosts in a truly authentic Italian Palazzo. So much history right there. You will not be disappointed. Perfect location in the historical centre. Daniella and Dario greeted us like family on arrival giving us a tour of the hotel, telling us about the sights and even booking us a local restaurant. Breakfast was an experience in itself, again the staff are attentive and friendly ensuring you have everything you need. Staying here really made our trip to Florence very special. We would highly recommend Palazzo Tolomei to anyone staying in Florence.

United KingdomNothing at all. Danielle had it all covered.
Where to start.....everything was absolutely fabulous. A Florentine 'Party House' with many beautiful original rennaisance features. Danielle and her staff are the perfect hosts and we were incredibly well looked after there. Never stayed anywhere with so many 'wow' moments.The 6 course traditional Italian breakfast was amazing, prosecco in the fridge and a spread of biscuits amd sweets in the bedroom and shared areas. Went out their way to store friends luggage although they weren't guests.

Palazzo Tolomei is really impressive (both in architecture and history) We stayed in a suite with beautiful paintings on the ceiling. I liked it a lot! The staff was friendly and supportive, always welcoming us with a smile. Signora Daniela Agnelli (the owner of the place) provided us with interesting (and entertaining) information on different topics (food, Italian eating habits, art, itinerary etc.). She is very attentive to details. The cleaning service was also very good. Staying in the Palazzo was a delight!

GreeceAlthough we appreciate the historic nature of the property we think that some of the bathroom features could be more adapt to the practical needs I.e, space layout, space for the toiletries, shower batteries for water mixing, etc.
Palazzo Tolomei is a unique and historic building centrally located, still discrete and tranquil. We had an excellent stay in a large, spacious junior suite with beautiful frescos in the walls and ceiling, a very rich, carefully prepared traditional breakfast that changed every day and last but not least a generous, warm and open to communicate owner Siniora Daniela and her young, smiley and hospitable team. It was really a unique and memorable experience and we would definitely return when in Florence.

The location in the heart of Florence and the Angel owner Daniella 💖 The breakfast was a delight and completely different yet authentic!!! The best egg preparations everyday which was the best one we had in whole of our 4 week Italy vacation at 10 different locations. The bed was very pleasant and one of the best amongst all our stays .

IndiaEverything was more than perfect. The personal touch by the hostess gave a very welcoming feel. She was extremely helpful. Welcomed us personally. Before we reached she had already arranged a valet for our car, she made sure the check in was smoothly done. She also suggested and booked the best restaurants for us. The breakfast needs a special mention, sadly we could only have it on the first day. As we had to leave early they were kind enough to pack our breakfast with sandwiches, cakes, etc. Thank you to the entire team.

United KingdomThis is the most stunning property. Earlier in our holiday we actually walked past it without realising and I remember thinking how wonderful it looked - it stood out even in Florence ! It is a very elegant and classic property and the service is worthy of the top luxury hotels. The owner is one of the friendliest, most gorgeous hosts I have ever met. I will definitely know where we will always stay when we return to Florence in future !!

AustraliaLighting in bathroom for applying makeup - minor thing. Everything else wonderful.
Exceptional accommodation central to main attractions. Daniella and her team were attentive and welcoming, you felt as though you were staying with friends in an intimate setting. Breakfast was a standout and the local specialities as well as the service and conversation contributing to our knowledge of life in Florence. The Palazzo has a wonderful history and there are many rooms which are designed with books, music and local treats to complement your stay. Generous provisions and welcome gift in room. Ours had a loft bed up a spiral staircase which was perfect for a mother/daughter trip. We left early on our final day and departed with a breakfast box and a personal note. Highly recommend.
