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...).

SingaporeIf there is only 1 thing, it is the need to carry the luggage up the steps. As we travelled all the way from Singapore, and this being just one of the locations we were going to, we had huge luggages. I think this is expected with all the buildings in Stresa. Giuliano was great though, helping to take some of the luggages up for us too.
The host, Giuliano was great. He went above and beyond to pick us up from the Stresa station as there was no taxi available. Because we were a group of 4 adults and 1 child with 4 big luggages, he even had to make 2 trips. Overall the place was great.

AustraliaNothing. Outstanding place.
The greeting was warm, the location in the centre of Stresa was fabulous and a great base for exploring beautiful Lake Maggiore and further afield to Lake Orta. Close to both ferry and bus. Apartment was spacious and airy, lovely bathroom and excellent luggage storage that kept floor space clear. Postioned above a nice restaurant but still quiet. The delightful balcony, both front and back, was a real highlight allowing for private aperitif or dinner with view and atmosphere. Would come back - again and again.

United KingdomThis is a lovely apartment in a great location. You are less than 5 minutes walk from the ferry terminal, a bus stop, a supermarket, cafes, bars, restaurants and shops. The apartment itself is great. Everything is clean, well maintained and all the basics are provided including good quality bedding and towels. The bed folds away but it's a king size, comfortable mattress and we actually left it down during our stay as there is plenty of room. The terrace is great, a sun trap but a large parasol is provided. Giuliano is a fantastic host. he really wants to make sure everything is done for you to be able to have a good holiday. We would love to return.

United StatesNothing...it was all just perfect!
The apartment is lovely, spotlessly clean and comfortable! I location is ideal...you literally walk out the door into the heart of everything. It's quiet as well. Both the bedrooms have air conditioning so you can climate control for your comfort. It's also incredible to have this much space, and a 2 bedroom 2 bath with both having complete privacy...amazing. Giuliano was an exceptional host. Very communicative, flexible, and incredibly helpful in supporting me to figure out the area and transportation back to MXP. I absolutely would recommend this apartment and will definitely stay there again when I return. Thank you Giuliano for everything!!

Excellent location within minutes from ferries and hop-on hop-off boats. The apartment is located in the centre of the old town amidst restaurants, cafes, shops, wine bars, etc. The host was wonderful- extremely helpful and kind. The apartment was immaculate and very comfortable. There is a little balcony at the front and the rear of the apartment.

United StatesThis property is exceptional! The host, Guiliano, is kind, attentive and takes great pride in his property. He was helpful, informative and such a pleasure to work with. This apartment could not be in a better location. It is minutes from the ferry dock and close to excellent restaurants and gelato shops. It was clean, spacious and very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for an amazing stay, Guiliano, we appreciate all you did for us.

United StatesThe location of the apartment is perfect for exploring without a car. It is accessible by train (although the train stopped in Arona due to track repair) and bus from airport. The ferries to the islands and other stops are a stone's throw from the apartment. Our apartment, Mimosa, was on the second floor. It was clean, light, airy with a comfortable bed and fabulous bathroom! We sat outside on the small back balcony in the late afternoon after a day of exploring with a beer and glass of wine and listened to the hustle and bustle of tourists below. Giuliano was friendly with an easy manner and accommodating letting us store our luggage in the apt hours before check in. We like to cook and I would have liked sharper knives, a wooden cutting board, a newer fry/saute pan and a some simple basics in the kitchen for our stay. Aside from that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and I would highly recommend the apartment!
