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.).

Exceptional hotel, highest level of hospitality. Everything was above our expectations - comfortable, clean rooms, fantastic breakfast, friendly and very helpful staff. And all this in beautiful Cortona! Like in many medieval towns there is a shortage of parking places, but the personnel of the hotel will effectively help you to park your car.

United StatesNothing comes to mind, it was a beautiful setting hosted by the kindest staff
Homemade breakfast with eggs and croque monsieurs was outstanding! The room was spacious and comfortable with the prettiest view of the countryside. What stood out most was the friendliness of the staff even from our first greeting. They helped us make phone calls since we only spoke minimal Italian. They went above and beyond helping us get to the train station when we had an early departure…actually driving us themselves. Everything about our stay exceeded our expectations. We will be back! Thank you for a beautiful stay and for smoothing the bumps of travel!

PortugalNothing in particular, maybe the few parking spots would be a challenge for some but I didn't have a car with me therefore it was not an issue for me and they have a nearby parking as a solution.
I enjoyed the comfort, the decor, the little treats such as the tea time, the candies in the bedroom, the kindness of of driving me back and forth to the train station, the delicious breakfast, the staff is so attentive.

IsraelThere is nothing to fault.
Villa Marsili is a dream! The hotel is a boutique hotel and it is truly from a different world. The hotel itself is a historical villa which is classical and beautifully decorated throughout with antique furniture. The breakfast is simply the best and by far one of the tastiest breakfasts I have ever eaten in a hotel. (I have traveled extensively). I recommend trying the delicious delicacies which their chef prepares. They are amazing! Our room was extremely comfortable and had a fabulous shower with a great pressure. The staff there are so friendly and helpful. They take time to explain and tell you where to go. In the late evening, they have this wonderful Tuscan tradition of serving Vin Santo and cantucci as well as other biscotti. It’s just a lovely touch before you turn in for the night. I definitely recommend staying at Villa Marsali it is wonderful!

United KingdomThis is such a charming hotel that gave us a truly warm Tuscan welcome. A beautiful villa that we were encouraged to treat as our home. All the staff were so friendly and very helpful, particularly with recommending restaurants and cellar tours. The breakfasts were excellent and the location is a short stroll into the town. We loved everything about it.

AustraliaNothing about the property, my stay was delightful. The only negative was that I could only stay at Villa Marsili for one night!
Beautiful, elegant room decorated with traditional Italian style. My view onto the countryside was lovely. The staff were exceptionally helpful, organising taxis to/from the railway station and directing me to restaurants offering vegetarian options. The highlights, however, were the sensational buffet breakfast, the evening aperitivi served with delicious pre-dinner snacks, and the later evening sweet treats and vin santo available to enjoy in the bar or one's room. A short walk to the historic centre of this stunning town, made famous by Frances Mayes in her novel Under the Tuscan Sun.

SwitzerlandIt was a bit too warm during the night, the digital thermostat was a bit confusing.
The breakfast has many local tuscan home made pies and specials. It also includes brunch options which are very intricate. There is also a small buffet in the evening or during the day with many homemade special cookies. The staff was very attentive and kind, every detail was being considered. The room had a great view over the tuscan hills. Location is a short walk to center.
