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.).

PolandDoor was dragging and was hard to close/open. I reported it and no one came to check/fix. Very humid inside and smell of mold. We had to have window open all the time, but considering it's very old building I understand.
Beautiful place and interesting experience out of town. Friendly staff.

The grounds were so beautiful and the pool area was truly stunning. We ate dinner at the hotel too which was delicious.

United KingdomThe lighting in the dining room in the evenings was WAY too bright. The dining room was not very atmospheric. No candles, etc, which spoils the dining experience We stayed for a week and, although the food was excellent, the menu didn't change during our stay, so we were bored with the food and didn't like the dining room ambience in any case. The bar area is beautiful, but there were not enough staff, seating areas to enjoy it fully. The lunch options were meagre and not much choice. The hotel needs to do more on the food front. It is in a beautiful, quiet location and needs to provide a wider choice of food and drink.
Excellent Italian breakfast. Beautiful grounds, building, surroundings and pool and outside dining area all excellent. Staff were lovely.

United KingdomRestaurant needed more ambiance. We had dinner there first night and whilst the food was delicious there was no atmosphere. Only us and one other couple were dining and the lights were on full and we were sat by the door next to a high chair.
Beautifully restored masseria with a luxurious feel to the rooms. Beautiful pool area.

United KingdomReally the only thing I can comment on is that they have two types of Junior Suite rooms, which cost the same but look very different. The bigger one was occupied when we got there, so we got the smaller one - still lovely, but just a bit misleading.
Absolutely amazing property, beautiful grounds and room. Close to Ostuni as well (10-15 mins driving), so really convenient.

This place is an absolute dream. It’s like a Italian movie set. Everything is perfect. Staff are incredible, the pool area is like nothing you could imagine, food is amazing, rooms are immaculate and spacious…. Breathtaking scenery everywhere! Location is ideal, perfectly remote but still only 10 mins from the busy Ostuni centre. This is an incredible place and somewhere we will remember forever.

AustraliaWe absolutely loved our stay at Masseria Santo Scalone. Beautiful property with a swimming pool. Great location. What can we say about the staff ….. they were fantastic. They all went above and beyond to help us, provide information and arrange transfers and restaurant reservations. We were always greeted with a smile and great service. We were sad to leave. Highly recommend this property.
