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.).

ThailandNothing - perfect!
The breakfast was exceptional, the room was superb and the host was wonderful. I would highly recommend this location to anyone as while a little bit in the country side, this is part of the charm and it was very easy to get to the old town (10 minutes by car). One of the best B&B's my wife and I have had the pleasure of staying at. Very well done!!!

United StatesWe had a room with a spa. The spa took up a good deal of space and made it a bit challenging to maneuver to the bathroom. Not a show stopper
What a lovely retreat after days of touring. Extremely well situated and close to Ostuni and other small towns. The host was helpful, warm and friendly and her breakfast was homemade and delicious. Our room was the perfect blend of rustic and modern. We lived it and would highly recommend this property

United KingdomThe only issue (nothing to do with Andrea/the hotel) I would flag is that you need a car to stay here ideally. We had ordered a taxi twice to go into town (10 mins drive max) and have dinner and drinks but the taxi's charge 40 Euros each way, so 80 Euros each night. Very expensive!!!! Something to bear in mind when booking.
Relais Grottone is such an amazing hotel. We had the best and most relaxing holiday here, Andrea is a 10/10 host. She helped us with lots of queries and also makes a truly delicious breakfast. The pool area and grounds are perfectly kept and so relaxing. The hotel room was beautiful too, perfectly sized and the bed was really comfortable. We loved it, and will definitely be back!

United KingdomThe perfect place to relax! The pool and surrounding grounds are so beautiful and well kept. The room was very clean and comfortable with lots of lovely details. Breakfast was amazing with lots of home baked treats! We really enjoyed our stay here and wish we had stayed a couple of extra nights! The Masseria is in a great location, only a short 10 minute drive to Ostuni with lots of bars and restaurants. Andrea was incredibly welcoming and gave us some great restaurant recommendations. I would highly recommend staying here!

United KingdomNothing to dislike really. You need to drive if you want to go to bars and restaurants, but you'd expect that. Other than that, all good.
The pool is beautiful, the rooms are stylishly designed, the breakfast is lovely (although we couldn't eat all of it). The dogs are great and the hosts are super keen to help you have a great stay. Our little waitress was a superstar!

United StatesBreakfast was wonderful lots of homemade fruit and yogurt. Fresh squeezed juices. All served by the always smiling owner with a big assist from her 5 year old daughter. Relais Grottone is 7 minutes from the town of Ostuni but nestled in a quiet and secluded countryside setting. It is a small refurbished farmhouse with 7 rooms. My wife and I were very comfortable.

United KingdomRelais Grottone is well located in the Puglia countryside, close by to Ostuni to enjoy sightseeing and restaurants, and nice to also get away and enjoy the tranquility of the countryside and relax by the pool. Breakfast is delicious & healthy, all the staff very welcoming and made our stay extra special.
