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.).

Amazing hotel, by far our best one in our 23 hotel trip through Italy. I recommend to stay here for sure. Amazing staff, very friendly and close, very good attitude. The hotel is beautiful, a true Matera experience. The SPA is delightful and very relaxing. The rooms are nice and the bed is very comfortable.

United StatesThree issues: Bottom line these issues should not exist at the quality & cost of this hotel. 1 Confusion on cost of using spa. Spa staff told us clearly it was 24 euros per person or 48 euros for 2. However, at check-out we were charge 40 Euros per person or 80 euros total. Big difference for a glorified hot tub. 2 Parking is an issue for 2 reasons, first, while in a tight congested area it is NOT a totally restricted area & therefor, we could have driven up to the Hotel & checked in at which time the Hotel could have taken our car & parked it. However, the Hotel indicated that we needed to park at a parking facility outside the Citi Storica which cost 20 euros per day & 10 Euros for transfer to & from the Hotel. Very inconvenient considering the cost & quality level of the Hotel. We visited several quality hotels in similar historic centers and each time the Hotel took our car & parked it for us. Only 1 other time where we charged for this service. Secondly the information on the parking from the Hotel, which we had to locate ourselves, gave the address as XXSepembre 7-1. Unfortunately, GPS reads that as 71 & misdirected us until we put simply 7 & as the address. That worked.
Outstanding unique facilities & accommodations. Impressive suite . Location perfect.

The staff at the front desk were extremely kind and helpful. Didn't hurt that they were beautiful as well ;)

RomaniaIt does not have parking. You need to chose form different options when it comes to where to leave the car and arrive at the hotel. The hotel can guide you where to park.
It is a very nice experience to spend a few nights in a luxurious cave. The room is clean and very special. SPA is incredible very relaxing. The breakfast was very good with a lot of options. Stuff very friendly and professional.

RomaniaDue to the fact that the room was cave based, with rock walls, as an alergic person you can feel the specific umidity and mold smell in the room. Though, windows can be opened to refresh a bit. An extra 100 eur was required for a 3 years old per night.
Location is beautiful, in the heart of Matera Sassi.

SwedenIt doesn’t feel as old and possibly authentic as Il Palazzotto or Corte Pietro so I’d combine a stay at one of these two if you can.
Five star ⭐️ luxury! What a room! Even though we always go for the smallest room to save money, this room was anything but small. It felt luxurious and elegant and was a real experience. The cave spa was an experience not to be missed. This was one of three cave hotels we stayed in during our four nights in Matera, and the night here was as magical as the other two, but this one with opulence! The perfect location and road too if you ask us ;).
