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.).

GermanySituated on a very steep road with parking on a 100m distance.
Nice property with very clean rooms, excellent breakfast and really friendly service. It’s near to Taormina and the property offers free usage of the beach facilities at beautiful pirata beach.

Canadacement yard in front of our balcony was a bit unsightly; you also need a car to reach Taormina. Would be nice to include a beach voucher in price.
Lovely sea view from the eating area; rooms were very clean and tastefully decorated. overall we had a nice and comfortable stay.

AustraliaThe unit was accessible by walking up 20 steep steps to a rather small (18m2) room with a queen size bed. We were fortunate that the hosts assisted us by carrying our suitcases, etc up the steps for which we were truly grateful. However, the room was not really large enough to also accommodate our two large suitcases. (No Lift available) (Our room (102) was more comparable to a hotel room than a unit, except for the large size of the separate bathroom and toilet. We booked what we thought was a double room. In reality it was a single room . . . therefore. Please define a Double Room There was only one chair and a small table in the room which contained an electric kettle, no toaster while there were another two chairs and a small shelf on the balcony. The unit also contained a small fridge which was only large enough for a few essential items with the temp. being not sufficiently low and non – adjustable. The unit simply lacked bench space to put anything. As an example, I had my laptop located on top of my suitcase in order to make these comments. It is worth noting that the unit next door had a larger room with more furniture, etc to place things however, the bathroom was smaller . . definitely more preferable. The other slightly irritating thing was that during the bright sunshine and heat of the day, the host did not put out, what appeared to be an electrically operated awning that would have provided some shade from the bright sun. The breakfast was simple “ continental “ at best (No buffet provided). Rating: 7/10
Belle Vista was located close the town of Giardini Naxos, at the end of a steep road which provided great views of the waterfront and beaches of Taormina. Free Parking was available outside the property. It was the great views of the bay ( minus the railway yards) that was the major attraction of staying at this property. The lower town of Giardini Naxos had few shops and supermarkets. You will need a car to drive to the Cable Car in Giardini Naxos (Cost: 10 Euros/adult return) in order to reach the town of Taormina, higher up the mountain, where most of the restaurants, cafes and shops were located.

CanadaI wish it was clearly stated that the distance from BellaVista to Taormina centre is quite far and difficult to walk. When we saw 2.2km we figured it was easily walkable. It is NOT. We luckily found buses and taxi’s (on our own) but it would have been nice if the host put out some options for us upon arrival before we had to inquire about it. Also, there was an ant problem from the moment we arrived. It was somewhat uncomfortable knowing they were crawling on you in the bathroom and bedroom.
The view is beautiful. The breakfast was amazing. The host was kind.

United StatesWhen it states that it is so many feet from the 'center of Taormina', it is only if you don't mind hiking UP 500-800 FEET to get to Taormina center. The alternative path for us was a rental car which took about a 15-20 minute drive through windy roads, and then look for parking. This didn't bother me but may be of concern to many people. With that said, there is yet another alternate path UP by driving about 5 minutes to the cable car parking (pay to park) and spend 3 Euros per person each way to take the cable car UP/DOWN to/from Taormina.
This is actually not a 'hotel' - it's more like renting a room in an AirBnB but the owner/manager and service lady were very nice and helpful.

ArgentinaThe location is quite ok, Its required from you to walk uphill and its not the most convenient thing to do at the end of the night. Farthemore the breakfast was very poor. There is no one in the apartments that can answer our needs.
The view was amazing, the residentsl were very beautiful.

Czech RepublicThe location of the apartment is below the centre of Taormina. You have to go 30 minutes uphill to get to the centre. Near the appartment there is no restaurants etc. Also I do not like if the staff is looking at you while you eat during the breakfast and observe what you eat. It was not pleasantly.
The appartment is clean and comfortable. During the cleaning the staff also touched my things and put them on other place. This is unacceptable for me. I will not go there anymore.
