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.).

United KingdomWe immensely enjoyed our stay at this accommodation and do not regret choosing it; but I would not stay here again. The accommodation is located at the top of a mountain and is fairly isolated/ disconnected from the main more vibrant centre of Taormina. It takes 12-15minutes to drive up to the hotel on desolate winding countryside road. The drive down is slightly faster (10minutes), but it takes 30minutes to drive to the main Taormina centre or Giardini Naxos and finding parking is not easy. You will need to rent a car to drive to and from anywhere unless you are doing a couple’s retreat and just want to spend time soaking in the ambience and scenery at the hotel. if you spend an extra €300 (the price of renting a car for your stay) you can probably find a 4star hotel closer to Taormina centre and walk to most places. The whole area is very steep and hilly and not very pedestrianised but this is part of its charm. Anyways, this is not a criticism of the hotel and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience there- including driving up and down the scary mountain roads 3-4 times on a daily basis, but it can get quite tiring. Picking your hotel just comes down to your priorities, preferences. we found the hotel to be child- friendly as well.
Hotel is atop a mountain approximately 500m above sea level. Lovely staff, nice swimming pool and jacuzzi with amazing background scenery of the mountainous Taormina region of Sicily. You also get amazing views of the neighbouring Giardini Naxos beach and even an unobstructed view of Mount Etna. Lovely continental breakfast every morning. Room was good size with kitchenette, porch area and they even provided an extra cot bed as the bed was not big enough for the three of us (room was right size for 2adults and a small child)

SwitzerlandOne suggestion: It would be helpful if there were some handy facilities in the bathroom, for example any small bowl for the soap next to the sink, a cup/glass for the toothbrushes and a holder for shampoo/soap in the shower.
It's worth driving the curvy way up to this lovely B&B. A perfect place to relax with great view and a beautiful, clean swimming pool and even a jacuzzi. Staff is very friendly and does everything to make your stay a pleasant one. Rooms are spacious, clean and with new, well-working aircon.

MaltaThe whole experience was very good so we have nothing negative to say about it, it would be lovely if there were some more food options available, so that if you do not feelike going to the centre you may eat something there, they do offer a few light meals though and they were delicious too.
The staff are all lovely, so kind and pleasant, always a pleasure to speak to them, Very considerate and helpful. The road to get there is tricky, but the views and the peaceful surroundings are absolutely worth the drive up The pool area was lovely and the quality of the pool water was superb. Our stay was for 3 nights, we Would definitely re visit and spend a few more days there next time

This is a very remarkable place to stay. The view is amazing. Nice pool and bar (open only till 8). Very good breakfast. Large room, nice balcony with view - you can enjoy the wonderful sunrise over Taormina. We really enjoyed the road up to this place. If you are an experienced driver you will not have problem to get there - we even did it at night :)
