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.).

FranceThe main door of the room is not well isolated: you hear all the noise coming from the corridor. Bring earplugs to sleep! The other negative point was the parking: they don't have parking. They have a partnership with a local private parking at 100 meters. I advise you to pay by card (not cash) and to keep the proof of payment. Because several persons of the parking only speak Italian and the cash payment is more difficult to prove in case of trouble.
The room was comfortable and the staff cleaned it everyday correctly. The wifi is free. This hotel is located on the main street of Catania: very practical to go to monuments by walking. The breakfast was excellent: they are proposing local meals (like pistachio pie, etc).

The location was perfect. Right in the middle of the main Etnea street with restaurants right under the property. Breakfast was also good.

France24 hour checkin / reception would have been great. The only minor quibble would be about carrying the luggage up the stairs and handling the keys and the keypads in the darkness. Overall it was great stay.
Very conveniently located near the historic centre, The buffet breakfast was an overload of local sweets and the host was extremely courteous. The room was very spacious and overlooks the beautiful Parco Maestranze. A walk up the park gives a distant but clear view of summit of Mount Etna.

SpainProbably some additional information might be handy if you come by car, like surrounding areas where you can leave your car and not to be very expensive. In our case we were lucky and we could park it on the street and pay little money, but it can easily become very expensive.
This was a very good stay in Catania. It´s close to the historical center but not in it, so ideal if you come by car. The rooms are spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Would definitely be my choice if I ever need to come back to Catania. The breakfast was a buffet with gluten-free options.

Germanynothing to complain about Just know that there is no lift, narrow stairs to the 1st floor, breakfast room on the 2nd floor.
The room absolutely corresponded to the photos, spacious, bed comfortable; breakfast extensive for Italy: 3 different types of toast, various jams, sausages and cheese, some vegetables and fruit, boiled eggs, the rest = the majority are sweet foods, from cornetto to mostly 3 - 4 cakes, various panettoni at Christmas time; coffee in variations and espresso; bus station in front of the hotel (incl. Alibus - unlike what is shown on google maps, you can take the Alibus directly to the hotel!); nice restaurants around
