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 had to wait a bit for a response to get into the building when we first arrived at 4:50pm, despite having contacted previously to say we would be there around 5pm. It was only a few minutes but was a bit unsettling.
Clean modern hotel room, nice bathroom, window with balcony overlooking the street and a view of Etna. Via Etnea on the Sunday night was bustling with people out for a promenade. Breakfast was good and our host (Francisco?) was helpful and friendly.

United KingdomIt was a little warm on some days / nights in the room and the air con wasn’t working or not switched on in general. Probably because it wasn’t hot by local standards but coming from 5-10c to 25c you aren’t acclimatised and feel the heat more. It wasn’t uncomfortable apart from one night so I didn’t bring it up to Anderson. I am 109% sure they’d sort that out for you if ask.
Very comfy bed, shower worked and the staff amazing. I have never seen a room cleaned so well and every day. The maid did a great job! Breakfast was fine too. Sound proof wise it did its best, nothing can protect you from the loud motorbikes that echo around the streets at night, so if you have trouble with noise bring earplugs wherever you stay!

HungaryWe came with a group of friends for 3 nights. The accommodation is spotlessly clean, the double bed is comfortable, perfect for relaxing after a long day of sightseeing. Everything is nearby, cafes, restaurants!Our host booked us a table in a cozy Sicilian restaurant and gave us the address of the car park house! This saved us a lot of time, and we thank you very much for your kindness!I highly recommend it to everyone!!

United StatesThe only thing we would suggest adding to the room is tissues.
We enjoyed our stay at 454 Etnea so much! The location was ideal for getting around Catania - walking distance from main attractions and shops. The room had everything we needed and breakfast was delightful with fresh coffee made to order. However the highlight of this location was the staff. Ander was so friendly and helpful. I have never raved about the cleaning of my room. The cleaning staff not only kept the room clean, but reorganized and anticipated our needs in ways we did not expect at all. Kudos to this lovely place, would definitely recommend for anyone traveling to Catania!

We enjoyed the delicious breakfast (coffee, bread, fruits, cakes, joghurt ... ), gluten-free breakfast was also available.
