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.).

AustriaWe liked all about Il Palagione. The view, the garden, the spacious and newly renovated room and bathroom and the nice staff. We also tried the different kind of wines and took some bottles with us. We got engaged in their garden, so Il Palagione will always have a special place in our heart and we'll definitely come back!

SlovakiaThe WiFi connection didn't work very well ( maybe because of bad weather conditions as well)
The view is exactly what you are looking for when visiting Tuscany. The decoration of the hotel and the room were beautiful and cozy. Breakfast was extraordinary, everything fresh and quite big selection for all tastes. Location is very convenient to travel around the region. Owners are very friendly and hospitable to explain you and guide thru the area, give you advice and tips. Room and bathroom were big and comfortable.

This accommodation was beautiful! And in a very good location nestled amongst rolling vineyards. The owner gave us MANY amazing recommendations for the area surrounding. We had a car and I’d recommend this is the easiest way to experience Tuscany. There are two restaurants within 1km of the property. Breakfast was incredible!!!

The ancient farmhouse is set in beautiful countryside. Our room was spacious, modern and clean, the water pressure in the shower excellent. Owners of the property, Giorgio and his family are fantastic hosts, very kind and attentive, always smiling and willing to help. Breakfast was very tasty, with home-made cakes, cheese, salumi and excellent coffee. We also enjoyed very much the wine tasting with Gregorio.

United KingdomNothing - it was perfect.
The room was beautiful, clean, and comfortable with a brilliant bathroom. The breakfast was fantastic with amazing cakes made by one of the owners - she was amazing! The location was perfect for Volterra and San Gimignano. I could not recommend this place more highly. They could be charging double and it would still feel like good value for money. I would highly recommend doing a wine tasting of their wines made from the surrounding vineyards which we had a beautiful view of from our bedroom.
