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 StatesLo Stemma Luxury is a quaint and beautiful boutique hotel. My husband and I stayed here one night. We were early, but upon arrival the lovely receptionist named Camila greeted us and said the room was ready. She explained everything brilliantly and gave us our keys. The room was spacious, comfortable, and very modern. There was great WiFi throughout the hotel. The hotel is in an old castle and beautifully decorated to fit the period, but with modern touches. Breakfast was wonderful. Be sure to look up at the ceilings, as they are hand painted and hand decorated. We highly recommend this beautiful hotel.

ItalyThe only thing I can think of is the layer of dust on the black tile shelf in the bathroom and the fact that after unlocking the door, you had to literally force it with the shoulder because the door wouldn’t open easily.
Amazing, beautiful hotel, situated in a lovely restructured palace, with a fantastic position for visiting Sassi by foot. Public parking is also super close. Our special compliments go the decorative solutions inside the palace and the fantastic hotel perfume. The front staff was beyond helpful and gave us great recommendations for restaurants and itineraries. The service in general was impeccable. The room was very comfortable, the bed and linens were great, the bathroom- comfortably sized, with small toiletries and slippers provided. We’ve also had a nice breakfast. Would absolutely recommend it to anyone and definitely hope to come back!

United KingdomNot much :) Just be aware that the hotel is in the limited traffic zone, so you can only reach it by car for the check-in and check-out. It wasn't a problem at all for us, though, just something to be aware.
Very big and comfortable room, the bed was huge and great for a restful sleep. The hotel is located at the top of the Sassi, the beautiful historical centre, making it really easy to reach the most beautiful landmarks of the town by foot. The staff are really really nice, everyone is so kind and helpful, particularly Rocco. Beautiful terrace with an amazing view, highly recommended for your breakfast in the morning if the weather permits it. I particularly loved that there are only 9 rooms, so your stay will feel even more premium.

New ZealandRoom look across a alley to a wall, so room dark. Annoying every time you left having to take out key card, so nothing charged while gone. And AC off so return to a hot room.
Large room, great comfortable bed, very clean, nice linen. Smallish bathroom. Very helpful staff. Beautiful place on terrace for breakfast looking over Matera. 5mins walk to the town, restaurants & cafes. Strong wifi. Good breakfast included

ItalyUsually I find a few faults with most hotels but this hotel is faultless
I stayed in 5 **** hotels in Puglia the last 8 days and Lo Stemma is the best one I stayed in, it is finished to a very high standard and it still has that smell of a new hotel.All the staff were very helpful and polite, there is not one negative thing I can say about it, I will definitely use it again and highly recommend it 💯
