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 KingdomProximity to night club meant loud music on Friday and Saturday nights. This is not the fault of the property but just something to consider when staying in Ortigia.
Great location by the sea, new and very clean rooms. Charming decor, and very welcoming staff who were always available to answer questions and provide services and recommendations for what to see and do in Siracusa.

United KingdomWe found the bed comfortable but the memory foam pillows were not, for us. We did request softer pillows, however, extra of the same style of pillow was provided - I do recommend they have an alternative to offer.
Really happy with our ground floor apt. The comfortable outdoor lounge chairs and dining table, for our exclusive use, was a particular bonus. Really appreciated the extra touches such as milk and juice in the fridge and Nespresso milk frother, in addition to coffee machine. Staff could not have been more helpful or pleasant - lovely team. I do recommend booking the valet parking ahead of your stay - 30 Euro a night is not cheap, but worth it for the convenience.

The location was fantastic!! We could walk out on the terrace and were right on the water. An accordion player played at night, but in the room you heard nothing. Plush towels, water and juice in the fridge. And the staff was amazing! Great suggestions for meals. Patient beyond anything when we got lost. Would recommend

See view was great. Nicely furbished, historical building but newly renovated. Friendly staff.

United KingdomIt's probably about time to update the shower unit - but the supply of hot water is very good.
Alfeo is a very pretty apartment with stunning views of the sea. The bed is comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped and the staff are delightful. This was our second visit to the Palazzo Alfeo and we would never stay anywhere else. It's very convenient for all the sights and great cafes and restaurants.
