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 StatesIt’s an older hotel and it feels dated. But it was clean and accommodations were more than adequate for a short stay. It does not have parking, but that is typical of many hotels who have great locations in historic cities. The hotel staff were very helpful in helping us find parking.
Location was awesome for visiting Cortona. Also the hotel itself offers fantastic views from its location just outside the city walls. It was the best value for a hotel we had during our two weeks of travel through Italy.

Hotel San Luca is an older hotel but it is beautiful with the most amazing location in Cortona. The view from their terrace is just stunning. Our room was small but comfortable and very clean. The breakfast provided was very good. There is also parking at the front of the hotel and that was a real bonus. I would definitely stay there again.

FinlandI arrived by bus from the train station. My bus took me to Piazza Mercato and the walk to the hotel was quite hard, uphill with the luggage. There is a bus stop right next to the hotel on Piazza Garibaldi so if possible take a bus there.
A comfortable hotel in a stunning location with amazing views to the valley. The room was maybe a bit dated in style but it was really comfortable, clean and quiet, and I had a balcony with a marvellous view. The breakfast was fine, and again the view! The restaurant Tonnini next to the hotel was very good has an amazing terrace. Highly recommended. The staff was really friendly. The hotel is right next to the historic centre so it's very easy to walk anywhere. There is a nice park next to the hotel, with a playground for children. All and all, I highly recommend this hotel.

United KingdomThe furnishings in the bedroom could do with updating. Parking at the hotel was €15 per night. Some free parking was available on the roads leading to the hotel but it was often difficult to secure a space and the walk to the hotel from these spaces was steep.
The staff were all friendly and pleasant and went out of their way to help you. The communal areas were beautifully furnished and exceptionally clean. The restaurant served good quality food with an emphasis on local cuisine. Breakfast provided a good choice of food items. Bedrooms were spotlessly clean. Location of hotel in relation the town was excellent .

BelgiumI paid for an upgrade to have a balcony and view however when I was given my room (comfort) the balcony was on the bottom floor and there was no view. The room didn't look anything like the pictures. Thankfully, when I complained, I was upgraded to a superior room with a view but no balcony. This room was much better and made them stay worth it. I would advice not to pick to basic or comfort room as there is a big difference. The gym was also out of use which was a shame.
Very good breakfast and friendly staff. The superior room is very good.

AustraliaStaff directing us to parking should always warn that the parking meters take only coins - no credit cards - before sending us down. Without coins (almost 2 euro an hour), the car is illegally parked. Coins are not easy to get - shops do not give them out readily. Thank you for taking this on board for future guests
