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.).

FranceWe really enjoyed our stay at Barbara’s Villa in beautiful Lucca. She was an amazing host - welcomed us warmly with sparkling wine upon check-in and cooked us fresh delicious eggs for breakfast. She was generous with her advice and guidance for things to do in Lucca and even secured us a reservation at a delicious restaurant. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this homely cosy place in Tuscany. Grazie Mille :)

Classical perfumed and well decorated room with high levels of hygiene control. Impeccable breakfast and warm reception. Everything was perfect in the minimum details. Couldn’t be better.

The hotel is stunning, the rooms gorgeous and spacious, the pool and grounds are immaculate and the breakfast was amazing. The welcome addition of bikes and a cute dog was the icing on the cake! The team couldn’t do enough for my parents and they didn’t want to leave, they’re already talking about coming back.

CanadaInsufficient signage to find the Villa. Hard to stop on narrow, winding road once located. But, plenty of parking once inside gates.
Unique, restored Villa with amazing grounds around the villa, including a pool ( not heated) and multiple sitting areas. Very exclusive ambiance residence with only 12 rooms.

United KingdomThis is a personal choice that is hard to please everyone. We prefer a firm mattress and ours were a bit softer than we like but still managed to sleep “like a baby”
This is a family run operation and it shows in the warmth of the welcome you receive and attention to your comfort. The garden and pool area were relaxing and you could have drinks and light meals served when requested. Our host, Barbara, made excellent recommendations for local restaurants. We chose a location that was outside the city walls to ensure it was a quiet area and it is!

A beautiful house a few minutes away from Lucca. Barbara and her family were really welcoming and they made everything possible to make our stay nice. The Royal Suite is really fantastic (thanks for the upgrade). It’s a privilege to discover Tuscany from an ancient house (1712), beautifully refurbished and decorated. Really quiet, great breakfast.

United StatesSince it is located outside Lucca we needed a taxi to get into town and to the wedding we were attending. Taxi’s are quite difficult to find in this area.
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. The owners went out of their way to make our stay special. The rooms are lovely with comfortable beds and beautifully decorated. The gardens are so pretty and we enjoyed relaxing by the pool under the umbrellas or in a shaded spot. We enjoyed our breakfast in the garden every morning under the arbor which included a wide selection of foods from their buffet as well as a cooked breakfast. Would definitely stay again if we returned to this area.

IndonesiaTo say that we liked the property is to say nothing. We LOVED it. Owned by the beautiful family this place is very well run and managed. Everyone in the family is involved in making guests happy and enjoy their stay. It does feel they put their hearts into creating beautiful and cozy atmosphere. The rooms were super clean and beds were comfortable. We regretted we stayed only for one night here. Barbara, the owner, provided lots of info on where to do for sightseeing. Private villa Reale was the best highlight of our trip. Thank you thank you thank you

RomaniaOur expectations were high based on the reviews we saw before making our reservation but they were blown up in the brief time we spent at Villa La Preziosa. The room had all we needed and the central cooling system created the optimal temperature without the noise that AC units make. The hosts were amazing, making a great time spent there even better. I only wish we'd spend more time here, but we will definitely come back.

SwedenThe owners take really good care of this place, they put a lot of energy and attention to each and every detail. And one can feel this. Great breakfast, amazing rooms, fresh water daily, also really good water pressure in the bathroom - for me it’s important as I have long hair and want to wash my hair once/twice a week. The bathrooms were really nice and elegant I also liked the rooms size, the mattreses and pillows quality and the central ventilation system (we could set it at the temp we wished for and it did not blow air like individual AC systems so we could sleep with cool air). Loved the pool, even if it seemed small, it was more than enough.

DenmarkIt's a wonderful place. 😊 The larger rooms were amazing and the smaller one as well. But If I should say anything that could be improved, then I would have loved to have a couple of creaks on the wall, in the little room my husband and I stayed in, just because the space was so compressed and it would have been nice to be able to hang a bag or housecoat. But really no big deal. All on all it was a wonderful place ☺️
I liked everything. The whole atmosphere was so nice, and all the little details around the house and garden really made a difference. The food and service was great. All in all it was a pleasure to stay at Villa La Prezioza 🙏🌺😊 And we will highly recommend it to everyone.
