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.).

NetherlandsThe serre is a very nice place to have dinner or lunch. All the staff were most helpful and friendly. The rooms were spacious and beautiful. We also very much enjoyed the pool and garden. We were planning on staying only one day, but ended up booking a day extra and are planning on coming back in the future!

IrelandThe hotel, food and grounds were beautiful but what really made our holiday special was the staff. Everyone made us feel so at home and made a real effort to befriend our kids, which really helped us relax as we were worried that the hotel wouldn’t be child friendly (our kids are 3 and 1 years old) Such an amazing stay, we’ll definitely come back, thanks.

United KingdomNothing to dislike, it was perfect.
A lovely hotel, perfectly located within a short drive of Lucca and Pisa. We had a lovely comfortable room and enjoyed dining at the restaurant in the evening. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast buffet offered a range of choices. We stayed 2 nights, the perfect end to our road tour of Tuscany.

NetherlandsNot very suitable for the solo traveler without a car. Yes it’s reachable by bus (bit cumbersome and hazardous prone) or taxi (costs not clear, paid between €17 and €25 per ride - to Lucca). No lunch provided in low season, Tuesday’s restaurant closed. Not safe to walk to grocery store or bakery.
Beautiful, wonderful garden. Room with plenty of space. Great roomy shower and excellent food (both breakfast and dinner). Staff very friendly and helpful, especially the people in the restaurant.

United KingdomA small criticism but there was only one reception area, which included reception and the bar. As a result there was nowhere really to have a drink in the evening. A separate small reception room for the bar or relaxing would have been perfect Also swimming pool towels were the same colour as room towels.
We spent a week at Villa San Michele. Our room was great with a balcony and spacious bathroom. Lots of storage and a mini fridge. Quiet location and superb 25m swimming pool. The staff were welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was very good with lots of choice. We had a couple of lunches which were delicious. We chose not to dine as preferred to go into Lucca. 10 minutes by car/ taxi to Lucca.

GermanyThe room itself was a little small
The whole staff was very friendly and supportive at any time. The hotel itself lies within a beautiful environment as it is located within the nature of Lucca. The best is the outdoor pool surrounded by olive trees. I can also recommend to have dinner at the restaurant, the food and service was superb. We also rented a Vespa to have a unique experience in the Toscana region.

United KingdomThe bedroom was modestly sized, with a double bed that was actually two singles pushed together, resulting in an uncomfortable gap during the night. While the restaurant exuded charm, its open-air roof and glazed sides left our entire party susceptible to bad insect bites throughout our two-night stay.
The premises boasted an array of amenities, among them a splendid outdoor swimming pool.

United KingdomCold food we'd waited an hour for.
Beautiful location with a brand new restaurant, our bathroom looked new too as were the fluffy towels. Our toom was a little old fashioned though and the glass topped unit in the wardrobe hadn't been dusted, it was otherwise clean. Food was lovely but service was slow, I know its the Italian way but we sat down at 7.30pm and it was almost 11.00pm by the time we were offered desserts. Our piatti secondi were room temperature, but very tasty. Staff were excellent throughout. So close to a 10/10 and I think they'll get there.
