Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThis beautiful B+B sums up all I love about Sicily… a warm welcome from charming Ignazio who told us the house has been in the same family for generations, and is decorated with many Sicilian antiques and artefacts. Lovely balconies festooned with geraniums where we had excellent breakfasts. Comfortable, quiet and very central, round the corner from the Duomo.All the staff were wonderful. We will return !

Perfect location, very central and pretty accommodation. Staff was very nice too. Also comes with a breakfast with a few options other than just pastries, which is not that easy to find. Good value for money for one night! The staff also allows guest to use a small fridge in the common area, which is very handy.

Great location in the heart of Ortegia, very friendly and helpful staff, comfortable beds, good value considering location. We would recommend this B&B as a place to stay if traveling as a group as we were.

United KingdomMore choice at breakfast, for example more fruit and cereal. Also a lack of black teabags and milk but plenty of fruit teas.
Breakfast was fine but not many options, staff were friendly, helpful and polite. The building and room were perfect for the very hot weather we experienced as it is round a shady courtyard. Very quiet considering we were right in the middle of Ortygia next to the Duomo and other attractions.

CanadaParking in the Ortygia section of Siracusa is a real problem and there is no parking close to the hotel. We were fortunate enough to find one (which we would NEVER have found had it not been for a local) for 20 E / night and only about a 10 minute walk from the hotel: Autorimessa di G. La Mesa, Via Dei Mergulensi, 14, 96100 Siracusa. (It is small, and you may be shocked to see cars parked at 45 degree angles to the ground, but the staff are very accommodating.)
What a brilliant little hotel. It would be hard to get closer to the centre of Siracusa than this fashionable place. The members of the staff were wonderful and extremely helpful in every way. The breakfast served was also excellent.
