How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe receptionist was very nice and helpful, spoke English and French very well. Room was spotless, wonderful to see a large ceiling fan as well as air con. Bed super comfortable. Breakfast was excellent, and the whole hotel seemed as though it had just been re furbished. Absolutely spotlessly clean.
Possibly a tray with things to make a coffee but that is all.

Be aware: no elevator (might be an issue when you are older and carrying a lot of bags). One bed light did not work, no small fridge

Verified reviewWe stayed at Hotel Calypso and were very pleased with its excellent location—just a short walk from the train station, which made it very convenient for traveling around. We also found free parking just 30 meters from the hotel on the white-marked spots, which was a big plus. The room and the entire hotel were very clean, and housekeeping did a great job. Towels were changed almost daily, which we really appreciated.
The breakfast was very minimal, almost non-existent. If breakfast is important to you, this might be a downside. Overall, a good stay thanks to the location and cleanliness. Just don’t expect much from the breakfast.

Verified reviewThe whole staff were very helpful and the room and bed comfortable. The shower was one of the best I’ve ever experienced in an hotel (and I used to be in the bathroom business).
There was nothing that displeased us.

Verified reviewI booked a room for my daughter and some friends who were traveling through Europe by train. They needed to spend the night in Ventimiglia to wait for the early morning train. They were very kind to them; they felt cared for, and they prepared a hearty breakfast to take with them. Thank you so much. Grazie mille.
Todo muy bien!

Verified reviewWe have visited a few times now, and the location is perfect. Not far from the train station (easy to walk) and literally around the corner from the famous Friday Market (which seems to get bigger every visit!), and of course the sea front. The rooms are exceptionally clean, breakfast is great and the staff are charming.
Thanks, it's always a pleasure to welcome you Elisa hotel staff
