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 Hotel Iris is a family owned and operated hotel. It is in the National Park and has beautiful views. It feels more like a lodge than a hotel, very fitting in this park environment. The rooms were updated and handled our large group very well. The staff is remarkable. They take a real interest in you and treat you like family. The food at their restaurant from the included breakfast which was the best we had on our trip, to the delightful dinner we enjoyed were superb. They accommodated all of our needs. The first night we arrived late at night and needed dinner and the owner got in his car and drove us to a restaurant that was open and the meal was delightful. We needed to have documents printed out and the staff stayed up late to help us meet our needs. I can't say enough good things about the Hotel Iris. We look forward to returning one day!

It is a great joy to know that you enjoyed the atmosphere of our hotel, the comfort of our rooms, and the quality of our cuisine.

Verified reviewVery friendly helpful and cheerful staff. Nice room with comfortable bed. Good breakfast. Stylish hotel with nice outdoor seating area at front. Well maintained gardens. Swimming pool. Very pleasant bar area. Plenty of covered parking at rear.. Everything about the place was saying well managed. Plenty of facilities in nearby town centre
A little bit far from town - 15 minutes or so on foot but a little more for me as still recovering from a recent broken leg. I managed nevertheless without it marring our stay which was excellent A1! Disappointed it was a bit too cold to try the pool as it looked fantastic
Dear Guest, Thank you very much for your kind and detailed review. We are truly delighted to know that you appreciated our staff’s friendliness, the comfort of your room, our breakfast, and the style and care of our hotel and gardens. It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your stay and that our facilities contributed to making your visit a pleasant one. We’re sorry you found the pool water a little too cool during your stay. Allow us to share that, being located at over 1100 meters above sea level, our mountain setting naturally offers milder temperatures, and it can take a little longer for the water to warm up—especially after an unusually rainy month like this past May. Fortunately, the weather has improved in recent days, and we hope that, should you visit us again, you’ll have the chance to fully enjoy the pool. Thank you once again for choosing us, and for your lovely words. We hope to welcome you back soon for another relaxing stay! Warm regards,Hotel IRIS

Verified reviewWe stayed in two different rooms at this hotel - the first was a twin/double, which they moved the twin beds together at our request; the second was the superior double room. Both rooms were good and had a nice view, although the superior double was definitely the better of the two - nicer bed, had a bathtub, nicer bathroom. The breakfast was good, with fresh pastries and meats/cheeses, and fruits. We also ate dinner here a couple nights which included first and second courses and dessert, and you can get a very nice hot chocolate and biscuits from the bar in front of reception. Bonus if you like animals: There was a friendly dog and cute cat living outside the hotel (the staff advised they don’t belong to the hotel, but it was nice to see and play with them every morning).
The only complaint would be the fact the heating elements (in both rooms) didn't seem to work consistently. We're Australian, so we don't have these features and maybe don't know how to properly use them, but having turned the nozzle "on" it would fluctuate between hot and cold (without us having changed anything). Maybe this was controlled by the hotel overall, but in either situation it wasn't reliable to dry wet clothes/towels.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for sharing your detailed experience with us. We are delighted to know that you enjoyed the comfort of both rooms, especially the superior double with its enhanced amenities and lovely view. It’s wonderful to hear that you appreciated the fresh breakfast, our dinners, and the little indulgences like hot chocolate and biscuits from the bar. We’re glad the presence of our furry friends added an extra touch of joy to your mornings, even if they aren’t officially part of the hotel—sometimes, the little unexpected things make a stay even more memorable! We appreciate your feedback regarding the heating system. We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced. Our heating is designed to provide comfort, and we regret that it didn’t function as expected during your stay. We will thoroughly review and address this to ensure it’s consistent and easy to use for all our guests in the future. Your thoughtful feedback helps us to improve, and we truly value it. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to provide an even better experience next time. Warm regards, Hotel IRIS

Verified reviewWe stayed here out of ski season, so a lot of the surrounding shops and restaurants in Pescasseroli were closed, the hotel more than made up for this. The staff were the highlight, always helpful and accommodating. This was evident in the room upgrade we got, the late evening drinks they made us and the recommendations they were happy to give us on the local area. Our room was lovely, clean and comfortable, and the upgrade meant we got a balcony, which we took full advantage of for having our breakfast outside in the sun. The bar and restaurant wasnt to big, so it felt welcoming and comfortable. The hotel itself is a short walk (10 mins) into the centre of Pescasseroli so it's not only convenient but you also get to feel a little more secluded. Highly recommend this hotel. Not forgetting the homemade biscuits we had from the bar were delightful!
Nothing to dislike!
