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 reviewLoved the private beach and the balcony overlooking the sea. The room was spacious and the bathroom tastefully decorated.
The facilities were a bit outdated for the price and for a 4-star hotel.

Verified reviewThe view was great due to the hotel location.
The hotel was really old fashioned, and the balcony of the rooms were so close with one and other that you had to pay attention to privacy. My friend commented, ¨feeling like a school doom bunk bed up and down.¨
Thank you very much for your review. We are glad that you appreciated the beautiful view thanks to our hotel’s location. We are sorry that your experience did not fully meet your expectations, and we hope that you enjoyed the recently renovated room. We also appreciate your friend’s humorous comment, but we would like to clarify that some rooms are equipped with standard single beds, not bunk beds. Just for future guests reading.

Verified reviewEverything - whilst the location isn’t in main Cefalù town, you don’t need to leave the hotel because it has everything. The in hotel restaurant for dinner is also amazing
I think I was expecting more from breakfast - considering the price and the restaurant standard for dinner, I was hoping for better cooked options and more variety at breakfast.

Verified reviewThe property is beautiful with a breathtaking view ! I loved the breakfast every morning , the beautiful beach and all the staff was very friendly and accommodating.
The only thing I can see might be a problem for someone with leg/ hip pain is the many steps down and up to get to the beach.

Verified reviewBeautiful location and terrace, gym available all day, hotel has its own beach with free umbrellas and beds. The staff us very nice and helpful. My room and terrace has its own entrancec lots of greenery around. The parking is free for hotel guests. Takes likes 20 minutes to get to Cefalù centre on foot, which is a nice stroll. I had about 5 reservations all around Sicily and this was one of the best ones - I even asked if there were more nights available, but sadly, there were not.
Breakfast could be richer, but I was staying only one night, so not a problem for me.
