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 breakfast was very good and the room was clean and most of all the staff was amazing. We had a problem in the A/C , the staff especially Simone took immediate action trying to find another room but the hotel was fully booked so she suggested booking another room in a nearby hotel by the time the maintenance team fixed the A/C. The A/C was immediately fixed . That was a remarkable customer service. Thank you Simone for your professionalism. Also many thanks to Wael and Simon who were very helpful.
Surprisingly there were no tissues in the room but it seems that in the supermarkets also they don’t sell tissue boxes. Maybe this is a local behavior not to use tissues.

Verified reviewIt's closeness to the Duomo and train station (we arrived by train from Verona and took the train to Pisa, an hour away, for the day while we were in Florence). The spectacular view from the breakfast area. Very good breakfast, spacious comfortable room on the fifth floor at the front of the hotel. Quiet. Friendly welcoming staff. Highly recommend!

Verified reviewThis hotel has an excellent location. It is easy to walk to the hotel from Firenze SMN Station even while pulling a travel suitcase. From the outdoor terrace of the restaurant on the 6th floor, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral. The front desk staff were also very kind—during check-in, they spoke slowly and clearly to make it easier for me to understand. The condition of the hotel room was excellent. It was very clean and well-prepared, and the bathroom was also spotless. The hotel is not only close to Firenze SMN Station but also within walking distance of major attractions such as the Florence Central Market, the Accademia Gallery, and the Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral. Within a 20-minute walk from the hotel, you can reach Piazza della Repubblica, Piazza della Signoria, the Palazzo Vecchio, and the Uffizi Gallery. If you ask the front desk, they will call a taxi for you at any time, and the taxi usually arrives at the hotel entrance within five minutes, which is very convenient.
This hotel was truly excellent, but the air conditioning was so strong that it actually felt like a downside. We visited in July, when it was swelteringly hot outside, yet the hotel corridors were cooled to the point that they felt cold. (Perhaps the cold air from the hallway was flowing into the room.) The room itself was also very cold, to the extent that we had to turn off the air conditioner and eventually sleep with the window slightly open. In hindsight, I somewhat regret not speaking to the staff at the time about adjusting the air conditioning in the hallway and the guest room.

Verified reviewThe staff was really nice and accommodating. There was a nice breakfast offering everything morning on the top floor of this hotel. It’s a smaller hotel in an amazing location, the Duomo and museum of Statue of David are just steps away from the hotel. Lots of good restaurants nearby and walkable from the train station! Last but not least, the rooms were so cool temperature wise as Americans are used to cold hotel rooms, and this place had great Air Conditioning for the room. The bed and pillows were the most comfortable I’ve ever encountered while travelling internationally. I would without a doubt stay at this hotel again in the future!
If there was anything to not like it was maybe the size of the room was smaller but it was not an issue for me. I’ve stayed in smaller rooms!
