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):
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.
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.).

I honestly don’t even know where to begin describing this incredible experience at the hotel ❤️ The location is absolutely breathtaking – like stepping into a dream come true. The hospitality was warm and genuine, the food was on another level, and the attention to detail in every aspect of our stay was just flawless. Everything about the hotel felt magical and perfect. The restaurants were so delicious and beautifully curated that we chose to dine there almost every evening during our stay. And the breakfast… wow, wow, wow!!! Truly unforgettable. The staff were simply extraordinary – caring, attentive, and embracing, while at the same time professional and refined. We even got to know a few wonderful staff members personally. A special mention to Nicole at the bar – such a gem! She noticed even the smallest details, like when a fruit and cheese plate was empty, or when I didn’t enjoy a cocktail, and she immediately acted with grace and thoughtfulness. Those little things made us feel so valued and cared for. The hotel itself is stunning – filled with history, beauty, and charm that leaves you speechless. If I had to point out one thing, it would be the spa treatments. While the spa facilities are absolutely gorgeous – the Jacuzzi pool, the sauna, and the overall relaxing atmosphere – the massage itself didn’t quite meet our expectations. It felt a bit too soft and unclear, even though we asked for stronger pressure at the start. We usually enjoy massages a lot, but here it wasn’t quite our style. That said, the spa space itself is wonderful, calming, and beautifully designed. Overall, in every other way, the hotel and its amazing staff went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. It was truly a magical experience, and we are endlessly grateful. 🌟 We will most definitely be coming back! 🌟

Germanyincredible place. cleaning personell, receptionists, waiters and waitresses, masseurs and the bartender - they all create a magical experience with not only tactfulness but warmth and authenticity. the facilities are beautiful- everythings clean and charming with the home of the hotel being an old monastery that was respectfully renovated. the changeable lights in the shower add a playful touch. cortona itself being a place of art and culture with mountain views made this the perfect stay for me.

EVERYTHING!! Monasteto di Cortona might be the nicest place I’ve ever stayed. Everything is exceptional. The rooms are spectacular, the staff are all first class, the food is of an extremely high caliber, the pool area is private and very classy and the 14th century monastery itself is to die for. Don’t even look at any other properties. This delivers on every level.

Fabulous stay here the staff were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The pool area is quiet and very comfortable. Good food and bar, room was kept super clean and tidy. Great location right in Cortona so it’s easy to wander into town for dinner. It’s a haven from the busy life outside.

This was our second stay at this beautiful hotel. The service is exceptional. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure that all guests thoroughly enjoy their stay. The breakfast is fabulous - the service, presentation, variety, generous portions, and food quality. The attention to detail is remarkable and greatly enhances the guest experience.

United KingdomThe parking situation is a bit of a nightmare but this was known before booking and the staff did contact before our stay notifying us of this. Being pedantic there was a lack of storage in the room and the small single use bathroom products aren’t the most environmentally friendly.
The property is beautiful with the large opening hall, attractive room and lovely pool area. The staff on the whole were great in particular the breakfast team being stand out.
