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.).

The location of this Hotel is very good to access from the Station. Most of famous sites of this city can be easily accessed by walk. Classical and renewal room was clean and cozy. Breakfast was good.

CanadaThe windows are not soundproof, so street noise continued late into the night, which made it hard to sleep. The breakfast was decent but nothing special or memorable. The hotel felt overpriced for what it offered, although this seems to be the norm in Florence, particularly during the high season.
Hotel Palazzo Benci is right in the heart of Florence’s historical centre, just minutes from the Duomo. There are numerous restaurants and bars right outside the hotel, making it easy to enjoy the local food and nightlife. The hotel has a small, cozy feel that adds to its charm. The single room, although compact, was clean and comfortable.

United KingdomNo where to hang damp towels. Bathroom had only small light over the mirror. No main ceiling light, not good at night or darker months. Would have liked a kettle to make a hot drink morning and night.
Central location with a good size room. Serviced every day. Breakfast needed more fresh fruit, mainly apple, pieces of orange and kiwi were a slither and wasn't topped up for the number of people. Plenty of croissants bread, but pastries same each day.

AustraliaThere was nowhere to hang the towels in the bathroom, but I think the hotel was looking into this. Didn't like shower products in the little sachets, I think a pump action bottle attached to the wall is more practical. The sachet was hard to tear and not much inside. Tea & coffee in the room would've been nice too ^ maybe 1 bottle of water.
Lovely large room overlooking San Lorenzo Church. Double glazing ensured a peaceful night. The staff were helpful and friendly. Hotel clean and tidy, everyone did a good job. Great breakfast and breakfast room, staff were attentive and kept the breakfast room spotless. Bed was comfortable and quality towels. Loved our stay here.
