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 reviewThis charming property exceeded all expectations! The room offered generous space and immaculate cleanliness, beautifully blending minimalist design with vintage elements. Our gracious host provided an exceptional breakfast featuring made-to-order scrambled eggs. I wholeheartedly recommend this outstanding accommodation
It's difficult to provide a constructive feedback, the only minor detail worth mentioning would be the toiletries. While the provided soap and shampoo were of good quality, they didn't quite match the exceptional standards set by the rest of this outstanding establishment
Thank you for your beautiful words Marco, it was really a pleasure to have you here as guests and I hope to see you again. I will look at other brands for the courtesy line, maybe it is also an opportunity to change. I wish you a wonderful summer! Chiara

Verified reviewSarteano is a perfect base to explore Tuscany, the historic centre is picture perfect with several good local restaurants within walking distance. The palazzo is beautiful. We stayed here as a family of 4 in the green room. Everything was perfect, comfortable beds, good strong shower, clean. Breakfast was a real treat, with homemade croissants, cakes, biscuits, jam, eggs etc. Chiara, the owner is warm and friendly. We would love to visit again.
Michelle, thank you for your kind words! We are really happy to know you felt so good at Palazzo and we hope to have you here again soon. All the best Chiara e Guido.

Verified reviewWonderful palace recently renewed, with great attention to detail both in the common areas and in the room. We’ve loved everything: the style, the atmosphere, the comfort, the silence, the breakfast, the suggestions for nearby activities. Chiara is a lovely host dedicated to preserve the roots of this historical building. Highly recommended for its authenticity and uniqueness!
Not for you if you’re searching for vibrant nightlife and want to reach the front door by car and to avoid stairs.

Verified reviewThis is really an 11. It is a beautifully restored historical property where Pope Pius III was born. Much attention has been paid to detail and Chiara is the sweetest most wonderful host. She makes the most delicious jams and pastries for breakfast. Our room (for 4 of us) was so beautiful, clean and spacious. The bathroom was large with high quality fittings. The property had a pretty living room and a cosy nook with armchairs for guests to utilise. There was nothing at all to fault. And this is a great quiet base from which to explore the southern part of Tuscany. Truly amazing stay!
Thanks so much Yvonne! An 11 is really a great gift for us, in addition to the wonderful compliments received in all fields. We are happy and moved. It was a great pleasure for us to meet you and to be able to contribute to your beautiful trip to Tuscany. See you soon! Chiara and Guido

Verified reviewVery accommodating hosts and lovely people. Breakfast was fresh made cakes and croissants and eggs if you wanted.
The town is very quiet and has very few restaurants.
