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 reviewStaff is kind and always smiling
The property does not live up to its star rating. The room has several unacceptable issues: • Torn sunshades, • A toilet unusable due to its position too close to the shower, • A temporary air conditioner, • Pigeon dirt everywhere, • A fridge that does not work (in summer). And I could go on, but I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
Dear Guest, it's surprising that neither you nor your companion ever reported any problems or inconveniences to reception during your stay. Regarding the portable air conditioner, we apologized immediately becouse the room's A/C system failed due to the two storms that struck Elba Island one day after the other, as reported by national news sources. The repair was carried out as soon as the replacement part was found locally. We look forward to welcoming you back to our hotel. Best regards.

Verified reviewThe outside building looks nice and the pool is nice too.
This is not a 4 star hotel! It has not been renovated since maybe the ‘60! Not very clean, the room facilities are non-existent and the room smells oh humid.
We are genuinely disappointed and badly surprised by your hurtful review. You didn’t even mention your concerns with us during check-out, despite us having already seen your negative review. We don't have the presumption of being perfect and we always try to take criticism in a constructive way and to improve more and more but in this case your review is just a mix of falsehoods and gratuitous malice. Moreover, when you write “scam” you go further a correct review, in order to discredit our reputation. We can’t bear it, that’s why we warned BOOKING.com B.V. to remove your unfair review. Lacking this, we will give the broadest mandate to our lawyer to proceed representing our legal rights. Best regards – CEO PHN

Verified reviewThere was a great garden with a swimming pool, an authentic historical building (literally), a clean room, and the hospitality of the personnel. Outside of house boarding, the dinner was great.
Hard mattress, low-effective air conditioning, simple continental (Italian) breakfast.

Verified reviewThe receptionist lady was very kind and helpfull with everything.
The other staff was rude. Without reservation we wanted just a dinner in the hotel and the waiter asked the chef about it and we were Good to go. But soon after we took our seat asked the price and from that point we got the worst hospitality we could get. I understand the part that they don’t like tourist but we came kindly to spend our money there and we barely got an acceptible service. And we asked for a breakfast take away box because our ship sailed early in the morning and then forget about it which was bad because we payed for the breakfast so overall it was a terrible experience
Mr. Petrenyi, we are really sorry to hear you had such an experience despite no signal of discomfort has been showed during your stay. Big surprise also in order of our Staff rudeness. Hunderds reviews received, attest Staff empaty and kindness... Moreover, if you leave your breakfast, why sould be our default? Best Regards. PHN

Verified reviewI had such a great stay! The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming — always around and happy to help. The place is beautiful, easy to get around, and in a perfect location. I loved all the little extras: the pool, the shuttle to the beach, and plenty of other comforts that made everything super relaxing. It really felt like a break. I’ll definitely be back!

The television is very small. Very few plugs to charge the mobile. The water pressure in the shower.

Verified reviewI was very surprised that this facility has 4 stars. Only the interior of the room and the foyer can give the impression that you are in a four-star hotel. The cleanliness of the room and bathroom is a plus. The staff at the reception were polite but very formal. The hotel's pleasant surroundings
The whole room stank because of the unpleasant smell of sewage coming from the bathroom. Suprise was towels that are slightly thicker than paper. Total lack of WIFI signal in the second building both in the room and in the corridor despite the assurance in the description of the facility that WIFI is available. For me this is unacceptable in a four-star hotel. I asked the staff at the reception but they did not help in the situation. Breakfasts served in the manner of the Covid-19 pandemic. No self-service. Confectionery, bread, cold cuts, cheeses served only by staff behind plastic windows. Which, when there were more guests, meant that we had to stand in line, because at times everything was served by one person, who tried to do it quickly. The young waiters tried to deliver the coffee quickly (almost running) and were very polite. Instead of real fruit juices, the hotel served fruit-flavored drinks and this is unacceptable in a four-star hotel. One morning I couldn't leave the building to go to another building for breakfast because in the hotel corridor two very aggressively behaving large dogs without a muzzle and without an owner stood in my way. I had to wait until the owner appeared. If the hotel accepts guests with dogs, it should require at least a muzzle if dogs move unattended in the public space of the hotel.

Verified reviewThe staff was very helpful and courteous, even when faced with many guest queries. I found they always tried their best to meet the expectations of guests. The reception staff as well as the restaurant staff, pool bar staff, house cleaning staff were friendly and attentive. The pool is very nice, surrounded by lush vegetation.
Aside from the staff of the hotel, I would not recommend the hotel. Air conditioning was dated and barely worked. Our room had a strange odor and although the housekeeping staff cleaned very well, the room just felt like an attic room where would be a free guest for a night. Perhaps the rooms on the lower floors are nicer.

Verified review- nice old building with a certain charm - big room
Breakfast: there isn't a war going on at Elba and the waiter shouldn't ration portions of food to the guests and decide that 2 slices of cheese is enough or deny pastries with an explanation that you alreday had one. Very, very limited choice of food at breakfast - no vegetables and the fact that guests are not allowed to take their own food.
Thank you for your review. Regarding your breakfast experience, we understand that tastes can vary greatly from person to person. We regret that we did not meet your personal expectations. We hope you will consider giving us another chance in the future so that we can offer you a more satisfying experience. Regards.
