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 reviewLovely welcome from the owner who arranged to garage our bikes Central location
The room was dingy and dismal … quite different from what we had expected from the Booking.com photos There is no outside garden or courtyard Guests are invited to use the coffee and tea making facilities in the breakfast room. Despite there being a fridge, there was no milk for tea. In the morning we politely asked the lady who was arranging breakfast for some cold milk. We were told very rudely that we would have to wait until breakfast was served 45 minutes later. We went out and bought our own coffee. This was the most unfriendly response we experienced in many weeks of travelling in Italy. She had a real attitude and should not be working in hospitality. The breakfast itself borne little resemblance to the lovely photos … no fruit at all and nothing healthy.

Verified reviewVery convenient location right in the center of Montalcino. What goes along with that, though, is complicated parking if you have a car. Once we found the big parking lot, it was a lot less stressful for leaving the car. It did require a bit of a walk to get into the town from there, but we anticipated that just knowing Montalcino. It was a little tricky to find the B&B with the car for initial unloading and there are stairs (again, we expected that though) in all directions including the entry to the B&B. Overall, a wonderful stay in a very convenient location.

Verified reviewThe room was furnished with great attention to detail. The location is very central and the view over Tuscany is stunning. We really enjoyed the breakfast, the quality of the food was very high. You can get a parking card for the public car park from your accommodation. (4 euros for 24 hours)
Shortly before my arrival, I received instructions on how to check in and was asked to provide my personal information. The information was very extensive and confusing for me. The instructions for parking were also not clear to me at first. (The accommodation is in the centre, i.e. in the ZTL area) I should have printed out a document to drive to the accommodation. Logically, this was no longer possible for me as we were already on the road. But when you arrive in Montalciono, everything is less complicated than it seems at first.

Verified reviewVery comfortable, nicely appointed rooms - small but totally adequate, lovely view, terrific breakfast arrangements, and excellent location - although lots of vertical stairs to get there.
Steep stairs and maybe more specific details re how to find it. It's just a bit obscure - although right there.
