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.).

Shower didn’t have hand shower. We’re bicycle touring , they had secure storage but charged €5 per bike. We’ve been touring since March , hotels every night. This is the first place where they charge for water in room fridge. Also toiletries are minimal.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Hotel Touring. We are pleased to know that you appreciated the location of our property and found the room quite pleasant.

Verified reviewVery friendly staff. Nice room, but a bit too small for 4 people. Good breakfast
The air conditioner blows directly into your head where you sleep, which can be a problem. The window in the room looks out onto a wall and a work platform. If you are claustrophobic, you may have a problem. It was ok for one night, but if we were staying for more days, I would definitely request another room with at least some natural light.

Verified reviewLovely spacious room and bathroom. Excellent breakfast and attending staff. Very helpful and informative reception team. Great location close to sightseeing and eating out options.
Unfortunately, we may have visited at a bad time due to extra hot weather plus when renovations might have been active. We were not aware the hotel is a climate responsible venue who (amongst other things) limits summer air conditioning to the setting of a minimum of 22⁰ C. This was far too warm, particularly at night when trying to sleep. Yes, the heat wave was to blame, but the hotel should have allowed the reduction of the air conditioning temperature to a comfortable setting during such weather conditions. As a result, the airconditioner was leaking water onto the floor, making it slippery and wetting my footwear. We would never have booked our stay if we had known the hotel management didn't place short-term client comfort during heat wave conditions above much longer term climate responsibly initiatives. Additionally, when returning to our room on several occasions over 3 days, the lift and our room smealt of a sewer type strong odour. Possibly a renovation issue, maybe. Or perhaps another climate responsible initiative. Lastly, the hotel was hard to find on first arrival due to no external signage. It's possibly a renovation issue, but at least a temporary paper sign in the front window would have helped visitors.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback about your stay with us. We’re pleased to know that you appreciated the spaciousness of your room, the quality of our breakfast, our central location, and the helpfulness of our staff — all aspects we are deeply committed to maintaining at the highest level. We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience caused by the exceptionally high temperatures during your visit. Please allow us to inform you that we are currently undergoing a complete renovation of our air conditioning system to improve its efficiency and ensure greater comfort, even during extreme heatwaves. Regarding the odor you mentioned, we would like to clarify that this is unfortunately due to Ferrara’s municipal sewage system. On particularly hot days, this can occasionally cause unpleasant smells even in the historic city center. While this is beyond our direct control, we do understand the discomfort it may have caused and apologize for the inconvenience. We are also aware that our current exterior signage may have made it more difficult to locate the hotel. This is a temporary situation due to the renovation work, and we are working to improve this as soon as possible. We greatly value your feedback, as it helps us improve. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back once our renovations are complete, for a more comfortable and enjoyable stay. Warm regards, Staff Hotel Touring
