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 reviewThe palazzo is from 16th century and just so beautifully restored. It was a priviledge to see the different rooms as most of the palazzo is a museum, the 14 rooms are situated all over the palazzo and our room had a terrace to the lake. Just beautiful! Thank You Laura and your kind husband for chatting with us and being so friendly! We will return!!! And Bolsena is a very nice little town!

Verified reviewThis property has all the appeal of actually staying in a medieval palace. In fact, there are tours through the public rooms, that number in the dozens, I believe. Starting with walking through the immense entrance, worthy of all noble persons, there comes a wine tasting cellar then a reception. My room had 18 foot ceilings w frescoes & floors were polished brick tiles. Bathroom was thoroughly modern w a very large walk in shower, so appreciated! The staff spoke fluent English and we're always kind and informative. Perfect location w 2 cafes plus popular pizza shop in a delightful small square the Rocca w a fountain. This is a totally special stay!
I was extremely tired when I arrived. It may have been why I couldn't understand what door was the front entrance. Or misunderstood the museum sign out front also included the hotel. It's such a surprise!

Verified reviewThe staff are very friendly. The decor is spectacular. The painted bedroom walls are so fantastic My private garden was contemplative.
The front door bell is a little confusing I didn't quite work out the light switch combination. There are pretty irrelevant.

Verified reviewA truly unique experience — staying in a real palace! The interiors are absolutely stunning: magnificent ceilings, antique furniture, and a strong sense of history everywhere. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable, and you can wander through the palace for hours just taking it all in. The staff are wonderful — incredibly kind, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. You can also taste local wines here and join a guided tour of the palace. There’s convenient parking nearby, and good breakfast spots just around the corner. It was an unforgettable stay — one of the highlights of our trip!

Verified reviewGreat spot! Near to everything, but on the other hand Bolsena is a very small town. I liked the staff the were so helpful and friendly. And i had a very small cozy garden. Like my own back patio.And i absolutely loved that they had proper blanket, in this case, down blanket for bed and lovely fragrance on the soap in the shower.
Not very clean in the room. Spiderwebs in the toilet above the bed in the corners and dead bugs on the floor, ants and silverfish. The outdoor garden furniture had bird shit on them, have nicer outdoor furniture and it would have been nice with some bug repellent for the garden cus it A LOT of flying bugs coming in from there if the doors are open, and also a clothesline for clothes if you have washed or just want to refresh them. Missed to get coffee in the morning. Such a big place and nothing is being used. Why not have an afternoon tea room!? Or Morning coffee with a dolce €2 or €3 in one of those big un used lovely rooms!? Sad to see the "die out"

Verified reviewThe most amazing place. Our room was large and comfortable, the bathroom was modern and the facility is a 500 year old palace. The rooms of the palace are amazing. Decorated with antiques and comfortable furniture. The location is right in the middle of town. An exceptional experience.
Nothing, I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Verified reviewOne of the most unique hotels I have ever stayed in. As the other reviews mention it’s just like staying in a museum overnight. The hosts were helpful and the location is perfect, in the heart of town so you can walk to the lakefront, the castle, groceries, parking etc. I will 100% try to stay here again
The mattress is pretty hard but it’s a 1500s palace so
