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.).

Room was tad small but thats to be expected in a city like Valletta and the fabulous outside space more than made up for it! Also the hot water takes a very long time to come through and bathroom floor floods

Verified reviewThe feeling of living in the building which belonged to some knight (probably), touch of long history. Perfect location for the people who love exploring the town by foot. Amazing view from the rooftop. Very attentive staff. Overall, we made a good choice be selecting Palazzo Ignazio.
A little boring choice of food for breakfast, but since we had a wide selection of different food in town, breakfast was not important. But all food offered in the morning was always fresh and of good quality.

Verified reviewExcellent location. Staff were excellent, breakfast very good. Very good aircon conditioning. Roof top views amazing.
Understand it’s a very old property. But some of the cleanliness could be better. Like the bathrooms and soft furnishings. Also understand that the streets are very narrow and you can hear the traffic etc. the hotel does supply some ear plugs for this. However This street noise is the same throughout all of Valletta. The balconies could have a bit more privacy with the next door room.

Verified reviewI was received by Suman who looked after me when I came out of hours way before my check-in. What a beautiful soul. Angelique and Suman were genuinely sincere from the start to the end and I felt so looked after. This hotel is really lovely and the room is quite large and very nice. It has the best rooftop sunset view in Valetta. This is definitely a boutique stay. I was surrounded by picturesque sea views, restaurants, entertainment and churches!!!
Didn’t stay long enough

Verified reviewExcellent location. Friendly staff. Modern rooms with comfortable firm bed and pillows. Got an early check-in. AC and TV worked normally (as they should).
One staff member unexpectedly said that management had told him to look around the room (when I hadn't reported any problems) but didn't say what he was looking for. He came in, looked around for <1 minute, and then left. Can't help feel that I was being checked upon! Window curtains/blinds didn't fit the window and so bright light woke me up in the morning earlier than I had wanted to. Shower area door was not flush with floor and so water from shower leaked onto the bathroom floor. No spa facilities.

Verified reviewThank you for upgrading me to sea view! Best way to finish my Malta tour. The view from the rooftop terrace was amazing. Very nice and helpful staff in reception, cafe and rooftop restaurant, it was a pleasure. Super location in old town, close to everything: view points, museums, eateries, hop-on-hop off bus, walking distance to bus station. Very comfortable rooms in very nice design.
