Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaWe stayed in room 206 which had a problem with the shower which leaked water profusely all over the bathroom floor. We reported it to management on check out so hopefully it will be fixed. We also missed not having a kettle and some tea making facilities in the room. We had to request it as room service for a charge.
The hotel is clean and comfortable and only a very pleasant 10-15 min walk into old town Cefalu. It also sits right across from the beach with great views of the sea from the room balcony and of the sea and Cefalu from the breakfast room. Breakfast was very good and the underground car park is tight but really handy.

United States of AmericaAll was good. Nothing to dislike!
The people at Victoria Palace (VP) were wonderful -- warm, friendly, attentive and always willing to assist with anything such beach towels, umbrellas, making dinner reservation at a related hotel, and they provided coffee With Milk even after 11a! - Lol (some places in the area refused to give me milk with my coffee after dinner!). VP is the definition of hospitality! The room had a balcony with a beach view and everything was nice inside. Our booking included breakfast which was on the roof top, and was more than just coffee and pastry -- it included eggs, and meat slices, cereal and pancakes at times. The beach is right across the street, and the onsite kitchen accommodated our request for "pizza to go" (which they sliced for us) so we can enjoy our lunch at the beach. We enjoyed coffee and drinks in the hotel lounge area before going out to dinner, and we saw many locals also came to enjoy this time of day at VP. We would gladly go back to stay at VP again.

We loved to stay here at this property old town Cefalù just down a walkway by the beach about seven minutes in about 12 minutes you could actually reach the cathedral from this hotel. It’s extremely open air and spacious and they offer free parking, which was a benefit since we had a car. The staff was amazing. They have a bar and Gelateria downstairs which is incredible.
