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 are 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 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):
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.
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.).

United KingdomI prefer bottled water not from the tap on the breakfast table. The fridge in my room was noisy but the owner switched off as soon as I asked. The lighting was too low for old eyes.
Breakfasts were very good, rooms were quiet and had plenty of space with very good bathrooms. The staff gave us better rooms than we had booked so that one of our party needn’t use steps to the attic room. We were offered a take away breakfast as we were leaving early.

United StatesThe property was wonderful! If I had to pick one thing to change, I just wish there had been a drinking glass in the bathroom. But that’s no big deal.
Excellent location and extremely helpful owner. The room was huge and our stay included breakfast. Can’t say enough about how helpful the owner is!

United StatesThe only thing I didn’t like was the bathroom. I am a taller person and it was very cramped in the bathroom. The roofline sloped in there and I had to duck down any time I was in the bathroom. Shower stall was very crowded for me as well
I liked the location and the look of the hotel. Very Italian. I had a little charming room in the attic. It was close to where I wanted to be in the city too.

United StatesOn La Violette our room had no AC so we had to keep the windows opened which was noisy.
The location was great and Claudio the manager/owner was a sweetheart! He made sure that we were comfortable and everything was ok. He gave us great tips on where to eat good Lucchese food. I did not stay at this location. He ended up transferring us to his other B&B - la Violette

CanadaWe would just suggest a little bit better maintenance in some areas, e.g. get a broken kitchen drawer fixed.
The location is excellent, in the historic town, close to all points of interest and the train station. The B&B itself is in a some kind of a medieval tower, so the setting is interesting, authentic and charming, but unusual. Our room was tiny, with antique pieces of furniture, had a kitchenette with a fridge, witch was convenient. Breakfast is good (fresh coffee, juice, pasties, cold cuts, cakes, nuts), and it is served in a historically decorated room with a big oval table, so it feels like you are at someone's house, but this gives you a great opportunity to chat with fellow-travellers. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

GermanyThe location was perfect for exploring Lucca within the old city walls. Also within 10minutes of the train station. We loved how old the rooms were, and kitted out with cool antiques. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. We would definitely stay here again and will recommend to friends and family.

United Kingdom15 minute delay in obtaining access on first arrival. Some issues one day with water pressure in the bathroom. Not a problem for me - but beware the steep, open tread stairs to the attic rooms. As the name suggests the attic rooms are at the top of the house with sloping roofs - could be an issue for taller people (say over 175cm, 5ft 10 in).
Excellent central location in the historic town. Claudio and his team were very welcoming and friendly. A good continental breakfast was available. Extremely comfortable bed in a decent sized room. Daily housekeeping was excellent. Overall very good value.

GermanyVery thin walls. We could hear everything from the neighbors. It's on the noisy shopping street and could hear everything with open window. The breakfast was not as good as expected (we were the last) and the lady that was serving didn't show much enthusiasm in helping. If you take an attick room be aware that the toilet doesn't flash that easily and the shower is very small.
Close to all attractions. The welcoming. We got the possibility to upgrade the room.
