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.).

AustraliaLike all old buildings in Italy, they have quirks, The very last part of the entrance road is narrow and you need to drive carefully . If you want Holiday Inn sterility this is not the place for you.
A hideaway in the hills close to Cortona. It's a place which has been created with love and with professional skills. It is a cluster of old houses on a farm which has been turned into a variety of comfortable accommodation. A very good breakfast is included. You arrive as a stranger and reluctantly leave as past of the family.

ItalyThat we stayed only two nights! It deserves at least 3 nights.
Borgo Solamore is a very unique place, a small hamlet of old homes immerse in nature, with lovely views, extremely well restored, cozy, tasteful and spacious. Everything was perfect. Breakfast and dinner included. Very welcoming and professional hosts, we highly recommend it and we will do our best to return.

The Borgo Solamore is a gem! We got a little lost initially, but once we found it and met Alessandra, we fell in love with all of it- she and her son are wonderful people, and the grounds are gorgeous! She is the quintessential host, offering her best suggestions for experiencing Cortona and beyond . We genuinely treasured our time in Cortona at the Borgo Solamore. We hope to visit again one day ❤️

BelgiumOnly thing to mention is quite narrow road for the last 2-3 kilometers where you can miss the borgo. A couple of simple direction road signs could be helpful.
Ideal family "agriturismo" style is very close to what Borgo Solamore is, with its authentic rooms, warm and caring service and lovely breakfasts and dinners. We had great time by the pool which is clean and deep. The room was large, well equipped. Small but fully supplied kitchinet. One can say that the place is "far from everything", but for those who value nature, family time and can drive, it is a great experience..

AustraliaEverything was perfect.
We only intended to stay for 5 nights, but immediately extended our stay as we were so taken with the beauty and charm of this wonderful property. Allessandra and Gian Marco were perfect hosts, warm and funny and so welcoming to our family. They gave us wonderful tips on the area as well as insights into local culture and food. The breakfast was exceptionally good and our children looked forward to the different pastries each morning. We were lucky to experience two perfect Tuscan dinners prepared by Allesandra, paired with local wines recommended by Gian Marco. Incredible!! The pool was a welcome relief from the intense summer heat and Gian Marco was so gracious in keeping it lovely and clean and topping up the water after our kids had splashed about so much (sorry!!) I feel like I can’t say enough wonderful things about Borgo Solamore. You must experience it for yourself!

United StatesWe loved everything.
First off, Alessandra is amazing. A gracious host with encyclopedic knowledge of the surrounding areas, she was invaluable to us during the stay. The grounds were beautiful and the lodging chic but quaint. It’s a Tuscan escape with beautiful views and an amazing atmosphere. Breakfast was excellent and Alessandra handled all of the gluten free needs of me and my mom!

United StatesBorgo Solamore was a dream. Alessandra and her son have created an authentic Italian villa high in the hills of beautiful Tuscany. It was stunning, relaxing, and comfortable. We met some of the kindest people during our stay. Breakfast was HUGE and lovely. I enjoyed the yogurt, fresh fruit and coffee while my husband devoured 3-4 cornettos and freshly made bacon and eggs. The added bonus was Pinot, the precious little pup on the property who greeted us with kisses. It is a bit of a bumpy off-road ride to get there but nothing our rental couldn't handle and the views were well worth it. Our last night, Alessandra made us a four course meal with a regional red that was just incredible. Although I had to roll myself onto the plane the next day, 10/10 would stay again!
