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...).

Everything was great, we really enjoyed our stay with our little daughter. Super place spacious room and very friendly staff. If we come to Catania again we will be happy to stay again

United States of AmericaMy first night was in a single room, before my husband arrived the following day. The room was small with no air conditioning and only a small window in a bathroom. It was dark, very hot and uncomfortable. However, the other room for the next two nights for the two of us was fantastic. If the weather were not so hot, I am sure the single room would have been just fine as the price was very reasonable for what the room was like.
The location was absolutely stellar! It was in the center of town near the fish market and the main piazza by the duomo. Yet, it was so quiet as it was on a side street. The owner, his son and the housekeeping staff were all so sweet, accommodating and lovely. The room that my husband and I had was huge, the bed and bathroom were super comfortable and clean and the amenities like the coffee and and refrigerator were a nice touch. We will stay there again if we have an opportunity to return to Catania.

United KingdomExtremely good location one minute from the main Piazza. A few minutes from the bus station and the fish market. We had a really incredible room with very high ceiling reminiscent of an old Italian palazzo. The room was freshly refurbished. It was noisy outside as it is so central but the room itself was relatively quiet as well sound proofed with windows closed. We found it overall good value for money and deserving its 2 stars.

RomaniaThe hotel it’s a 2 star one, so the appearance it could be improved a little bit. also the bathroom could be a little bit more cleaner (the toilet is a little bit old and gray), but overall it was a great choice if you are not a really picky person and you appreciate a great position and a clean bed
the property is 30 seconds away from the centre, you are basically in the heart of catania. it was really easy to visit everything because everything starts from that centre. near you it’s the fish market (3 minutes away), cathedral of Agatha (30 seconds away) and so on. there is plenty of restaurants near the location and also shops. The person that welcomed us was really nice and he offered us tips for the place. We arrived earlier but he was great and said everything is fine. the room is big, it’s exactly like in the picture and has tv, air conditioning, big windows, big bathroom, clean sheets and towels. The room was cleaned every day. it worth definitely the money and we do recommend it to any couple.

United KingdomFantastic location, really close to the Cathedral Square, Greek theatre and other interesting sights. There are lots of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. The street looks a little run down but we felt very safe and it was quiet. Our room was large and the bed was comfortable. This is a budget hotel, so don't expect great luxury; it has everything you need for a short break including toiletries, lots of towels and a good shower. A great choice if you basically need somewhere to sleep and you're out exploring during the day.
