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.).

We had a lovely stay at Il Vicario. The surroundings are beautiful. The owners are very hospitable and helpful and have great tips on the area and food. In addition, it is also lovely to have dinner in the evening. They cook wonderfully, the food is served with nice matching wines.

United StatesIt would have been absolutely perfect if there was more of a view of the countryside from our room or the patio.
A picturesque historic vicarage, just 10 minutes from San Gimignano. The room was cozy, the breakfast had lots of fresh food, juice, and coffee. The owner was very friendly and gave us great suggestions for activities. We also took the cooking class, which was great fun and great dishes

Katia and Fulvio were the best hosts we ever had. Very helpful and we felt like at home. We took a cooking class, that we read is best in the area, and it was true. Food we made was so simple yet so delicious and previous to that my only achievement was to make a good sandwich and not to burn water. The area is like from Italian movie, nice and quiet and fairly close to everything around, if you planning to see other Tuscan cities. They will give you tips of the places you should go and see and car parks, so you don't have to walk far

Very friendly owners! We were warm welcomed with a glass of Vernaccia wine. At night we had the most wonderful dinner here for a good price: you should definitely stay and eat here!!! Also very good breakfast. Nice room with airconditioning. Excellent base for exploring San Gimignano and surroundings.

HungaryIl Vicario is amazing and authentic place. Katia and Fulvio are nice and kind hosts. The location is perfect, if you want to organize daily tours around in Toscana. Fulvio gives you the best tricks and tips to find always the best parking places, sight sightseeings, directions. The cooking class is amazing, breakfast, atmosphere and rooms are perfect. Don't forget to buy some olive oil from them. We will come back ones :)

We’ve liked everything. The property is a historical mansion build in 1300, very well preserved, cosy and clean. It’s location is perfect if you want to visit the main cities of Tuscany and medieval localities such as San Gimignano (10-min drive), Volterra or Monteriggioni, but in the same time staying in a beautiful location surrounded by olive trees and vine plantations. The owner, Fulvio was the nicest host and a great chef. The dinner he prepared was super delicious, being used local ingredients, and for each dish, local wine was also served. You must eat here and have this experience.

GermanyAs we were here in winter it was very dark and the windows are rather small. The light in the dinner/breakfast room was not very strong, it could have been more comfortable. The food was nice but unfortunately pretty cold already when we got it and the bread (dinner and breakfast) was a bit dry. From what we read here we expected more from the food (dinner as well as breakfast) but we only spent one night here so this is probably not representative!
Really cute little place in a wonderful surrounding. The owners were extremely kind and we felt very welcome. In the evening it was possible to book a home cooked dinner menu for 30€ per person which was a very fair price for four courses and different wines. The food was basic but tasty and they made a vegetarian option with no problem. The room was very warm and cosy, which is not natural in these old stone houses in winter! Plus, as it was located in the middle of the hills and vinyards, it was super quiet.
